Since its establishment in 1982, the Hong Kong office has provided an integrated legal service to clients doing business in North Asia and throughout the Asia Pacific region and internationally. The Hong Kong office advises on Hong Kong, English, New York and international law matters. 11 partners and over 60 fee-earners provide dedicated and comprehensive business law services in all major practice areas.
Our Hong Kong office works closely with other Lovells offices in key business centres of Asia including Beijing, Shanghai, Singapore, Tokyo and Ho Chi Minh City. As the Hong Kong member of the Pacific Rim Advisory Council (PRAC), we can provide our clients with an extensive network and access to legal resources in all relevant legal jurisdictions, allowing us to undertake virtually any transaction in Asia Pacific and globally.
We have a large number of lawyers fluent in Chinese, who speak Putonghua, Cantonese and several other Chinese dialects. They also speak Japanese, Vietnamese, French, German and a number of other Asian and European languages. We have a team of in-house Chinese and Japanese translators together with Chinese and Japanese documentation capability.
Lawyers in our Hong Kong office are actively involved in the affairs of the Hong Kong and Asian region. Many of them sit on governmental or business committees.
