De Wolf & Partners Shanghai Office : an Easy Life Service lawyer’s partner who actually understands your business in China

De Wolf & Partners’ permanent office in Shanghai combines the local law firms’ competence and experience of the rapidly evolving Chinese legal environment with a thorough understanding of the western business practices and hands-on experience of the difficulties met by most European managers and entrepreneurs when doing business in or with China.

Their team, consisting of European and Chinese trained and experienced business lawyers, is led by Mr. Philippe SNEL, who has been actively involved in China business since 2002 and has acquired extensive experience in advising western companies and entrepreneurs about the legal aspects of doing business in China.

Overtime De Wolf & Partners has nurtured long-lasting relationships
with Chinese law firms mainly in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou
and Hong Kong. Building on these relationships they have
successfully developed a quite unique service solution which can
meet most of their client’s needs for legal assistance in China.

In recent months, China has introduced a series of new laws and
regulations which add to an already complex legal arsenal (corporate
tax law effective 1/1/08, new labor law effective 01/01/08, new
franchise law, new product safety regulations, etc…). Some of these
regulations may have implications on foreign companies even if
they are only trading with China.

Do not hesitate to call on us for all your needs in terms of commercial contracts, trade financing contracts, taxation and duties as well as for dispute settlement or eventually litigation.

Because at De Wolf & Partners, they understand business in China, they are able to provide you with pragmatic but effective legal solutions to secure your interests in or with China.
