Presenter's Biography:

Mr Samuel Li is the Sole Proprietor of Samuel Li & Co., Solicitors & Notaries. He qualified as a solicitor in Hong Kong in 1983. He passed the Notarial Examination in 1995 and was admitted as a Hong Kong Notary Public.

Samuel now focuses on notarial practices. In the preceding 20+ years as a Hong Kong Notary Public, he has an excellent track record in providing notarial services to clients including overseas government, and world's leading brand companies. More than 70 countries and regions on world's 5 continents have accepted Samuel's notarised documents.

Samuel has given 40 seminars to professionals to demonstrate notarial practice, with total audience exceeding 3,485.

Samuel is the author of the soon released notarial book named "Notarial Services in Hong Kong: General Principles, Values and Practice".

Samuel has received 14 Pro Bono Legal Services Awards & Professional Volunteer Service Awards respectively from the Home Affairs Bureau of the HKSAR, The Law Society of Hong Kong and Hong Kong Council of Volunteering in recognition of his promoting legal knowledge and professional volunteering services to the public. In 2014, Samuel was nominated by the Hong Kong Law Society to participate in the Second Leadership Bauhinia Volunteer Award Selection organized by the Agency for Volunteer Service.
 
Objective:

The objective of this course is to minimise the risk to engage in litigation due to non compliance of execution formalities of company documents.

Case law highlights the risks of protracted litigation if documents are not properly executed.

Mummery L.J. in the case of Williams v Redcard Ltd. [2011] 4 All ER 444 rightly pointed out:
"Expensive and long drawn-out litigation about the execution of a document by a company can be avoided by taking more care over compliance with the formalities at the time of execution…"

Legal practitioners should therefore know the law relating to the execution of company documents and deeds in detail when they deal with the execution of company documents of clients, in commercial transactions or conveyancing cases, so as to minimise such risk.

In this seminar, the speaker provides an insight into the legal and practical aspects of execution, and illustrates with many well selected court cases in which execution of company documents are challenged that the documents are invalid or as a result thereof, the titles of properties are defective.

This course also includes the proof of due execution of company documents for use in Hong Kong and overseas so that transactional documents or otherwise will be accepted and there will be more certainty of transactions in order to avoid litigation in future.

The speaker will share real life examples from his experience.
