The Dictionary has been compiled in accordance with a rigorous process of writing and review involving legal practitioners, academics, judges and other senior members of the profession. A number of Consultant Editors were responsible for reviewing the text and ensuring its consistent high quality, subsequently endorsed by an illustrious editorial board including senior members of the legal profession and academia.

This work will provide the starting point for any research enquiry on Hong Kong law. No person dealing with legal or business issues can afford to be without it.
