Attorneys at law Borenius aims to be the prime choice of legal advisor for both Finnish companies entering into China/cooperating with Chinese partners, and Chinese companies entering into Finland/cooperating with Finnish partners.
Carrying out Finnish-Chinese deals successfully requires thorough understanding in legal and cultural differences between the nations. We assist our clients to bridge the substantial gaps not only in legal environments, but also in the cultures and languages between the nations. From the perspective of legal matters, we offer strong cross-boarder M&A experience and have specialized competence in foreign-related contracts, foreign investments, intellectual property transfer and transactions relating to natural resource. From the perspective and cultural and language matters, we ensure the ultimate accuracy and efficiency in both legal and business communications among parties, which is especially crucial for the success of a fast-paced transaction. Currently we are assisting many Chinese clients with a great variety of business establishments in Finland, and also multinational corporations investing in China or cooperating with Chinese business partners.
Our China Desk is headed by partner Samuli Simojoki and includes lawyer Sha Wang. Sha is a native Chinese speaking lawyer based in Helsinki, who holds not only law degrees from both Finland and China, but also National Bar qualification from China. With the eligibility of law practice in both Finland and China, we enable professional legal advices on both Finnish and Chinese law matters, reliable business-relevant guidance on both markets, accurate legal communication with clients in their own languages, and an excellent understanding of the various cultural and communicational differences between Finnish and Chinese partners. Moreover, we are also able to prepare all legal documents in native Chinese language if needed.
We have also established excellent contacts with the leading law firms in both Mainland China and Hong Kong, which enables us to find the most suitable local advisor for assignments whenever needed.
