    Survivorship Application in joint tenant property .. through lawyer only???

    I am in Canada, My mother and I jointly owned an apartment in Hong Kong... She passed away on September , last year...
    Is it possible to make an 'remove name' survivorship application through HK lawyer or HK accountant without coming to HK???? I don't have a place to live in Hong Kong,,, also I can't leave my job too long...

    my question is
    1. How much HK money do I have to spend on Lawyer + processing fee on this? so that I know what to expect to pay when google search for a HK lawyer.
    2. Is it a complicated process to deal with land office if i come to Hong Kong to do it myself???

    In canada, just filled in one form and some requirements (death certificate etc) without even through lawyer.
