Notable Legal Work

We serve both local and overseas clients. Many of our clients have great ideas, innovative technologies but shoe-string budget. We have been acting as their 'in-house IP consult', advising them the most cost-effective ways to build up their IP portfolio. Since the Chinese legal system and the Chinese IP environment is quite different from that of Western jurisdictions, Western clients are beginning to recognise that they need a Chinese element in their IP strategy from the very beginning – not as an afterthought to their original IP focus. For example, in one case, we have successfully obtained around 100 patents worldwide for a local pharmaceutical company over the years. This company was listed in the UK. Separately, a California based multinational pharmaceutical company has entrusted us to manage their entire Chinese patent portfolio (more than 30 applications). In another case, we managed to obtain several key U.S. patents for a fast growing biomedical research company in a short time, which is planning to be listed in the US.
