Edward Lehman and Lehman, Lee & Xu Featured in American Lawyer Magazine

29 December 2005

(PRLEAP.COM) (Beijing, People’s Republic of China) December 28, 2005 – Lehman, Lee & Xu was recently featured among the top law firms in China by American Lawyer Magazine, which is one of the nation’s most well-respected magazines catering to the legal profession. Partners and associates at America’s largest law firms and in-house counsel at multinationals read the magazine on a regular basis in order to stay up-to-date on the latest legal news.

The article entitled, “The Bamboo Dynasty”, provides us with an insight into the life of the firm’s managing partner, Edward Lehman, who has lived in China for the past 18 years consecutively. Mr. Lehman, who came to China as a young associate at the US firm of Lord, Bissell & Brook, remained in China during the large-scale pull out of all major foreign law firms. In 1992, he then went on to establish Lehman, Lee & Xu, with several other Chinese partners. The firm has grown into one of China’s premier legal service providers, including a law firm, and patent and trademark agency.

Lehman was quoted as cautioning other foreigners not to lose sight of the emerging status of China. As a long-term resident, Lehman has seen China in its early stages of growth, and cautions realism when dealing in the Chinese market. Such experience has caused his peers to select him as one of China’s most well-respected legal advisors on intellectual property, foreign direct investment, financing, and other areas.
