On 21 September 2015, our partner Mr. Eric Lui attended a meeting organised by the Lawyer Supervision Department of the Judicial Bureau. The attendees include Deputy Secretary-General of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPCSC) cum Chairman of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Basic Law Committee (BLC) under the NPCSC, Mr Li Fei, leaders of the Authority of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone, the Guangdong Department of Justice and Shenzhen Municipal Justice Bureau. The purpose of the meeting was to provide a platform for all the joint venture law firms in Qianhai to raise their issues or difficulties encountered to the leaders. Mr. Li Fei is well aware of the challenge and will continue to devote his effort to the development of the joint venture law firms in Qianhai.
Stevenson, Wong & Co. and AllBright Law Firm had obtained an approval from Department of Justice, Guangdong on 21 January 2015 to set up a joint venture law firm in Qianhai (ABL&SW). ABL&SW is one of the first batch of joint venture law firms between a law firm of the Hong Kong SAR and a law firm of Mainland China in Qianhai.
