On September 21, 2022, China Business Law Journal, the renowned global legal media journal, announced the 2022 Best Overall Law Firm Awards for different regions in China. JunHe won four awards.

Best Overall Law Firms (Shanghai)

For its original and in-depth understanding in various fields, JunHe’s Shanghai office was awarded the Best Overall Law Firm (Shanghai).  JunHe’s Shanghai office has provided excellent legal services to many famous enterprises including SHRCB, MicroPort and SAIC Motor. 

Best Overall Law Firms (Hong Kong)

Award Motivation:

JunHe’s Hong Kong office has successfully assisted many mainland and local companies to list in Hong Kong.  Its practice areas include private placements, directed issuances, preference shares and bond offerings.

Many important transactions were undertaken in the past year including China Railway Construction Corporation’s (CRCC) spin-off Star listing, which was the first such domestic listing after the new spin-off regulations were announced; Chengdu Communication investment Group’s issuance of USD 600 million overseas bonds, which set two records for the largest issuance size and the lowest interest rate of US dollar bonds for local SOEs in Sichuan in recent years; and Jingjiang Port Group’s issuance of overseas US dollar bonds, setting the lowest interest rate in the history of US dollar bonds prepared by urban investment rather than China’s four big state-owned banks.

Best Overall Law Firms (Guangdong)

The two branch offices set up in Guangdong by JunHe, the Guangzhou office and the Shenzhen office, have established a solid working relationship with the various administrative departments and State-owned assets supervision regulatory bodies in the region. They have been involved in  development and reform, foreign exchange, land, real estate, taxation and market supervision in South China, and have communicated and obtained guidance from relevant departments regarding the application of laws and regulations in local practice.  JunHe has also established cooperative relations with various intermediaries in South China, which enables clients to obtain convenient and efficient service through mutually beneficial cross-industry cooperation.
