Des Voeux Chambers is lauded as a ‘leading set in Hong Kong, and its members are regularly involved in big-ticket cases’ in the evolving area of competition law. Catrina Lam SC was elevated to silk in the 2025 round. Among the set’s juniors, Connie Lee is praised as ’a sharp and articulate junior with an excellent grasp of competition law‘. Of recent note, she represented one of the respondents in the case of Competition Commission v W Hing Construction Company Limited and others, the first case case of its kind to consider an enforcement action surrounding market sharing and price fixing in Hong Kong.
