China Practice

With the rapid increase in Chinese-USA business transactions, and the commensurate rising tide of business litigation, American businesses are realizing that Chinese businesses are no longer "above the law," nor should they be.

Our firm provides legal services to United States businesses and consumers with claims against Chinese companies. Furthermore we can represent Chinese companies with claims against U.S.-based companies. We have affiliate counsel in China in Beijing and Shanghai.

In addition to the above, a large part of the firm's international practice is dedicated to representing smaller U.S. companies with operations or activities in China, as well as Chinese enterprises seeking to do business in the U.S.

Services that we provide include the following:

• Counseling U.S. and other foreign businesses on the practical aspects of doing business in China, including insights into local legal and business custom, governmental relations and approvals, due diligence on prospective business partners, cultural insights, and other services that will facilitate a foreign entity entering into a business relationship with Chinese partners and/or making a significant investment in China.
• Assisting clients with the planning, acquisition and building of China-based manufacturing and other industrial facilities.
• Counseling U.S. businesses entering into joint ventures, partnerships or contractual relationships with Chinese entities.
• Advising Chinese enterprises doing business in the U.S., including counseling on appropriate entity structure, capital formation, vendor and customer relationships, joint ventures with U.S. partners, U.S. taxes and tax treaties, and all other legal representation essential to the start up of a successful U.S. business venture.

Furthmore, we pride ourselves on providing creative advice in the resolution of disputes while representing the interests of our clients at trial or at arbitration hearings.  Our capabilities include advising on Chinese and international litigation and arbitration matters.
