With economic development, technological progress and the continuous emergence of new forms and models of consumption, some platforms and operators violate or undermine the principle of fair competition. As an important part of consumer rights protection, in order to enhance consumers' awareness of rights protection, promote consumer fairness, and help the public avoid legal risks in consumer life, the director of the Criminal Law Professional Committee of Beijing Huixiang Law Firm on the morning of March 14Wang YaweiLawyer, invited to conduct an online law popularization lecture on "Legal Knowledge of Consumer Rights Protection" for Xidian Community in Gaobeidian District, Chaoyang District, Beijing.

In addition, he also provided guidance and suggestions on the collection and use of evidence in daily life and the process of safeguarding rights. Audience friends who attended the lecture said that they had benefited a lot from this course.
