Dispute Resolution has been a core practice area deeply cultivated by Everbright for over three decades. Our team has long represented domestic and international enterprises, financial institutions, and investors in handling major, complex civil and commercial litigation, commercial arbitration, and enforcement matters. We have accumulated profound experience across corporate and equity disputes, financial claims, real estate and construction, bankruptcy-derivative litigation, and cross-border controversies.

Guided by our clients' commercial objectives and the realization of their assets, our team adopts a holistic approach that coordinates negotiation, mediation, preservation, litigation, arbitration, and enforcement. Depending on the needs of each case, we integrate the professional expertise of our corporate and commercial, finance, real estate and construction, intellectual property, and liquidation and restructuring practices to tackle complex disputes intertwined with multiple parties, procedures, and jurisdictions. We focus not only on the outcome of individual cases but also attach great importance to the impact of a dispute on transaction arrangements, asset security, business continuity, and commercial relationships.
