OUR VISION
David Cameron Law Office was founded in 2021 by David Cameron. David moved to Hong Kong in 2008 after completing a JD at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, an MBA at Wharton, and an MA at the Lauder Institute. He began his career in private practice at leading international law firms, including Linklaters and Allen & Overy, before later being recruited as a partner at Dorsey & Whitney.
After more than a decade in large international firms, David broke away from traditional big law to build something different. The firm was designed by removing what clients and the market increasingly view as unhelpful, most notably the billable hour, while retaining and refining what works: experienced lawyers, partner-led advice, and a strong focus on execution and commercial judgment.
The result is an independent firm that has senior, internationally qualified lawyers who value providing solutions and fostering long-term client relationships. All partners are qualified in Hong Kong and at least one additional international jurisdiction, allowing the firm to bring international quality to the Hong Kong market.
We occupy a distinct position in the Hong Kong legal landscape. Between global firms on one end and purely local firms on the other, there is limited choice for clients seeking high-quality, international advice delivered in a flexible and commercially aligned way. When the right client finds us, the relationship is truly a win-win.
​
For clients, this model delivers clarity on scope and fees, direct access to experienced partners, and legal advice that is practical, responsive and commercially grounded. We work closely with founders, investors, funds and family offices who value outcomes over process and long-term relationships over short-term transactions.
The firm’s approach and growth have been recognised through industry awards and rankings, including being named a law firm to watch and receiving recognition for innovation, client service and independent firm excellence. These acknowledgements reflect the strength of the model and, more importantly, the trust placed in us by our clients.
