We provide English legal advice to clients across East Asia including from China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, South Korea and Malaysia. This includes immigration, intellectual property, dispute resolution, real estate, corporate and commercial matters and a range of complementary services. We also specialise in International Construction projects and disputes and have particular expertise in the FIDIC forms of contract. 

Our dedicated East Asia team has an in-depth knowledge of clients from the region and their requirements in the UK, offering client-focused commercial advice. Our clients are businesses and individuals, but they are unified by their common desire to make the UK their second home and invest and grow their business interests here.

We regularly partner and host events with organisations that have a focus in the region. We work closely with businesses such as London & Partners which help overseas companies to set up and scale-up across London. These networks have expert teams to support and grow businesses in the two-way flow of commerce between many countries in East Asia including China and Japan and the UK.

Our one-stop legal service is designed with the Chinese market in mind, combining our extensive experience with a dedicated, client-focused team. We are straightforward to work with and committed to fully understanding your business and objectives.

As a firm with a strong history of working with businesses globally and one of the few UK law firms dedicated to delivering comprehensive legal services for Chinese enterprises and private clients in the international market. We take pride in offering a distinctive and personalised approach.
