Announcement - New member of The Lawyer Network in Hong Kong

Mr. Wong has over time developed his areas of legal specialty in handling complex commercial litigation cases and, above all, work pertaining to commercial and corporate matters including, among others, merger and acquisition and corporate finance. Conveyancing practice especially regarding its corporate aspect still takes up his significant working time when complicated legal issues have called for his personal attention.  In particular, he has overseen the legal documentation in quite a number of conveyancing projects involving project finance and sale of individual units (including first-hand properties) in such projects. He has indeed travelled quite broadly in Mainland China over the past 20 years and has thus developed and expanded his China-related practice, and not least in Shanghai.  As such, he has become the Chief Legal Representative of our Shanghai Representative Office set up with the approval of Ministry of Justice in Peking since 2004.  By the end of 2006, he had successfully fostered and thus established our firm's formal association with Jin Mao P.R.C. Lawyers in Hong Kong, it being one of the leading law firms in Shanghai.  Over the years, he has been involved personally in listing work of our firm and especially in the flourishing LSE and AIM in London and listing in Frankfurt and also in Hong Kong.  He has now been frequently involved in advising clients, notably China entrepreneurs and also the UK or some European clients, on the legal aspects (contentious or otherwise) of their business and operation as well as listing projects both within or without Hong Kong in his increasingly extensive cross-border practice.
