In addition, our team is among Taiwan's most prominent and experienced business lawyers that advise clients on corporate, securities, environmental, intellectual property, labor, and tax issues.

The depth and breadth of our attorneys' combined experience span all areas of coordinating, structuring, documenting, and implementing inbound, and outbound investments, including acquisitions, divestitures, financings, joint ventures, mergers, reorganizations, spin-offs, strategic alliances, and other business combinations involving both publicly-listed and private companies. Whether acting as "lead counsel" during negotiation, structuring and implementation of mergers and acquisitions, or as "local counsel" advising on Taiwan regulations and legal intricacies as part of a larger global M&A transaction, we are recognized as one of the most competent local and global law firms.
