Labor & Employment Law | Protecting Your Rights in China’s Workplace

Legal assessment of termination grounds (valid vs. unlawful dismissal)

Negotiation for severance pay (N+1, 2N compensation under Labor Contract Law)

Litigation support for discrimination or retaliation cases
Why This Matters: Foreign employees often face abrupt termination without proper compensation—I ensure you receive what you’re owed.

Review and negotiation of non-compete terms (scope, duration, compensation)
-
Defense against unreasonable enforcement by former employers

Strategies to avoid penalties while transitioning to new roles
Key Advantage: Many non-compete clauses in China are unenforceable if improperly drafted—I’ll identify loopholes.

Legal demands for overdue salaries and bonuses
-
Labor complaints to local authorities (e.g., MOHRSS)
