Shanghai-headquartered Hui Ye Law Firm has entered into a strategic alliance with Cyprus law firm Stavros Christo & Partners (SC&P), and separately will open an office in the city of Hefei in Anhui Province. 

SC&P advises on wealth management, tax and asset protection. The alliance comes a week after Hui Ye announced it was tying up with French firm Adamas. The Shanghai firm now has strategic alliances with law firms in Canada, France, Switzerland, Sweden, Australia and Cyprus. 

Meanwhile, the Hefei office will be Hui Ye’s 14th domestic branch. Led by partner Qiao Tian, the office will focus on civil law, economic law, criminal defence, and administrative law, and on construction projects and international extradition cases. The office will have a total headcount of 30 people, including 10 partners. 

Hui Ye is also planning offices in other cities like Changzhou, Wuxi and Los Angeles.
