China Practice

Debevoise Has a Highly Active China Group


Debevoise’s China Group is based in Hong Kong and Shanghai, but also includes a number of lawyers from its international offices with specific experience advising on China related matters.

The firm represents both foreign companies doing business in China and Chinese companies on cross-border transactions. It is particularly active in advising on capital markets, private equity, M&A and foreign direct investment transactions. The practice also includes top-tier international compliance, litigation and arbitration services, including advising clients in emerging areas such as cybersecurity and data privacy.

Lawyers in the Group are all admitted in the U.S. or the UK, and combine this background with decades experience advising on China-related matters. This international capability coupled with deep regional experience makes the firm’s China Group one of the strongest in the market.
