Jose-Antonio Maurellet SC, born in Hong Kong in 1978, is a Senior Counsel and the current Chairman of the Hong Kong Bar Association, practising from Des Voeux Chambers in Central. He took a BA in Jurisprudence at Oxford in 1999 and the Postgraduate Certificate in Laws at the University of Hong Kong in 2000, the year he was called to the Hong Kong Bar; the Bar's records also show a Bar Scholarship in 2000. He has been in private practice since 2001 and was appointed Senior Counsel in 2016. His Bar record lists membership of the Hong Kong Institute of Arbitrators and accreditation as a CEDR mediator.
On the judicial side, he served as a Deputy Judge of the Court of First Instance between 2018 and 2021. On 30 September 2021 the Judiciary announced the appointment of six Recorders of the Court of First Instance, including Maurellet, for three years from 1 October 2021, on the recommendation of the Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission.
Within the Bar Association he served as Vice-Chairman before becoming Chairman. At the annual general meeting on 22 January 2026 he was re-elected Chairman for a one-year term, with the two Vice-Chairmen also returned. The Bar Council list updated on 16 May 2026 records him as Chairman. The Association's press release that day said working groups had been set up on the Tai Po fire and on artificial intelligence to study the relevant regulatory questions, and noted that Bar Council members had travelled abroad repeatedly during the previous year to strengthen ties with overseas and mainland lawyers.
