Bio

Henry Chung (JD, Georgetown University Law Center, 2002) is a lawyer who is qualified to practice law in Canada, Hong Kong and the United States.

In 2002, Chung received his Juris Doctor degree from Georgetown University Law Center where he served as a Notes & Articles Editor for the prestigious Georgetown Journal of Legal Ethics.

After graduation from law school, Chung worked as a trade secrets attorney in Maryland and Washington DC for a few years before moving to Hong Kong, where he was a partner of a civil litigation firm for many years.

In Canada, Chung practices civil litigation, handles small claims and residential tenancy board disputes, as well as Empty Homes Tax disputes. Chung also assists clients in wills drafting and reviewing commercial contracts such as franchise agreements, leases, service agreements, etc.

When not teaching or practicing law, Chung is a world-renowned blues harmonica player who shared the stage with Pinetop Perkins, Jake Shimabukuro, Larkin Poe, Tab Benoit, Bob Margolin, Joe Louis Walker, etc.

He's also an award-winning music producer who has produced multiple Grammy winners Andrae Crouch, Daniel Ho, Grammy nominee Howard McCrary, jazz greats Ulf Wakenius, Hendrik Meurkens, Eugene Pao, Reggie McBride, and Watoto Children's Choir to his credit.

I teach BADM 107: Canadian Business Law I, LAW 310: Legal Drafting, IBUS 340: International Trade and Law, and LAW 240: Estates and Procedure.
