Our tax lawyers are renowned for their solid expertise, especially in dealing with complex cross-border tax issues, including providing services concerning tax advice, tax planning, and resolution of various tax-related disputes for cross-border investment and transactions. They all graduated from prestigious law schools in China or overseas and have in-depth knowledge of Chinese and international tax laws and years of experience working at international law firms and consulting firms.

Boasting a large and experienced private client practice team in the Greater China region, we are also specialized in offering comprehensive wealth planning advice for ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families. On the litigation front, our lawyers are experts in handling a wide range of difficult and complicated asset-related lawsuits derived from matrimonial or inheritance disputes or issues of a similar nature, especially disputes over, among other things, split of shares in listed companies, cross-border share transactions, inheritance of family enterprises, and multi-jurisdictional divorces. As regards non-contentious matters, our services cover estate distribution planning for the entirety of life, domestic and overseas family trust and insurance planning, wealth protection and wealth succession planning, as well as philanthropic planning.

We also advise an array of family offices of ultra-high-net-worth individuals on tax and legal matters and have provided all-encompassing tax and wealth planning services for numerous prominent families.
