Why OCTIS

Hong Kong solicitors, matched to your matter

The advice comes from licensed Hong Kong solicitors on our panel, who are partner firms and not OCTIS staff. We match the matter to the right one and run the intake, so you start from the facts and not from a search for a firm.

Contracts read before you sign

A panel lawyer drafts, reviews and redlines your contracts, and every version is tracked in order. A dispute turns on the document actually signed, so you always know which paper is the final one.

Every matter on file

Each consult, document and outcome is logged in one workspace, so the next matter does not start with explaining your business from scratch.

Hands stacked together over papers

A bigger matter has a place to go

When a matter is bigger than a routine question, such as a shareholder agreement, a restructuring or a sale, it moves to the service that covers it, inside the same OCTIS account.

Signed copies file themselves

Sign with a legally binding e-signature and the signed copy is filed for you, tagged to who it is about, so you can find it later.

A service for every kind of owner

Founders and co-owners

Two or three owners and nothing written down yet. A shareholders' agreement and a clear ownership structure settle who owns what while everyone still agrees.

Owners hiring and managing staff

Employment contracts and staff handbooks that comply with the law, and guidance when a conversation with an employee turns difficult.

Owners chasing a payment or signing a deal

BUSINESS LAW IN HONG KONG

What the law asks of a Hong Kong business, and what we do about it

1Licences are separate, and each one counts

Business Registration and any licence your activity needs, such as a restaurant, money lender or travel agent licence, are each required separately, and Business Registration has to be renewed. Miss one and you are still non-compliant. We work out which apply and track them.

2The signed document is the one that counts

In a dispute, what counts is the document actually executed, not earlier drafts. That is why every version of a contract is tracked in order.

3Privacy law looks at what you do with data

Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486) is about what a business actually does with personal data, not the wording of its policy. We write the privacy policy and terms to match what your site or app really collects.

4A contractor label does not remove employer duties

If someone is really an employee, calling them a contractor does not remove the employer's duties under the Employment Ordinance (Cap. 57), MPF and employees' compensation insurance. Employment contracts are written with that in mind.

5Changing owners does not carry contracts across

Contracts do not move across by themselves on a change of ownership, and a change in shareholders has to be recorded properly. Due diligence checks the target's own filed record before you sign.

FAQ

Is OCTIS a law firm, and who gives the legal advice?

No. OCTIS is not a law firm. The advice, the reviews and the drafting come from licensed Hong Kong solicitors on our panel, who are partner firms and not OCTIS staff. OCTIS runs the intake, the matching and the record-keeping around them.

Which service do I choose if I am not sure?

You do not have to. WhatsApp us the matter in a few lines, a contract, a dispute, a hire or a licence. We tell you which service fits and whether the Business Lawyer Plan or a single matter suits you better.

Is there a plan, so I do not pay for every question separately?

Yes. The Business Lawyer Plan covers consultations of up to 30 minutes in writing on routine matters, contract reviews of up to 10 pages each and an annual legal check, for one flat fee. Deeper or specialised matters are quoted separately.

What does the Business Lawyer Plan leave out?

Heavily negotiated or specialised matters are their own services: investment and financing documents, mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, franchising and licensing, equity structuring, restructuring, IP enforcement, tax, labour relations, litigation and shareholder agreements.

Does AI give me the legal advice?

No. AI helps sort requests and draft first versions to save time, but a qualified Hong Kong solicitor reviews and advises on every matter.

Can anyone promise me the outcome?

No. A lawyer tells you where you stand and what the options are. Nobody can promise how a dispute, a claim or a negotiation ends, and OCTIS does not.

Where are my documents and signed copies kept?

In your OCTIS workspace. Each consult, document and outcome is logged against the matter, and a signed copy is filed for you, tagged to who it is about, so you can find it later.
