Practice Profile

Jason joined Albert Luk’s Chambers after completing his pupillage with Mr C.Y. Li S.C., Mr Jon K.H. Wong, Mr Tony Ko and Mr Albert K.C. Yau. Jason accepts instructions in all areas of Chambers’ work.

On the civil side, Jason has knowledge in a wide range of areas including international arbitration, property disputes, land compulsory sales, adverse possession, contentious probate litigation, Part II of Mental Health Ordinance, mortgagee actions, constructive trust, contracts, tort, etc. In recent years he has also often been instructed to provide legal opinions on Hong Kong law for Japanese clients and matters related to Japan.

On the criminal side, Jason has involved in cases including money laundering, conspiracy to defraud, unlawful assembly, ICAC matters, forgery, offences against the person, road traffic offences, and other general criminal matters.

During his law school studies, Jason represented the University of Hong Kong to compete in the Willem C. Vis (East) Moot and the Intercollegiate Negotiation Competition in Tokyo (advocating in Japanese), and built a keen interest in international arbitration.

While engaging in a broad practice in international arbitration and cross-broader litigation (particularly in Hong Kong and Japan), Jason has concurrently been advancing his academic interests in the interaction between international relations and public international law, and Tokugawa village law.

Jason is fluent in English and Chinese and has a business level knowledge of Japanese (passed JLPT N1).
