Rui Sun practices at Henan Gongpu Law Firm in Luohe, focusing on civil litigation for contract, property, and commercial disputes. Foreign parties facing Chinese courts need early decisions on jurisdiction, evidence form, translation, and whether interim measures are available to freeze assets or preserve evidence.

The Civil Procedure Law structures filing, service, evidence exchange, trial, appeal, and enforcement. Limitation periods vary by claim type; missing them can bar otherwise strong rights. Attorney Sun builds claim charts that map each cause of action to facts, evidence, and legal elements under the Civil Code and special statutes.

Service on foreign defendants and recognition of overseas evidence raise formal requirements. He plans authentication and translation schedules so hearing packages are complete. Electronic evidence from WeChat and email must be collected in ways that support authenticity arguments.

Interim property preservation can be decisive when counterparties may dissipate assets. Applications require security in many cases and careful targeting of bank accounts or real property. Enforcement of judgments against local assets is a separate phase that should be planned before filing when possible.

Mediation remains encouraged throughout Chinese civil process. He prepares settlement bands and walk-away points so commercial clients do not negotiate blindly. Where arbitration agreements exist, he evaluates stay or jurisdictional objections rather than defaulting into the wrong forum.

Foreign-related commercial disputes may involve choice-of-law clauses subject to Chinese conflict rules and public policy limits. He explains realistic timelines in first-instance and appeal stages and coordinates with overseas counsel when parallel proceedings exist abroad. Communication to headquarters is in clear English with decision options rather than guarantees of outcome.

Under the PRC Civil Code, contractual relationships are governed by rules on formation, validity, performance, assignment, termination, and liability for breach. Article 577 provides that a party that fails to perform, or performs inconsistently with the agreement, shall bear liability through continued performance, remedial measures, or damages. Force majeure and change of circumstances doctrines under Articles 180 and 533 may excuse non-performance or permit renegotiation when objective conditions make performance impossible or obviously unfair. Foreign parties should document notice, mitigation steps, and bilingual evidence trails carefully.

Civil procedure in China follows the Civil Procedure Law. Parties typically attempt negotiation or mediation first. Jurisdiction may lie where the defendant is domiciled or where the contract was performed, subject to exclusive jurisdiction rules for certain real estate and company disputes. Evidence rules emphasize documentary originals, electronic data authenticity, and timely submission. Foreign-related cases may involve judicial assistance channels and translation of evidence into Chinese. Arbitration clauses selecting CIETAC, BAC, or other institutions remain common for cross-border commercial contracts.

Compliance planning for foreign individuals and foreign-invested enterprises should address corporate registration, tax filings, foreign exchange settlement, employment contracts, personal information protection, and industry licensing. When disputes emerge, preserving WeChat chats, email threads, stamped contracts, and payment records often determines outcomes more than oral recollection alone.
