China
KRCL's China Practice Group represents western companies doing business in or with China and represents Chinese companies looking to commence or expand operations in the United States. The China Practice Group has lawyers licensed in both China and the United States and offers Chinese and international trade law advice during normal American business hours. Based in Dallas, our rates are significantly less than larger firms maintaining offices in China or Chinese firms in Shanghai or Beijing. The China Practice Group can draft, negotiate and close entire transactions in Mandarin, Shanghaiese and/or English. More importantly, with attorneys licensed in both countries, we can help guide and integrate American finance, corporate and tax structures/concepts through and with the unique requirements of the developing Chinese legal and free market systems. Retention of KRCL can eliminate the need to hire separate American and Chinese law firms and immediately realize significant cost savings and time efficiency.
