Included services

Below is a list of the legal services we offer Individual Protection Plan members. Members can enjoy up to a TOTAL of 8 free legal services per year. Each legal service has a restriction on the number of times it can be used per year. This means that members can choose ANY combination of the following services, as long as they do not exceed the limit of each service. Next to each service (in brackets) is the maximum amount of times you can use that service per year:

Telephone Consultation

What if you had a lawyer you could call anytime to ask…anything?

All members are entitled to free telephone consultations with a lawyer. Simply call or email us to request a callback from one of our lawyers. Your lawyer will aim to return the call the same business day. At certain times your lawyer may have prior professional commitments, at such times he or she will call you back within twenty four hours. Each consultation is subject to a maximum time limit of one hour. (Up to 8 times per year)

Office Consultation

Does your enquiry require a more personal approach?

If you want to meet with your lawyer to discuss your requirements then you can visit our office. Again, simply call or email us to arrange a visit, once we have received your request we will contact you within forty eight hours. Consultations must be booked in advance. (Up to 2 times per year)

Home/Office Visit

Too busy to visit us? Then let us come to you.

We understand that your time is valuable, which is why we offer a convenient onsite consultation. If you are unable to leave the office or are just too busy, simply call us and we will arrange for your lawyer to visit you at the office or at home. A one hour consultation is treated as a Legal Service and all travel expenses will be paid by the member. (1 time per year)

Contract Review

Have you ever signed a Chinese contract you do not understand?

Members can have Chinese language contracts reviewed by a lawyer. Just send us the contract you want reviewed and your lawyer will review it and contact you within five days. Contracts are limited in length to three A4 pages. A full translation service is available and will be charged separately. (Up to 2 times per year)

Issuing Attorney Letters

Need to send a message? Say it with a letter.

All members can arrange to have legal letters drafted and sent by one of our lawyers. All letters will be issued within five business days. (1 time per year)

Property Law Consultation

Are you considering buying a property?

There are many laws and regulations that apply to a foreign individual buying a property in China. This process is made even more complicated because these laws and regulations are constantly updated. A property purchase is likely to be one of the most significant and expensive purchases you make. Your lawyer can help you with every stage in the process, from finding a mortgage to completing the sale. (1 time per year)
