Landmark Probate Disputes in Hong Kong

2024-12-05

This book contains an analysis of some of the most important probate dispute cases in Hong Kong. It shows how serious problems and prolonged litigations could arise from the succession process of some of the wealthiest families in Hong Kong, sometimes despite the assistance of able professionals. Whilst it should not be treated as an exhaustive checklist for successful succession planning, the lessons that could be learned from these cases could surely guide the testator in his or her succession planning, and avoid a lot of angsts amongst the family members expecting to inherit significant wealth. 

Ultimately the best way to ensure smooth succession and keep peace and harmony in the family is to nurture the right values amongst the family members. But it is a task easier said than done.

It is hoped that this little book could shed light on how our courts deal with the common issues in probate disputes, and provide guidance on how such disputes could be resolved, and more importantly, avoided.
