On July 22, the law lecture "Practical Points for the Mutual Recognition and Enforcement of Civil and Commercial Judgments in Hong Kong and Hong Kong" was held by Dehe Hanthong Law Office and achieved great success. The Shanghai Women Lawyers Working Committee and the Family and Family Wealth Management Business Committee jointly invited the Hong Kong law firm of Yu Jianfeng, Sun Bo, Yau Chi-keung, Mak to share her rich experience and insights in handling China-Hong Kong-Australia cross-border affairs. Mr. Jiang Chun, founding partner of Dehe Hantong, attended the lecture and delivered a welcoming speech.
In his speech, lawyer Jiang Chun said that Dehe Hantong Law Firm has been committed to promoting the innovation and development of legal services. I hope that through this talk, we can discuss and learn the practical points of mutual recognition and enforcement of civil and commercial judgments in the two places, so as to enhance the professional skills of lawyers and better serve clients. At the same time, Dehe Hantong set up an office in Hengqin this year, aiming to further expand the foreign business field and deepen the coordinated development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao cooperation.
