The China Law Group is proud to host its first talk of 2020/2021. Please join us in a discussion with Professor Sida Liu relating to the corporate legal market in China.
 
Globalization has rapidly changed the landscape of legal practice in China, especially its corporate legal sector. Since its entry into the WTO in 2001, China has become a prime location for the global expansion of legal services. More than a hundred international law firms have established offices in major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. During this time, a number of Chinese law firms have also grown into elite corporate firms, becoming important players in foreign investments, public listings, and others cross-border transactions.
 
This talk will provide an introduction to the elite Chinese corporate law firms, their international linkages, and the domestic context of China’s corporate legal sector. 
 
The talk will be held on October 30th, 2020, 3:30-4:30 PM EDT. See Headnotes for Zoom details.
