Family Matters

2022-11-28
When a family dispute occurs and legal recourse is sought, the problems involved are usually more complicated than that of other cases. In the 1970’s, i.e. the early days of the Legal Aid Department (LAD) after its establishment, LAD started to handle cases related to family law litigation. These cases usually involve arguments over issues like divorce, alimony and child custody, and the situations are always complex. A woman from Africa who takes root in Hong Kong and a father who had gone astray seek legal aid on divorce and child custody respectively. It is really a great challenge for the lawyer team of LAD who specialises in domestic affairs to adopt a compassionate and rational approach when providing legal support to the aided persons.
