China is forecast be the largest economy in the world by the end of this decade despite the challenges of COVID-19 and a global economic slow-down.

It’s a market of huge opportunity for both corporates and individuals.

Our China team includes bilingual lawyers who have worked with China’s leading investment groups, companies and individuals on their UK and international interests.

They know the key legal issues you are likely to face when operating internationally, and through our offices and global network we can help you realise your ambitions wherever they take you.
