Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province and the most populous city in Northwestern China, has experienced significant economic growth in recent years, fueled by key industries such as manufacturing, information technology, energy, and tourism. Historically recognised as the starting point of the ancient Silk Road, Xi’an has now emerged as a major logistics hub for the Belt and Road Initiative, serving as a crucial gateway to Central Asia and Europe.
The province boasts a number of well-established local law firms, including Shaanxi Jiaxuan Law Firm, Help Reaching Law Firm, Shaanxi Forever Law Firm, and Yong Jia Xin Law Firm. Many prominent non-local Chinese law firms have also set up offices in the province, among them Beijing-headquartered Kangda Law Firm, Shanghai-headquartered AllBright Law Offices, and Chengdu-headquartered Tahota Law Firm. Recent entrants into the Xi’an legal market include Hai Run Law Firm and JunHe LLP.
