The Asia Imperative: Entry Strategies For Law Firms Into China
Course Description:
The unusual alliance between Beijing-based firm King & Wood and Australia's Mallesons Stephen Jaques has sent shockwaves across the Pacific Rim.
The resulting Asia-based legal powerhouse would place the new venture, King & Wood Mallesons, somewhere in the top 15 of the AmLaw's Global 100 Ranking.
Law firms follow money and many Western firm leaders are closely watching the deal as they recognize the growing importance of cross-regional tie-ups involving Asian law firms.
