Hong Kong Divorce

The breakup of a marriage is a painful, upsetting and life-changing process - one that doesn't need to be made any more traumatic, complicated or frustrating by an opaque and unaccessible divorce process. This website has been created to explain the law behind divorce and its process in Hong Kong so that people going through a divorce can understand it easily and avoid being overwhelmed by the law and instead focus on how they can best move forward with their lives. Hong Kong Divorce.com is a free resource website covering every aspect of divorce, family law and matrimonial proceedings in Hong Kong. Created by a group of individuals, all of whom are actively involved in the divorce and family legal sphere in Hong Kong, the objective of this website is to clarify how the divorce process works, provide a concise and clear overview of the law, answer the common queries of people going through this difficult period, and generally provide support through information to those in need. We aim to set out in simple terms what a husband or wife can expect to encounter in the run-up to a divorce, and during the long and sometimes complicated process that may follow. We will introduce you to, and explain the roles of, those professional individuals who may become involved in the divorce process, from solicitors and barristers, to mediators and marriage counsellors, so that your collaboration with these people will be on equal, informed terms. We will give a guide as to how family practitioners operate, including how they may charge, what you can do to keep your legal costs down, whether you actually need a lawyer, and how to pick one if so.
