Founded in 2003, Docvit Law Firm is a full-service law firm based in Beijing, renowned for its expertise in commercial disputes, particularly in financial litigation and investigations, corporate and insolvency litigation. The firm is also active in construction and real estate disputes, intellectual property disputes, and international arbitration. Senior partners Guangchao Liu and Guanghu Shi lead the dispute resolution team.
During the research period, the legal team, led by partner Wei Lin, represented a lithium supplier in a significant contract dispute involving Rmb110 million ($15 million). The dispute arose when the client, due to an abnormal increase in lithium carbonate prices, could not supply 633 tons at the agreed price to a material company. By applying the principle of changed circumstances, the team successfully convinced the court to rule that their client did not breach the contract, setting a significant precedent and providing important guidance for future cases with similar issues.
Previously, the firm has handled several administrative disputes and represented various corporations in cases involving equity transfer, contractual issues, and corporate bond trading, most of which remain confidential. Last year, the firm hired nine new partners to strengthen its dispute resolution capabilities.
