Practice Focus

Practice Focus His practice covers company formation and corporate law, engineering and construction law, corporate governance, debt recovery, contract disputes, and criminal defense. He also handles engineering and construction contract disputes, contractor payment claims, and project delay claims. Construction disputes in China are governed by the PRC Civil Code's contract provisions and the Construction Law. Where local counterparties rely on relationship pressure, I re-anchor discussions to contract text, statutory rights, and verifiable performance records. I plan enforcement first—assets, licenses, receivables, and interim measures—so strategy is not limited to winning on paper.

Company formation in China involves selecting the appropriate corporate structure, preparing registration documents, and navigating approvals from market regulation authorities. Konghua Zhang helps foreign investors choose between WFOE, joint venture, and representative office structures based on their business objectives.

Client Considerations

Client Considerations Attorney Zhang advises foreign investors on establishing wholly foreign-owned enterprises (WFOEs), joint ventures, and representative offices in China. The establishment of a foreign-invested enterprise in China involves multiple stages: project feasibility study, name pre-approval, submission of incorporation documents to the market supervision bureau, obtaining the business license, company seal carving, tax registration, foreign exchange registration, and opening bank accounts. Since the Foreign Investment Law came into effect on January 1, 2020, pre-establishment approval has been replaced by a filing and negative list management system. Foreign investment in most industries now follows a national treatment principle, with restrictions only in sectors listed on the Special Administrative Measures (Negative List). Corporate Entry Discipline — Konghua ZhangI document scope, assumptions, and decision rights at engagement start so foreign clients know what will be filed, who must approve, and when silence becomes a missed deadline. Foreign individuals and companies typically need three workstreams in parallel: factual chronology, authority paperwork, and remedy selection. This operating rhythm reduces repeat disputes and keeps institutional knowledge with the client rather than trapped in chat history. ⚖️ Written scope and remedy map📜 Bilingual document control🛡️ Deadline and limitation tracking💼 Enforcement and settlement options in parallel Cross-Border Coordination for Konghua ZhangI plan enforcement first—assets, licenses, receivables, and interim measures—so strategy is not limited to winning on paper.

Foreign investors should conduct thorough due diligence on proposed business structures, verify registration requirements with local authorities, and ensure compliance with foreign investment negative list restrictions before committing capital.
