For UK–China Cross-Border Businesses

Legal counsel for companies operating across the UK, Greater China, and the wider Asia-Pacific region.

Companies operating between the UK and Greater China face a distinctive set of legal questions — from how a transaction is structured, to how a dispute will be enforced across jurisdictions, to how a UK subsidiary is staffed and complies with local regulation. Our bilingual team advises UK-based businesses with Chinese operations, Chinese companies setting up or trading into the UK, and the Chinese and international investors behind them.
