Trading with China:
Get the Contract Right. Avoid the Dispute.
Most international businesses don’t lose money because of bad deals - they lose it due to poor contracts and weak legal structure.
We help you structure, protect, and enforce your transactions in China.
Why Trading with China
Goes Wrong
Trading with China is not inherently risky —
but many international businesses enter without the right structure.
This leads to avoidable losses.
Contracts not enforceable in China
English-only contracts may not be enforceable in Chinese courts
Difficulty claiming against faulty or non-compliant goods
Wrong supplier or contracting entity
Payment terms not properly secured
Intellectual property copied or leaked
Misaligned expectations on delivery and quality
No clear dispute resolution strategy
Even when you are right — you may not be able to recover your money.
Real Risk Example
A foreign company received defective goods from a Chinese supplier that did not meet agreed specifications.
The contract was in English only, lacked clear liability terms, and named the wrong entity. When the supplier refused responsibility, the buyer was unable to enforce the contract in China or recover losses through legal action.
