Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a market shaped by global connectivity, entrepreneurialism and a highly sophisticated business environment.

We want to be the law firm that enables our clients - and our own people – to navigate the opportunities in Hong Kong with confidence. Hong Kong represents a unique global crossroads. It is where capital, talent and ideas across Greater China, Asia and the rest of the world converge, and thus offers a sophisticated legal and commercial environment, world-class infrastructure and strong international connectivity. Entrepreneurs, international businesses, investors and families continue to operate, invest and grow across the region.

Our purpose remains rooted in our founding values. Since we were founded by Victor (later Lord) Mishcon in 1937 we have always been driven by an entrepreneurial, tenacious and socially conscious spirit: one that has always embraced change in order to stay relevant and shape the future.

From Hong Kong and our offices in London, Oxford, Cambridge, Singapore, and the UAE we help clients navigate change, anticipate what's next and unlock growth - for their businesses and their families - with the same vision, dedication and passion with which we set out. We continue to settle disputes, protect assets and grow businesses, fiercely guarding our clients’ interests and valuing the privilege of sitting alongside them as a trusted adviser.

We don't just give advice - we make things happen. We believe that lawyers must move from the age of instruction to the age of anticipation: to be pro-active, harness the law’s potential and unlock possibilities others do not see, and to champion diversity, innovation and sustainability.
