Importance of foreign-related legal talents

    With the gradual acceleration of global economic integration and the in-depth advancement of the "the Belt and Road" initiative and the "going out" strategy, more and more Chinese companies choose to invest overseas to achieve business, market expansion, and corporate internationalization development.

    A large number of Chinese enterprises "go out" to invest and acquire overseas, and the ensuing transnational disputes and legal affairs are also on the rise in market expansion and corporate internationalization development.

    USBAR Examination

    In the United States, the law exams are administered by the highest courts of the states. Generally speaking, if you want to take the U.S. bar exam and obtain a U.S. lawyer's license, most states require a U.S. J.D. or LL.M degree to qualify for the exam. Among them, California and New York are the states where Chinese people take the most exams when choosing foreign-related lawyers because of their superior geographical environment, high income, good benefits, and great room for advancement.
