Born Law Hang-tong on September 22 (August 27 Lunar), 1946 in Shunde, Guangdong as the eldest son of actor Law Kar-kuen (羅家權) and his wife Lee Ngan-guen (李銀娟). His younger brothers are Law Yiu-tong (羅耀堂), Law Yau-tong (羅友堂), and Law Shiu-tong (羅紹堂). His younger sister is Law Sok-ching (羅素貞). In 1949, his family moved to Hong Kong.

He was originally a Cantonese opera singer in the 1970s. And a practitioner of the Ng Ying Kungfu (Chinese: 五形功夫) Five Animal Kung Fu arts. In 1990 he turned to acting in movies. He became popular after being cast in From Beijing with Love, which also starred Stephen Chow, as Da Vinci, an inventor whose list of (useless) gadgets include a solar-powered torch.

In 1990s, Law played Wong Yat-fei in his first movie debut in 1993 film Crime Story along with Jackie Chan. In 1994 he was cast in Jeff Lau's film duology A Chinese Odyssey, in which he played the verbose Longevity Monk (Xuanzang), singing a Cantonese cover of "Only You (And You Alone)" midway during the film.

Law has rarely acted in television, especially on TVB, the television station of his wife, Liza Wang. He is most known for cooperating with ATV, which is TVB's rival.

In September 2022, Law apologized after mainland Chinese netizens criticized Law after he made a post, which he later deleted, stating "Hong Kong was a blessed land during her reign", in reference to Queen Elizabeth II.^[1]

In the 2018 HK Arts Festival, Law was cast as Xiang Yu along with Yau Sing Po in the classic opera Farewell My Concubine.^[2]
