Parkside Chambers

Parkside Chambers boasts a number of highly experienced barristers with strong criminal and white-collar crime practices. Head of chambers Wayne Walsh SC frequently represents a wide range of clients, including high-net-worth individuals, financial institutions, and government departments, in financial crime prosecutions and regulatory compliance investigations. Amongst the juniors, Osmond Lam is of note for his well-established criminal practice, and he represented the appellant in HKSAR v Lung Siu Chuen, a case concerning a police superintendent charged with two counts of fraud after he was granted a house and mortgage loans valued at $6m. Benson Tsoi is notable for his defence work regarding allegations of organised or white-collar crime, as is demonstrated by his representation of a defendant in HKSAR v Tsai Lu Chin Lin, and their subsequent acquittal of a wide conspiracy to commit money laundering under the pretence of international shipping and trading. Insider dealing and market misconduct inquiries are strengths of Bernard Mak.
