Legal Services in the Context of Globalization
       Modern China offers many amazing opportunities. However it also presents many challenges—some new and unknown, some long-lived. How to enter the vast and complex Chinese market, which is deeply influenced by historical and cultural factors, is a strategic issue that every transnational corporation must in the long term confront. For rapidly growing Chinese enterprises, the obvious next step is to go after opportunities overseas, further gaining global recognition and respect. No matter what kind of enterprises they are, they need, in different degrees, the support of Chinese law firms with a wide vision, rich experience, international resources and a profound understanding of culture and real practices both in China and abroad.
