Association promotes training for growing international role

More than 300 lawyers from 100 law firms have received training that will enable them to deal with cross-border lawsuits, according to the All China Lawyers Association.

The legal professionals will handle transnational litigation cases involving overseas investments, multinational mergers and acquisitions, IPR protection, safeguarding oceanic and space interests, and antitrust and anti-dumping cases.

In recent years, many Chinese businesses have expanded overseas and engaged in multinational mergers and acquisitions, leading to a rise in the number of cross-border legal disputes.
