Our trade compliance and trade remedies team boasts a deep bench of more than 10 partners and nearly 30 lawyers, making us one of the largest practices in this area. Our lawyers are well versed in trade laws of different countries and equipped with extensive practical experience. Several partners worked for government agencies, including the Ministry of Commerce, before joining Zhong Lun and have over 20 years of comparable work experience. Most of our lawyers also have an outstanding international legal education background.

Our team has advised scores of Chinese and overseas businesses, industrial associations, and government agencies on anti-dumping, anti-subsidy, safeguard measure investigations, WTO dispute settlement, trade compliance, import and export control, economic sanctions, supply chain security, and national security review, among other things, and helped our clients identify and mitigate risks, respond to cross-border government investigations, get removed from blacklists, expand international presence, and develop compliance management systems. We count among our clients many leading market players in related sectors. We have handled numerous trade remedy cases initiated by major countries and regions worldwide, including the US, EU, Japan, Australia, ASEAN countries, and South American countries, against Chinese enterprises, as well as trade remedy investigations conducted by China against foreign businesses. These work highlights confirm a notable level of expertise, as we have attained a large number of outcomes favorable to our clients, such as a zero or low tariff rate determination for anti-dumping/countervailing duties, and no measures imposed. We have also kept an excellent record in responding to US trade sanctions, dealing with China's or other countries' import and export control measures, filing for national security review, and developing compliance managing systems for our clients. For many years in a row, our performance has been highly recognized and ranked in the first tier by many professional rating agencies, including Chambers and The Legal 500.
