About Us
Your China law advisor in the United States.



Welcome to Zhan Law, a China law consulting firm in Iowa, United States. We offer China law consulting services to clients who are expanding their international business to the China market. With decades of practical experience between the U.S. and China, we have served clients from many countries in navigating the Chinese legal system since China entered the WTO in 2001. Due to China’s unique business culture and legal system, we are experienced in providing pragmatic and cost-effective legal solutions for our clients’ China strategies. Additionally, with our worldwide professional network, we assist our clients in various legal matters across different locations and circumstances.
​
Why Us
Due to intensified geopolitical conflicts and trade competition, today’s international business landscape has shifted significantly. More trade restrictions have been imposed unilaterally or retaliatorily. International businesses are facing turbulence due to shifting trade policies. Although there are still plenty of business opportunities, the ways and means of exploring those opportunities and managing legal risks from constant policy shifts and adjustments have become extremely challenging. Our advantage is that we have lived and worked in both the U.S. and China for decades and understand the differences in legal traditions, government practices, business cultures, and languages. We use comparative approaches to evaluate both sides and explain to our clients how to navigate and manage potential risks. We always compare the pros and cons before reaching the best solutions for our clients.
​
How It Works
Our services start by listening closely and understanding the client’s business, corporate culture, and business objectives. We serve as an ally to our clients who are looking for the best strategies to explore the international market. We diligently help clients analyze and understand the international regulatory environment, business culture, and market situations. Our practical experience, comprehensive knowledge of the American and Chinese legal systems and geopolitics, are the best assets to our clients.
​
​Partnership
We function as our clients’ business partner. We demonstrate our value through our professionalism in handling and managing legal issues and by providing cost-effective solutions to help clients achieve their business goals. Unlike large firms, we share our professional network and business resources when we believe that it is a better way to help via our service partners.
