Longan Law Firm

Overview:

The Longan Law Firm is one of the first partnership law firms approved by Chinese government and was established in Beijing. Longan possesses legal qualifications required by Chinese government to be engaged in lawyer services.Long An Law Firm is a full service Chinese law firm with offices in all major metropolitan areas across China. Founded in 1992 when China was just embarking on the process of privatization and reform of its economy, our first office in Beijing was one of the first few private law partnerships licensed by the P. R. C. authority.
Twenty years later, as China becomes the second largest economy in the world, Long An has grown into a national firm with expanding international service capacities.
Our international practice started with filing trademarks for foreign companies in China in the early 1990s. In the wake of China’s integration with the world trade system following accession to the WTO in 2001, we have advised many industrial, financial and technology companies in setting up sourcing, manufacturing and other operations in China. Today, we also represent many multinational consumer-oriented companies in meeting the consumption demands of the growing Chinese middle class.
Helping multinational companies navigate the challenges of a rapidly developing China, Long An lawyers take pride in providing legal advice and solutions with cultural sensitivity. We emphasize communication in plain language and make extra efforts to ensure our foreign clients appreciate the underlying business and social logic of relevant Chinese laws and regulations.
While many of our lawyers have overseas education or training, Long An professionals are deeply rooted in our communities in China. We count many of those national and local leaders in government, business or academics as friends.
At Long An you will meet lawyers who are equally confident in deal-making or adversary proceedings. Our know-how is not just measured in legal reasoning, rather Long An’s prowess is reflected in our in depth understanding of many industries and sectors, our connections with decision-makers and business leaders, and our insight into Chinese society at large. Clients often find this valuable to their mid and long term planning.
Located in Beijing, Shenyang, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Tianjing and Qingdao, nearly 300 Long An lawyers stand ready to maximize the values of your business and protect your interests in China and beyond.
