This is one in a series of books seeking to introduce the reader to the frequently encountered legal rules in Hong Kong. This publication, in particular, focuses on the rules regulating property and conveyancing which apply in the territory. The book is intended for use by the non-lawyer. The organizational structure reflects this goal: the text is kept short. For readers desiring additional information, an extensive endnote section provides much more comprehensive and detailed explanations. The endnote sections also includes Chinese translations of the legal terms used in this publication. The Table of Contents is detailed and serves as a convenient outline. An Index contributes to making this book easy to use.
As a survey, this text is appropriate for an audience which would include, for example: students required to study legal subjects; foreign-based non-law professionals needing an overview of the relevant subject; local professionals whose work involves a legal element; and, the general public.
