Review

Dispute resolution

DeHeng Law Offices has two offices in Shaanxi province – in Xi'an and Xi'xian New Area. The firm’s Xi'xian New Area office, nominated by peers during the Benchmark Litigation China research interviews, focuses on commercial disputes and construction contract disputes.

Yuxin Yan, Qi Wang and Jun Xiao are the key names to note.

In 2023, the firm represented Yan'an University Xianyang Hospital in a dispute with Xianyang Shuangxing Real Estate Development Co. and Xianyang Langtian Jiacheng Real Estate Co. This case is the biggest case involving the largest amount of litigation since the establishment of Xianyang Hospital, and the total amount involved in this lawsuit and counterclaim is nearly Rmb200 million ($27.6 million). The biggest difficulty in the case is how to prove that the opposing parties constitutes a personality confusion, so that they can bear joint and several liabilities.

Additionally, the firm expanded its expertise by welcoming four new partners last year.
