Studying in Hong Kong

In an increasingly global economy we take pride in maintaining an international outlook. We have worked with the top five global firms and have built strong links with law schools and professional bodies throughout the world.

We work with many of the top 100 UK law firms, with over 30 of them choosing to send their trainees exclusively to us.

We believe that our students thrive in a realistic, professional and contemporary learning environment. We focus exclusively on practice-based training, with qualified and experienced solicitors, barristers and judges as our tutors.

These tutors bring invaluable real-life experience into the classroom, helping our students stand out in the job market. It is this excellence in teaching that we are excited to bring to Hong Kong.
