Our firm continues to assist clients in dealing with the aftermaths of various statutorily sanctioned elections. The election laws in Hong Kong are unique, complicated (contained in several Ordinances) and in some cases, riddled with pitfalls. Hence the joke is, one may think our election law is deterring than encouraging people to take part in public office elections.

Lately we have again successfully applied to High Court (HCMP No.9 of 2013) for relief on behalf of an Election Committee election candidate to amend his election return; without that relief, the consequence could be draconian.

We have just received similar instructions to act for two new clients. We anticipate our knowledge and skill in the election law will help more people in future.

Our election law team comprises our senior partner Peter Sit, partner Roy Leung and senior trainee Alan Wong.
