Our Managing Partner, Mark Chan, was recently featured in Asian Legal Business's June 2026 forum piece, "The Real Craft." The discussion brings together legal leaders from across the region to explore how generative technology is shaping the future of legal services.

As artificial intelligence continues to automate routine processes and streamline data analysis, H.M. Chan & Co in association with Shihui Partners remains firmly committed to the belief that the core value of excellent legal practice is deeply human.

In the forum, Mark highlights how the firm is actively doubling down on the elements of lawyering that no algorithm can replicate:

• Commercial Judgment: Developing sharp, nuanced strategic advice that aligns strictly with business goals, rather than just delivering sterile legal analysis.
• Mentorship: Fostering the skills, ethics, and professional growth of our next-generation lawyers through hands-on guidance.
• Genuine Trust: Building long-term client relationships anchored in face-to-face collaboration and a deep understanding of human dynamics.

"The true value of legal practice remains deeply human. Technology is an exceptional tool, but it cannot substitute for genuine trust and tailored commercial insight." — Mark Chan, Managing Partner
