Why is the lawyer's fee for Hong Kong companies expensive? How much is it to find a lawyer?

Hello, because the legal systems of Hong Kong and the Mainland are different, Hong Kong follows the example of Britain and implements the common law system, while the Mainland implements the civil law system, which leads to the differences in notarization between the two sides.

Notarization in the Mainland is carried out by the notary office, and the fees are also set by the government. In Hong Kong, notarization is done by Hong Kong lawyers. At that time, not all lawyers were able to engage in notarization business, and only Hong Kong lawyers who had obtained relevant licenses through examinations could handle notarization.

The notary fees of lawyers in Hong Kong are not set by the government, but determined by lawyers according to market conditions.

The notarization fees of Hong Kong lawyers mainly include: notarization fees, forwarding fees, administrative surcharges, miscellaneous fees paid on behalf of others, and international courier fees. The total expenses shall be listed in the expense schedule, plus:

1, attachment? Transfer fees of China Legal Service (HK) Co., Ltd. is about one-third of the notary fee, and the administrative surcharge entrusted by China to Notaries Association Co., Ltd. is HK$ 50 yuan.

2. The above fees only include one original and one copy;

3. All fees are subject to the latest announcements of China Ministry of Justice, China Legal Service (Hongkong) Co., Ltd. and China Association of Commissioned Notaries, and vary according to the types and documents of notarization.
