As one of the top three law firms in the world, according to Global Arbitration Review (2008), White & Case is also distinguished as a Tier One firm for China: Dispute Resolution (Hong Kong-Based Experts) by Chambers Asia 2008. With a strong presence throughout the Asia/Pacific region, the practice is centered in Hong Kong and has offices in Almaty, Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai, Singapore and Bangkok.
 
White & Case's Asia/Pacific team is notable for its work on complex and high-profile disputes in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Japan and across the Asia Pacific region.  We have been able to develop an in-depth and localized knowledge of business conditions, legal jurisdictions and regulatory regimes in the major financial and legal centers.  We have also had experience with all the major international arbitration rules, as well as the specific procedures applicable to arbitrations in Mainland China. 
 
Examples of matters in which the Asia/Pacific team has recently been involved include representing the Republic of Indonesia in an ICSID arbitration relating to an investment in a partially privatized corporate group and representing a People’s Republic of China joint venture in a complex contractual dispute with a US corporation under the Arbitration Rules of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce.
