Are you moving your manufacturing
to China? Looking for competitive bids from
Chinese firms to handle your new invention?
Buying property in China? Entering into a contract with a Chinese
firm? Seeking counsel about a violation
of your intellectual property by a Chinese entity?
Through alliances with
Chinese law firms, JMX offers a broad range of legal services to American and some
European countries. These services
include intellectual property disputes, patents and trademarks. JMX acts as a broker
for these legal services. We'll put
you in touch with the right firm based on your specific needs, then step out of
the way as you communicate directly with your Chinese attorney. JMX is paid a referral fee for this service, so we have no vested interest
in seeing you accumulate unnecessary legal bills.
The following are some fee schedules for intellectual property legal service provided
by one of the law firms we worked with. Rates are subject to change without notice.
The following rates are only for your reference.
