據遲宗琳所在律所同事介紹，律所每年承擔100多起刑事和民事訴訟法律援助案件，以及200多起勞動爭議案件。由于服務對象多為農民工、家庭貧困人員、孤寡老人、殘疾人、婦女兒童，因此案件全部免費代理，而這些案件主要由遲宗琳負責。她經常忙到深夜。

Chi Zonglin from Yantai, in East China's Shandong province, devoted much of her career to helping migrant workers, poor families, elderly people living alone, people with disabilities, and women and children. Colleagues said she often worked late into the night handling legal aid cases free of charge.

公開資料顯示，遲宗琳是中共黨員，1983年出生，2019年被評選為“煙臺市優秀青年律師”，獲“煙臺好人”榮譽稱號；2022年獲評第八屆煙臺市道德模范；2023年榮膺煙臺市“最美女律師”“山東省優秀律師”。

Born in 1983, Chi received multiple honors in recent years, including Yantai's "Most Beautiful Lawyer" and "Outstanding Lawyer of Shandong Province".

5月10日，遲宗琳在山東菏澤因公出差時遭遇交通事故，經搶救無效不幸逝世，年僅42歲。事故發生后，她的妹妹強忍悲痛，第一時間聯系紅十字會，幫助姐姐實現捐獻眼角膜的遺愿。

5月22日，遺體告別儀式結束后，遲宗琳的遺體也按照其生前意愿完成捐獻。

After the accident on May 10 in Heze, Shandong province, her younger sister contacted the Red Cross to fulfill Chi's wish of donating her corneas. Following a farewell ceremony on Friday, her body was also donated according to her wishes.

在法庭上，她堅守公平正義寸步不讓；在生活中，她親切和善、溫柔待人。然而，最令人敬仰的是，她連同一家七口人共同登記捐獻遺體和角膜。

2019年，遲宗琳與父親遲永東、母親、丈夫、妹妹及公婆一家七口，向萊州市紅十字會遞交遺體角膜捐獻志愿登記表，成為煙臺市首個以家庭為單位進行遺體角膜捐獻的家庭。

2021年，遲宗琳的父親遲永東在家中意外去世。家人沒有依照當地風俗設靈堂、擺花圈，而是遵從老人生前遺愿，當天便將遺體捐獻。

In 2019, Chi and six family members registered together as voluntary donors of bodies and corneas, becoming the first family in Yantai to do so. Her father's body was donated after his death in 2021.

遲宗琳曾表示，遺體捐獻是一件“利國、利己、利他人”的好事，希望用自己和家人的故事，帶動更多公眾加入遺體角膜志愿捐獻者的行列。

如今，她的名字也被刻在萊州市遺體角膜器官捐獻者紀念墻上，與父親遲永東的名字僅一行之隔。

Now, Chi's name has been engraved on Laizhou's donor memorial wall, just one line away from her father's.

“誠實守信、樂善好施、敬業奉獻”是遲宗琳為人處世奉行的基本準則。生前，她曾說道：“作為一個合格的黨員律師，你必須有忘我的精神，必須把自己的個人得失放得很低很低。”

During her lifetime, she once said that a qualified lawyer and Party member should "have a spirit of selflessness and place personal gains and losses very, very low".
