Beijing

The Beijing office, opened in June 2008, is one of three Weil offices in Asia. Our Beijing office works in concert with teams in Hong Kong and Shanghai to help clients meet the growing demands and challenges they face in local and cross-border Asian markets.

Our Asia practice focuses on complex, high-stakes transactional matters for corporate and private equity clients, from domestic transactions in one jurisdiction to cross-border transactions that are impacted by multiple jurisdictions worldwide.

Frequently, working with other Weil lawyers throughout the world, our lawyers in Beijing advise on transactions in a number of different areas, including:

  • Mergers & acquisitions
  • Private Equity
  • International securities offerings
  • Joint ventures
  • Restructurings
We advise on multi-jurisdictional cross-border transactions involving Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe. We also provide advice on corporate governance and general corporate matters.
As China’s emerging influence on the world economy continues to grow, enormous opportunities for companies doing business in Asia have arisen. Our team of lawyers in Beijing helps clients meet the growing demands and challenges they face in the Asian markets.
