D. Free legal advice scheme on HKU campus run by HKU Faculty of Law

The Faculty of Law of The University of Hong Kong runs a Free Legal Advice Scheme on campus under the umbrella of the Duty Lawyer Service.

The Free Legal Advice Scheme on HKU Campus has given preliminary legal advice to many types of cases including contract and business law disputes, divorce and custody issues, employment law and consumer rights, traffic accidents and workers’ compensation, property ownership and inheritance rights, defamation, intellectual property, criminal and judicial review and so on.

Any person wishing to seek free legal advice from the Scheme must attend two sessions. The first session is an Interview Session to be conducted by our law students who will take down the background of the case and obtain relevant documents. The second session is an Advice Session to be scheduled normally within two or three weeks after the Interview Session. At the Advice Session, preliminary legal advice will be given by qualified lawyers, with the assistance of our law students.
