Divorce Lawyer Needed Urgently

My husband and I were married for 9 years with a 4 years old daughter. Our family was relocated to Singapore due to my husband's career 8 months ago, our marriage had turned very sour since. Wanted to end this marriage and return back to Hong Kong. I'd got back from Hong Kong 1 month ago and had spoken to a lawyer at Oldham, Li & Nie.Charged me $4000HKG for 1 HR consultation. To file for divorce, expected to be contested as my husband will also want the custody of my daughter , also our property in HK. Lawyer quoted $30,000HKG to start with and as much as $120,000.00 depending on the complication of the case. Can someone recommend me a good, reasonable price lawyer as a second option. I can't afford it! please help.

Scotthk2 – you are so right - the quality of the legal profession in Hong Kong is rubbish but then the legal system is so corrupt it is no surprise........

II had an experience I wish no one will have.


I have some advice I'd rather not have in print. It is very important. Some lawyers are actively supportive of making the process as awful (and expensive - i.e. lucrative for them) as possible. They will deny this to high heaven, but it is the case with some. You don't want to use these lawyers - there is only really one firm with this reputation - and you don't want your ex- to use them either.


After experiencing a horrible costly and lengthily divorce in Hong Kong, I started to explore the divorce system in Hong Kong and I found out that there is no information that s available to the layperson when facing or even considering divorce.


Knowledge is power, information make it clearer in a circumstances that even the terminology is new and a law-glossary is needed.


My 'expensive' experience is valuable and it is rare that someone is willing to share, especially the mistakes. (Which become mistakes only after you finish the process and then you realize that you had other way to do it – even throughout litigation). I can share with you what the law can do and can not do for you - information that you can not / will not get in another way.


A divorce coach can guide you thru the process saving you a lot of money, time and pain. Get the information first - I truly believe that getting all the information available before taking the next step and understanding the options you have – can make the difference.


DIVORCE COACHING: Before you start getting into the horrors of it all, and in order to try to steer clear of it as much as possible (in a nasty divorce, the lawyers end up with your money). If you are getting divorced it is because you have issue you cannot resolve. The Court is the last place for these issues to be resolved. It can cost millions, as well as years of your life.


Let me know if you are interested. It is MUCH cheaper then lawyers – as a start, and then when you have ALL the information you are able to see the choices.




Send me your contacts / Email and I will contact you.

Sorry everyone I just read the rules of this forum. It says no negative comments and for very reasonable reasons. All I am going to say here due to my own personal experience; beware of divorce coaches and people who claim to be so. Anybody who charges you to give you legal advice and is not a lawyer is a scam. There are many good lawyers out there. Then there's Legal Aid and the Hong Kong Family Welfare Society that offer advice for free.

lllsss 's post sounded like a bit of an advertisment. May not have been but.....
