Hai Run Law Firm

Beijing-headquartered Hai Run Law Firm was formed in January 2018 by the merger of two former longstanding firms, Beijing Hairun Law Firm and Beijing Tianrui Law Firm. Hai Run Law Firm is now home to more than 300 lawyers across six offices in China. Its dispute resolution team is active in several practice areas, such as commercial, intellectual property and insolvency.

Notable firm contacts include managing partners Jinlong Zhou and Huiyuan Luo, who specialise in commercial disputes matters.

Last year, the firm advised Huadian New Energy Development Co., one of the largest new energy power generation operators in China, in series of disputes. Also the team advised China Nuclear Investment on a financial loan contract dispute with China Nuclear (Pingtan) Science and Technology Park Investment Partnership Enterprise, Beijing Shunhua Real Estate and Bank of Beijing. This case will be a precedent for other similar cases if the plaintiff wins, given that cases of this kind are rare, despite support found in laws and regulations.

The firm has many notable clients in banking, including Agricultural Bank of China, Bank of China, Minsheng Bank, Hua Xia Bank and China CITIC Bank.
