In cross-border inheritance matters, even where the right of inheritance itself is undisputed, the commencement and advancement of litigation often face more complex obstacles than in domestic cases, including the identification of a proper defendant, notarization and authentication of overseas documents, and the determination of court jurisdiction. The absence of any one of these elements may prevent the case from being accepted by the court or cause prolonged delay. In this

Recently, Attorneys Larry Zhou and Avon Zhao of Landing (Shenzhen) Law Office achieved a final and effective victory in a dispute arising from misdelivery without presentation of the original bill of lading. The Guangzhou Maritime Court ruled that the relevant carrier shall compensate the exporter for the outstanding cargo payment, freight losses, and corresponding interest, totaling nearly RMB 900,000. In this case, a cross-border trade dispute arose between an export enterp

In international trade of goods, every transaction is crucial to the buyer, regardless of the order value. However, when quality issues arise with the goods, cross-border distance often makes it difficult for buyers to effectively hold sellers accountable. In 2025, a Romanian company (hereinafter referred to as the “Client”) purchased a total of 100 metric tons of welded steel pipes from a supplier in Jinan, China, and paid the full amount of the purchase price. Upon arrival

A certain export enterprise sold goods to a foreign buyer and handed over the cargo to its cooperating freight forwarder for shipment, who then sub-entrusted the task to another forwarder.

Even a

In December 2024, a Guangzhou company engaged a Shenzhen freight forwarding company to provide door-to-door delivery services. After the Guangzhou company provided the designated delivery address, the freight forwarder sent a statement of account, which the Guangzhou company acknowledged and approved. Subsequently, the freight forwarder completed the transportation as agreed. However, despite multiple payment reminders, the Guangzhou company still refused to pay the freight c

For businesses, the more practical question is: after finally winning a case overseas, how do you actually recover the money? Recently, Attorney Zhou Shichao's team assisted a Guangzhou company in handling an international contract dispute. We not only successfully obtained a favorable judgment from a U.S. court, but also continued to make efforts during the subsequent enforceme

An Australian company needed custom-made products and signed a contract with a company in Zhejiang, China. The Australian client provided its own design plans and draft drawings, and also paid the advance of about $50,000 as required, but never received products that met the agreed standards. Later, disputes arose between the two parties over issues such as product quality and inspection methods. The Chinese supplier refused to deliver the products or provide compensation. Af

In commercial cooperation, "back-to-back" payment clauses often lead to performance deadlocks, putting the realization of creditor's rights into a state of uncertainty or even permanent delay. Recently, Attorney Larry and Attorney Laney secured a complete victory for their client in a contract dispute with a cross-border financial enterprise. The court upheld all of our client’s claims and dismissed all counterclaims brought by the opposing party.

In cross-border trade, one of the biggest challenges for buyers is how to quickly secure compensation when sellers default.

In this case, the U.S. company had fully paid for the goods as contractually agreed, but the Zhejiang supplie
