About the Practice

Bridging Two Legal Systems

Founded in Beijing with deep roots in American legal practice, our firm occupies a unique position at the intersection of two of the world's most important legal systems.

Our founding partner trained at top U.S. law schools and practiced at leading American firms before establishing this practice to serve the growing need for sophisticated IP enforcement in China.

We understand both the letter of Chinese law and the practical realities of enforcement. More importantly, we understand what American companies need: clear communication, predictable timelines, and results that translate into business value.

“Excellence is not a single act, but a habit built over decades of practice.”

— Founding Partner
