    The Registrar refused the solicitors' application to increase charge-out rates, accepting the Law Society scale as the primary reference subject to market evidence, applied the seven factors globally, and fixed rates at HK$4,200 for Mr. Kemp (senior partner) and HK$2,100 for Mr. Stranger (associate/paralegal period), thereby dismissing the review of the charge-out rates and reserving costs of the review pending decisions on other items.
