Prospect: A Global Law Firm

Strategic Alliance
      Because of globalization and rapid advancement in information, communication and biotechnology, the economic and social activities of both multinational and local enterprises are increasingly in need of professional legal services involving cross-border and multidisciplinary transactions. This calls for a new approach to legal services, one that provides more than traditional legal expertise. The key to success in this new economic environment is efficient teamwork and coordination among professionals and experts from various fields, working together to create a competitive edge for the clients by reducing the time and cost involved.

     Accordingly, strategic alliance has become a vital part of the Firm's strategy in exploring specialized professional fields and working closely with experts across professional fields in order to better provide integrated, multidisciplinary packages to our clients.

One-Stop Inquiry

     In 1973, Professor Dr. S. S. Tzeng, Esq. and Mr. C. L. Lin, CPA created Chien Yeh Law Offices and Chien Yeh Certified Public Accountants, respectively. The term “Association,” originally incorporated into the two firms' Chinese names, reflected that , despite the fact that the two firms were created as independent entities, they were located on the same premise and had always been closely associated mutually in offering one-stop services to the firms' clients. Today, the Firm continues to develop close association with CPA firms and the Firm can offer institutional and individual clients efficient, on-the-spot and integrated services for all their legal, commercial, financial and accounting needs.

     With the collective resources and full collaboration of its strategic alliance partners, the Firm is dedicated to providing its clients and alliances with a broad range of consultancy services. If any of our clients need services involving expertise in finance, accounting, engineering, information technology or intellectual property rights, the Firm can provide pertinent information immediately. This not only adds to the value of the Firm's legal services but also satisfies our clients' needs for multidisciplinary services.

 
Mission: Profession-Oriented and Internationalization

     As multinational enterprises in developed countries undergo industrial restructuring on a global scale, world legal services also evolve towards international networking, scale economy and specialization. The adaptation of the international legal system to this globalization movement further creates a strong demand for international legal services.

     In recent years, the Firm has been swiftly expanding its scale, scope of services and expertise, as well as continuing to improve its quality of service. Having extended its scope of services to investment, commerce and trade areas, the Firm is one of the best legal counseling partners, offering integrated and cross-field counseling to our clients. Working closely with its strategic partners, the Firm provides comprehensive legal services involving auditing, accounting, finance, international financing, cross-border investment, merger & acquisition, engineering, transportation and intellectual property rights as well as emerging industries, such as financial insurance, IT, cyber laws, e-commerce and bioengineering.

     Due to historical background and globalization trend, American and European law firms are more experienced than Taiwanese firms in terms of comprehensive strength, specialization, expertise, quality of service and overall scale. For international networking, the Firm therefore cooperates closely with major law firms in the U.S. , Japan , and China , as the Firm continues to make remarkable progress and breakthrough in office operation, teamwork and reputation.


Goal: Strength, Efficiency, Profiting, and Reward

     The legal service for international project financings and corporate mergers often involves issues across many jurisdictions and specialized fields. To meet this challenge, the Firm requires its lawyers to have a high standard of expertise, language skills and cross-field knowledge. For those with only local training, a master's degree is indispensable. In addition to the basic law degree requirement, the Firm encourages its attorneys to possess expertise in other fields, as demonstrated by having another degree or professional license. Currently, our colleagues' expertise ranges from foreign literature, education, economy, medicine, business management, environmental engineering, civil engineering, public health, biomaterials, mass media, telecommunication engineering, financial insurance, and financial management to land registration.

     Furthermore, with the rise of e-commerce and intellectual property industries, the Firm realizes that information technology and legal services have become inseparable. At the same time, the Firm continues to invest in information technology and upgrading of equipments and infrastructure, with the aim of reducing costs of business administration, increasing professional efficiency and overall strength and quality of the Firm.

     Unlike solo practitioners or small-sized law firms that rely on personal relations to solicit clients, the Firm recognizes the importance of teamwork and resource sharing in increasing its competitive strengths and efficiency. Working together, our colleagues learn from one another and contribute to improving the quality and standard of work and winning our clients' trust and confidence. The spirit of teamwork extends beyond the Firm's own offices, and the Firm maintains good relationships with both the public and private sectors at the administrative level, as well as with foreign offices and clients.

     The Firm's most valuable asset is our talented people. The Firm is very proud of our team's personal and professional achievements and provides them with well-founded training programs and incentives to improve even more. With five years of continuous excellence in performance evaluation, lawyers or other personnel will be awarded generous wages or scholarship to pursue additional studies or trainings abroad.
