Training, Knowledge, Culture

Charltons is committed to building strong and collaborative working partnerships and relationships where we share knowledge on Hong Kong law and exchange information on the latest Hong Kong legal and regulatory changes, where we are accessible, helpful and approachable.

We publish frequent newsletters on aspects of Hong Kong and PRC corporate and securities law. Our lawyers are encouraged to submit articles for publication in legal and professional publications. We prepare briefings for clients to keep them up to date on Hong Kong legal and regulatory changes that might affect their businesses. We also provide Hong Kong law training for directors and other key company personnel on their duties and obligations.

Our continued success depends on our nurturing the talent of our people. We encourage our lawyers to be life-long learners and pursue continued education. We regularly organise in-house Hong Kong law training and CPD courses with partner firms and with professionals from other disciplines and facilitate study leave when possible.

We have a learning environment. As a boutique practice, our associates at all levels have the opportunity to play an active role in our team. They work closely with partners and senior lawyers on assigned matters and regularly attend client meetings. They are exposed to a wide range of matters and transactions including listings, mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, due diligence, PRC corporate and securities law, funds law, private equity and other commercial law matters. Associates at all levels also work on the research and preparation of our regular published newsletters and other know-how publications. As well as having our associates work as part of a dedicated know-how team led by a senior Hong Kong corporate finance solicitor, we further involve them in the different industry consultation processes in which we often participate and from time to time coordinate.
