Title: PC Woo & Co Law Group : China Practice
1CHINA PRACTICE
2P.C. Woo Co.'s China practice was established
in the late 80's in response to clients' demand
for supporting services on the Mainland. We
served as a much-needed link between our clients
and the local authorities. We also provided the
due diligence check on targets for acquisition or
investment and local regulatory compliance for
foreign investors. As for local applications
and filing, we maintained close collaboration
with members of the Perfectus Alliance, a network
of legal firms in all major cities in the PRC
promoted and established by us including
Shanghai, Xi'an, Nanjing, Chongqing, Wuhan,
Ningbo, Chengdu, Tianjin, Jinan, Hangzhou,
Zhongshan, Guangzhou, Yunan, Zhuhai and
Macau. In June 2002, we opened our Chengdu
Representative Office, being the first legal firm
in Hong Kong to establish a vital link between
the Western region of China and Hong Kong. In
2005, we opened our Nanjing Representative
Office. With the establishment of these two
representative offices, we can provide
consultancy services on Hong Kong laws and
out-of-China joint ventures, mergers and
acquisition for clients in the south western and
eastern regions of China. We can also meet the
diverse needs of clients and ensure that timely
and efficient and effective legal services are
provided to them.
