Asia-Expertise – Inbound and Outbound

Already in 2010 Chinese speaking lawyers established a China Desk in various locations of SCWP Schindhelm Services SE. Their ambition was to create an effective “One Stop Shop” for Chinese clients. The achievements of our clients are the confirmation of such engagement. Between the experts form the China Desk – this means between the European, Shanghai and Taicang colleagues as well as our colleagues of the South East Asia Network – a lively exchange of ideas takes place.

The South East Asia Network was founded and set up in 2015 to provide European clients with comprehensive legal advice in Asia. Due to many years of our personal experience, we had the opportunity to set up a network of experts that concentrates reliable and competent expertise for investments and legal advice in the South East Asian region.
