Nine lawyers who handle the case, not just the process
A lawyer who only knows how to run a litigation timetable is not, for a cross-border family matter, a complete lawyer. The team is built around mediation experience and dual-jurisdiction document work — led by the head of the firm's marriage and family department.

The people behind the files
The marriage and family department — the lawyers who handle the work, and the team supporting them.
Public trust assets
Mediation centre led by a retired judge
More than 30 years of mediation experience leads the centre. Whether the matter ends in agreement or judgment, the working assumption is that it should be handled quietly, with the smallest possible footprint.
Publications and public education
A marriage and family title with more than 200,000 copies in circulation, and a public lecture series on emotional-crisis resolution running since 2018 with more than 100 sessions delivered.
Media and moot court
Invited law firm on Beijing Television's Third Mediation Room programme; a dedicated moot court used for pre-hearing preparation in complex matters.
Bilingual coordination
English and Chinese coordination for authorisation, notarisation, Apostille, legalisation, translation and court materials — the steps that most often delay a cross-border file.
Thank-you banners from clients
In China a client who has been helped often presents a banner (jinji) as a formal thank-you. The department has received more than 5,400. These are from recent matters; client identities have been obscured.
