Review

Dispute resolution

The dispute resolution team of East & Concord Partners’ office in Zhejiang is strong in all kinds of commercial litigation and domestic and international commercial arbitration. The firm’s intellectual property practice witnessed an improvement too.

Within the disputes team, many lawyers are senior arbitrators of the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission and other arbitration institutions. Commercial disputes specialist Yanshan Li is a key name in the team.

During the research cycle, the team represented SC Houston, a US subsidiary of Junzheng Group, in an employment dispute brought by the plaintiff, the former president of the company, in which the court dismissed all of the plaintiff's claims and decided it was not re-litigable. The case demonstrated the team's ability in cross-border legal matters. In addition, the team handles cases such as lending disputes, insurance contract disputes, unfair competition disputes, trademark infringement, and construction contract disputes.

Major clients include Bank of Hangzhou Shanghai Branch, Shenzhen Guanghui Petroleum & Marine Group, Zhejiang Energy Group and Zhejiang Hanggang Financial Leasing.
