Cross-border Litigation
Trade between China and the United States has been steadily increasing in recent years. When US and Chinese companies find themselves embroiled in complex, high-stakes disputes that cross national boundaries, Reid & Wise brings together its recognized strengths in international law and litigation to attain successful results.
We are uniquely positioned among US law firms to provide that assistance. Many of our attorneys are bilingual and are experienced in practicing law in the US and China. We regularly assist Chinese companies in disputes with US customers and suppliers, to ensure that their rights are protected both in the American court system and in arbitral forums.
In addition to our Shanghai office, we have teamed up with the highest ranking law firms in China to provide US clients access to various levels of litigation support in China. We are experienced in selecting and supervising local Chinese counsel and in coordinating parallel litigation proceedings simultaneously in both the US and China. Our longstanding experience with Chinese courts, judges, and legal systems gives our clients a distinct advantage when litigating overseas.
