Career

Fiona qualified in Hong Kong in 1992. Prior to joining Hugill & Ip, she led litigation teams in sizeable legal firms serving diverse clients – including HNWI, statutory bodies and public listed companies – and headed the probate and conveyancing department as a partner of a renowned local law firm.

She is experienced in a wide range of civil litigation including contractual and shareholders’ disputes, contentious probate and family disputes. She is also a Civil Celebrant of Marriages.

Apart from contentious matters, Fiona frequently acts for individual and professional clients in non-contentious probate matters such as estate administration for both Hong Kong and international clients and as professionally appointed estate administrator. She also advises on estate planning and mentally incapacitated persons enquiry proceedings.

Fiona has received the pro-bono award from The Hong Kong Law Society for her service to the community every year since 2018. She was recognised by Doyle’s Guide in 2022 as Estates, Probate & Succession Litigation Lawyer.

She has contributed to The Hong Kong Encyclopaedia of Forms and Precedents (Family) published by LexisNexis.
