Cross-border enforcement has always been a challenge and key point in foreign-related cases. This practical seminar aimed to strengthen business communication between Longan Guangzhou and Longan Hong Kong. By means of seminars and case analysis, the collaboration level between lawyers from both regions was improved, and the judicial assistance mechanisms of both regions were fully and effectively utilized to better protect the rights and interests of clients.
In recent years, Longan Guangzhou and Longan Hong Kong have jointly held several Hong Kong business exchange meetings, with topics including Hong Kong asset investigation, trends in the Hong Kong legal service market, business trends in Hong Kong family offices, property distribution in Hong Kong divorce cases, new models for cross-border enforcement of judgments from both regions, and Hong Kong fund business. This is a gradual exploration of cross-regional cooperation by Longan Bay Office, and also reflects the coordinated development of Longan Bay. In the future, Longan Guangzhou will actively establish a communication and cooperation platform for Longan Bay to promote exchanges, integration, and development of the office in the bay area, and jointly expand the brand influence of Longan.
