Global Business Group : China Practice

From its base in the Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic U.S., Womble Carlyle has developed a record of helping companies such as yours, wherever they are located, explore opportunities for establishing or expanding operations in this region and beyond.

If you represent a Chinese company, we can help you do business in the U.S., particularly in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. We have helped Chinese companies establish subsidiaries in the U.S., form strategic alliances with U.S. partners, resolve disputes with U.S. companies, and protect their intellectual property in the U.S.

Likewise, if you represent a U.S. company, we can help you gain access to and do business in the rapidly growing Chinese market. Our attorneys have helped U.S. companies acquire equity interests in Chinese companies, form subsidiaries and joint ventures in China, and negotiate distribution and service agreements with Chinese entities.

Building relationships is a critical part of our process. We understand that entering an unfamiliar market can be difficult, so we work to help our clients better understand the legal and cultural differences between China and the U.S.

In 2007, a team of Womble Carlyle attorneys traveled to China to meet with business leaders and government officials. This trip helped create stronger bonds between the firm and our clients on both sides of the Pacific Ocean.
