Dispute Resolution

Dispute resolution has been AllBright’s core practice area. Nowadays, with the widespread branches and cooperation network across the country, AllBright has formed an intergrated system of dispute resolution. When faced with various needs of clients from different regions, especially cases that cover many regions, involve complicated legal relations, or of large scale/serial disputes, AllBright could achieve effective transregional engagement, design and enforce service plans that best protect the clients’ interests.

Our Nationwide Network and Global Vision:

With the headquarter in Shanghai, AllBright has established over twenty branch offices throughout the country located in Beijing, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other first-tier cities and economically developed regions. Especially, we have opened branch offices in regions where six circuit courts of the Supreme People's Court are located (Shenzhen, Nanjing, Zhengzhou, Chongqing, Xi’an and Changchun). Leveraging the influence that we have earned in various regions, AllBright can quickly and actively respond to the needs of clients regarding dispute resolution legal services. In addition, in response to different needs of clients in various regions, we can take advantage of our nationwide cooperation network and fully utilize our combined strength to quickly coordinate across regions. This allows us to promptly and efficiently offer clients comprehensive and complete legal solutions for dispute resolution.

At the same time, to adapt to economic globalization as well as the internationalization of legal services and respond to the Belt and Road Initiative, AllBright has established long-term partnerships with law firms in many different jurisdictions around the world. Some respected foreign law firms have concluded strategic partnerships with AllBright for comprehensive and in-depth cooperation in the provision of cross-border dispute resolution services.
