DeHeng Successfully Helped Clients Resolve Legal Disputes in United States

2024-06-07

The DeHeng New York and Beijing cross border dispute resolution team, representing a new energy manufacturing company, is pleased to announce the successful resolution of a product liability case as a third-party defendant. After eight months of diligent effort, DeHeng team reached a settlement before the discovery phase, significantly reducing litigation costs for our client, marking an important milestone.

Although the plaintiff's initial demand far exceeded the final settlement amount, our client, as a third-party defendant, ultimately paid only a fraction of the original demand. Despite the plaintiff's persistent demands for a high settlement, which led to stalled negotiations, DeHeng team's continuous efforts and expertise resulted in a mutually satisfactory resolution.

The DeHeng New York and Beijing teams were lead by attorney Chen Xiaomin, the Managing Partner of our New York office and attorney Chen Xiao, partner of the cross border department of our Beijing office. DeHeng team meticulously handled every detail, from product technology analysis to fact recovery, from filing responses and managing document requests to handling discovery demands and conducting numerous litigation strategy updates and meetings. This cooperation highlighted the advantages of cross-border legal services, ensuring that every aspect of the case received thorough attention, leading to a successful resolution.

This significant achievement underscores our DeHeng lawyer’s commitment and ability to handle complex cases. The client expressed satisfaction with the settlement outcome and praised the DeHeng New York and Beijing teams for their professionalism and the results achieved. This successful case not only showcases the strengths of the DeHeng China-U.S. legal teams in international legal matters but also provides valuable experience for future cross-border legal cooperation.
