China

Eversheds' China business group 

Our China business group is based in both Shanghai and London. That means we can provide with the advice you need, wherever you need it, to help you deal with this complex market.

Our group consists of Chinese-speaking Western lawyers with significant experience of working in the PRC, and English-speaking Chinese lawyers with backgrounds in Western law firms.

We represent Western companies investing in or trading with the PRC across a wide array of sectors, including manufacturing, chemicals, oil and gas, media, education, financial services and retail franchising. We also act for Chinese companies doing business overseas.

You can enjoy a full spectrum of legal advice in areas that include:

• mergers and acquisitions
• anti-trust
• corporate finance
• environmental regulation
• renewables and Kyoto Protocol clean development mechanism projects
• establishment of foreign-invested entities and offshore and onshore structuring
• infrastructural BOT projects
• intellectual property rights and technology transfer
• international trade
• project finance
• restructuring and liquidations
• venture capital
• customs, tariffs and anti-dumping
• employment.

In addition to the legal aspects of a transaction, the background and experience of our team gives you a deep understanding of Chinese business practices and customs, which can differ markedly from those in the West.
