Case Results
Real matters, anonymised: how we've helped foreign companies recover money, resolve disputes and get set up in China.
¥4.2M recovered
A Dutch electronics importer paid RMB 4.6 million in deposits to a Shenzhen supplier that stopped shipping and began moving assets. A pre-litigation freeze obtained within days forced a settlement recovering 91% of the claim.
US$1.9M awarded
A Brazilian food-packaging company received four filling lines that failed every acceptance test. A CIETAC arbitration built on contemporaneous inspection evidence produced a US$1.9 million award, paid in full after enforcement filing.
Brand recovered in 11 months
A former distributor's affiliate registered a Danish children's brand's trademarks in China and demanded RMB 800,000 to release them. Invalidation actions built on the prior business relationship recovered the marks without payment.
Penalty eliminated
A Japanese auto-parts group found three years of trademark royalties had never been added to the dutiable value of its China imports. A carefully framed voluntary disclosure settled the back duties with no administrative penalty.
5-week WFOE setup
A Swiss precision-components manufacturer had to invoice a key Shenzhen customer locally within one quarter or lose the account. Parallel-tracked incorporation delivered a banked, tax-registered WFOE in five weeks.
100% buyout closed
A US industrial coatings group was locked in a 50/50 Guangzhou joint venture where the partner controlled the chops and blocked every board decision. A dissolution-leveraged negotiation delivered a full buyout at appraised value in seven months.
Zero arbitration claims
A UK electronics manufacturer closing a Shenzhen production line needed to separate 76 employees without triggering the wave of labor arbitration claims that usually follows. A structured mutual-termination program closed every position in three weeks.
38,000 counterfeits seized
Counterfeits of a Spanish footwear brand were flowing from Guangdong workshops into export channels and online listings. A combined customs recordal, raid and seizure program took out the source factories within a year.
