Teresa Yu
Teresa joined Garden Chambers after reading law and serving pupillage with Mr Derek Chan S.C., Mr Charles J. Chan., Mr Stanley Siu, Ms Queenie Ng, and Mr Felix Li. In developing a broad mixed practice, Teresa has a particular focus on commercial disputes and land and trust related matters, as well as family law disputes. Teresa has advised and advocated for clients in a wide variety of civil and criminal matters and has, both as a sole advocate and a led junior, appeared in all levels of Court in her own right. In all cases, she is committed to resolving the disputes amicably wherever possible, and, where necessary, fight for respective clients in their best interests in mind.
Outside court, Teresa also accepts urgent engagement for legal visits and/or advice and saves no effort in contributing her time to the legal industry by accepting appointments from different institutions and organising events for budding and young legal talents and undertaking pro-bono legal services via multiple schemes.
Teresa’s diligent, accurate and eloquent advisory and advocacy are widely recognised in both Chinese and English matters.
