| Abstract | Disgruntled Canadian lawyers are fighting a new law they charge is creating double standards. Effective January 1, all foreign lawyers must register with the Law Society of Hongkong or face fines of up to $500,000. But joining the professional body means carrying heavy professional indemnity insurance; prohibitively costly for immigration lawyers who come to the territory for a few days a year to consult with clients. |
