With a particularly extensive network in mainland China, Latham & Watkins LLP regularly represents clients in substantial cross-border litigation throughout Asia, including disputes related to contract, shareholders, M&A and JV, banking and securities, and professional liability. Hui Xu is chair of the firm’s Asia litigation and trial department and advises clients on a broad range of claims, with a particular focus on resolving multi-jurisdictional white collar investigations and litigation. Solicitor advocate Dominic Geiser’s practice focuses on complex commercial litigation and he is one of the relatively few lawyers in Hong Kong who has been awarded Higher Rights of Audience in civil litigation matters.
