Fangda Partners: A Step Ahead
By: Ashish Nanda and Lisa Rohrer
Abstract
Elite Chinese law firm Fangda Partners has steered Alibaba and other Chinese and international clients through the complex legal, corporate, and regulatory challenges associated with executing international transactions. “Fangda has traveled a long distance in a short while,” reflects senior partner Jonathan Zhou, “but we have a long distance to traverse further. We have lofty aspirations.” Fangda Partners seeks to build on its growth and strong reputation to establish itself as a major, high-end law firm in the Chinese market. What needs to be accomplished and how should Zhou proceed?
