June 26, 2023: The renowned legal media outlet, "China Business Law Journal," announced the winners of the "China Business Law Awards 2023." Shanghai Landing Law Offices stood out by bagging awards in two legal/business sectors: Intellectual Property (Trademarks) and Family Wealth Management. This marks the fourth consecutive year that Landing has clinched the Excellence Award from "China Business Law Journal," underscoring the firm's consistent high-performance in professional services, winning acclaim from both clients and peers.

Landing's dominance in Intellectual Property (Copyright) and Family Wealth Management has repeatedly been recognized by well-known awards, showcasing these as its formidable areas of expertise that have won the trust of many clients.

Last year, Shanghai Landing Law Offices successfully assisted Mengquan Trade（DC- Agent）  in litigation to protect its rights, proving that the defendant had infringed upon their client's rights. For many years, Mengquan has been the exclusive distributor of the Zuny brand in mainland China. When they discovered a company in Qingdao selling products on platforms like Taobao that held Zuny's copyrights, they filed a lawsuit against the said company. When the judge found it challenging to determine the amount, Landing provided evidence by submitting intellectual property licensing agreements, assisting in the calculation of the proportion of the profits from infringement attributable to copyright and trademark rights.

The head of Mengquan Trade praised Landing's IP services and professionalism and particularly recommended Senior Partner Gao Qiang from their Shanghai office. "Our company entrusted Gao Qiang's team at Landing to undertake our intellectual property rights protection and anti-counterfeiting efforts, and we have consistently received favorable judgments," he said.

Shanghai Landing Law Offices boasts rich experience in private wealth succession. Their Family Wealth Management department capitalizes on the firm's global outreach, assisting clients in utilizing the flexible legal mechanisms of overseas offshore centers, employing overseas trusts, and other tools for cross-border asset allocation and inheritance. Last year, after the sudden death of the controller of a private enterprise among their clients, Landing addressed the complex inheritance of equity in domestic and foreign companies under intricate family relationships, the ensuing battles for control, and the corresponding inheritance property's secondary wealth management and planning.
