Exclusivity, term and terminationWhat you are giving up and for how long, what you get for it, and what it takes to get out.

Differences between the two versions of a bilingual contract can be the most valuable findings, particularly where the contract says the Chinese text prevails: we note every place the two say different things and what that means for you commercially. Where one version is missing, or a bank or registry needs a certified rendering of the signed contract, we can prepare a certified translation alongside the review.
