Movers & Shakers

Morris, Manning & Martin, LLP has opened an office in the heart of Beijing, China. In addition, the firm opened an office in Taipei, Taiwan on April 1, 2009. Until the requisite approvals are received in both China and Taiwan, the offices will operate as business development centers.

“We are extremely pleased with our international success, particularly in China. It is an integral part of our long-term strategic plan,” commented Managing Partner Robert E. Saudek, adding “We view our approach as twofold; first assisting with intellectual property patent prosecution and potential litigation, second assisting with corporate and securities matters.”

The firm's Asia Practice includes more than a dozen Mandarin speakers with deep connections to China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. The practice is primarily focused on representing Chinese, Taiwanese, and other Pacific-rim-based companies and institutions with their operations in the United States. The practice increasingly represents U.S. and other international companies with their operations in both countries.

The firm hosted an opening ceremony for its Beijing office in conjunction with the arrival of a delegation from the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce (“MACOC”) and the Georgia Department of Economic Development (“GDEcD”). The leader of the firm's Asia Practice partner Tim Tingkang Xia, Ph.D., Dr. Ping Wang, and Ming Jiang, Ph.D., as well as Raymond Ho and Amelia Lin of the Taipei office represented the firm at the opening ceremony. Dr. Jiang will remain at the office to serve as its local administrator. “I think it would be a significant benefit for us,” said GDEcD Commissioner Ken Stewart. “The more connections we have with Beijing companies and individuals, the more beneficial it is for us.”
