Greater China Region

The firm’s style and succinctness. It’s very hard to find someone who can negotiate in English, translate to a Chinese executive and make him feel like a local. It gives us a very unique advantage.

James is a unique character, a true intellectual. I also admire him for his overall legal depth. He is truly bilingual but also bi-cultural.
