Wei is a private wealth and global estate planning lawyer based in Stephenson Harwood's Hong Kong office. She has extensive experience in complex family trust, tax advisory and compliance and succession planning involving multiple jurisdictions.

Wei has advised high net worth families on a variety of private wealth matters including the design and implementation of family trusts and foundation structures, family governance, pre-immigration planning, philanthropic structuring, family office structure establishment, corporate restructuring, wills and estate and family business succession. Wei has also advised trustees and institutions on operational issues for asset protection structures and fiduciary risks.
