概览

本团队代理客户在美洲、欧洲、亚洲及世界其他地区的相关政府部门处理贸易救济事宜。我们还在不同的国内及国际审判庭就判决提出上诉，并实行WTO争端解决机构的所有适用裁决。此外，我们亦协助客户大力保护市场份额，制定国际业务结构，通常由本行贸易专家在客户公司进行倾销“诊断”，以便将其脆弱性降至最低，避免贸易救济诉讼趁虚而入。

反倾销及补贴问题
我们代理客户应对反倾销调查及审查、反规避及相关诉讼，其中既涉及市场经济体，也涉及非市场经济体和国家（譬如中国内地）中具有公司特性的市场经济地位。在美国商务部和国际贸易委员会（位于华盛顿）、欧盟委员会和理事会（位于布鲁塞尔）、巴西贸易防御部（位于巴西利亚）、墨西哥贸易救济调查局（位于墨西哥城）以及中华人民共和国商务部（位于北京）等行政当局，我们均曾代理客户取得重大胜利。

本行律师擅于帮助客户获得政府财政支持，同时最大程度避免不利补贴诉讼。我们就涉嫌非法补贴引发的纠纷——诸如反补贴税诉讼、欧盟贸易壁垒条例诉讼或WTO 争端解决程序——向私有企业及政府提供有效的支持与指引。

保障措施
尽管保障措施始终是非常规手段，却能够使钢铁及纺织行业在不断增长、公平定价的进口产品冲击下获得救济。如有必要，我们能够协助客户避免或应对此类问题。

美国贸易法第301条及欧盟《贸易壁垒条例》
本行贸易团队代理客户对两类主要的贸易侵权提起控诉或进行抗辩：由美国贸易代表受理的美国贸易法第301条诉讼以及由欧盟委员会审理的欧盟《贸易壁垒条例》诉讼。我们还协助客户利用欧盟或欧盟成员国条约项下的权利及程序改善产品和服务市场准入途径。
