September 2021

 

We are pleased to announce that Senior Partner, C. K. Kwong and Partner Roy Leung sat for and passed the first Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) Legal Professional Examination which took place on 31st July 2021. This is part of a 3-year pilot programme launched to enable Hong Kong and Macau legal practitioners to obtain Mainland qualifications to practise as lawyers in GBA. Upon being qualified, Hong Kong legal practitioners are allowed to provide Mainland legal services in GBA on specified civil and commercial matters (including contentious and non-contentious matters) to which Mainland laws apply, after passing the qualifying examination and obtaining a practicing certificate.

 

We are proud of our firm’s partners joining the first batch of the Hong Kong legal professionals who have passed the PRC qualifying examination. Our firm’s ability to provide diversified legal services and safeguard the interests of our clients having a presence or operation in GBA will be further enhanced.
