Details

“The book is a must for any young lawyer starting practice as a solicitor or barrister in Hong Kong. It provides a guide for the litigation process from interview of the client to appeal. Ethics are well and sensibly covered and there

is even a chapter on court etiquette... a useful addition to any Hong Kong lawyer’s library.” – review of the first edition in The New Gazette

Advocacy and the Litigation Process in Hong Kong provides an introduction to the basic rules, conventions and techniques that every advocate must know and apply when practising in the courts of Hong Kong. It takes the reader through the complex litigation process from first interview with the client, through the preparation of the case for trial, interlocutory applications, the trial

itself and finally appeals. It also highlights the skills required to be successful and emphasises the ethical duties of advocates.

The third edition incorporates many new developments in the rules and techniques of practice and introduces many new cases and practice directions relevant to practice.

This book, which is essential reading for all law students, is also likely to be of interest to practising advocates and all involved in the trial process.
