Beijing Tiandou Law Firm has become a household name in the franchise consulting space today. The firm employs over 50 lawyers and employees to effectively serve clients.
Its founder, Honggang Liang, has been practicing law since 2007, providing legal services to franchises, dispute resolution, and corporate matters. Its team handles every aspect of a commercial franchise, including but not limited to franchise filing with China’s Ministry of Commerce, franchise disclosure, franchise-related contractual work, operations, IP services, contractual relationship management, financial/tax services, and litigation/arbitration.
“Our team can meet a franchise’s legal needs at every stage of its development. Our expertise and rich experience accumulated over 17 years are the bedrock of our stable relationship with clients and their trust in us,” says Liang, founder and owner of Beijing Tiandou Law Firm.
The firm takes proactive measures to stay at the forefront of industry trends and offer high-grade services to its diverse clientele. The firm stays on top of the most recent franchise activities to provide the latest information to clients. It also studies franchise-related lawsuits released by Chinese courts every year, as well as administrative penalties.
The work enables Beijing Tiandou Law Firm to draft/modify agreement templates, handle the relationship between franchisor and franchisee, and offer advice on franchise operation more effectively. In addition, the firm has long-term cooperation with research institutions and business schools, which enhances its authority in this field of practice.
Last but not least, Beijing Tiandou Law Firm maintains frequent communication with franchisors over various types of operational issues, which in turn prepares it for challenges in later services.
In one instance, the company’s team was hired to file with the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, a necessary step to becoming a franchisor in China. Due to differences in administrative systems and requirements on franchisors among countries, successful filing with the ministry can be quite difficult for foreign players. So far, only 120 foreign franchisors have succeeded. Beijing Tiandou Law Firm’s work enabled the client to gain access to the market and their solicitation. The firm then advised clients on localizing their operations and helped them better understand China’s policy.
Beijing Tiandou Law Firm’s long-term vision is to provide high-quality services to franchises that reach every part of the world and to become one of the first choices of legal teams in this market. The firm is actively helping franchisors enter the Chinese market and promoting Chinese players in the overseas market. In the meantime, it is also strengthening ties with operational bodies abroad.
