If your firm is interested in making an entry to Directory of Hong Kong Law Firms and/or offering preliminary free legal consultation to the public, please apply on-line (law firm account log-in required).
Terms and Conditions
The Directory of Hong Kong Law Firms ("Directory") is produced by The Law Society of Hong Kong ("the Society") to facilitate the finding of the right solicitors by the members of general public. We collect information such as firm name, address, contact person, telephone number, fax number, email address, website, area(s) of practice and publish such information in the Directory.
The Directory of Law Firms provides information of law firms in four geographic locations, namely, Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, New Territories and Mainland China. Each section provides the details of firms and her contact person to whom the public would be directed to make their inquiries. A firm with more than one branch may have more than one listing.
A separate list of law firms who have volunteered to provide not exceeding 45 minutes initial free legal consultation to the public in one or more of the 24 areas of practice will be published on https://lawdirectory.hklawsoc.org.hk/en/Free-Legal-Consultation maintained by the Society. Similarly, a firm with more than one branch may have more than one listing.
Special Notes on 45-min Free Legal Consultation ("FLC")
Upon indication of your firm’s consent to provide FLC, your firm is required to:
Provide 45 minutes of initial legal consultation by a qualified lawyer without charge;
Provide FLC without imposing any other conditions, such as future payment instructions;
Maintain records of the number of requests for FLC received and the number of FLC provided by the firm and tender such records to the Law Society upon request;
Maintain proper records of any FLC provided, in accordance with the requirements applicable to services provided to other clients of the firm; and
Consent to the inclusion of the firm's details and its participation in the FLC in the Pro Bono Services webpage of the Law Society website.

The fees per branch listing in the Directory and 45-min Free Legal Consultation (https://lawdirectory.hklawsoc.org.hk/en/Free-Legal-Consultation) are HK$300 and HK$100 respectively. However, if your firm has submitted an entry to the Directory, the fee for listing the Free Legal Consultation for the same branch will be waived.
