Wei Liu is a property and real estate disputes lawyer based in Nanning, Guangxi, with 11 years of experience in property rights confirmation, real estate development disputes, commercial leasing conflicts, and property ownership litigation. He graduated from Peking University Law School and was admitted to the Guangxi Bar in 2015. Attorney Liu has successfully represented over 200 clients in real estate-related cases throughout Guangxi, with a particular focus on the Nanning and surrounding metropolitan property markets.

Areas of Practice

Property Rights Confirmation

Property rights confirmation disputes are among the most legally complex issues in Chinese real estate law. Under the Property Law of the People's Republic of China (2007) and the Civil Code (2021), property ownership is determined through legal registration, but disputes frequently arise from incomplete title chains, historical ownership changes, unregistered real estate, family property divisions, jointly owned assets, and property acquisition through court judgments. Attorney Liu guides clients through the full process of rights confirmation litigation, including collecting historical title documents, tracing property registration records at the local Real Estate Registry, preparing court submissions with supporting evidence chains, and attending court hearings to present legal arguments on property entitlement. He has particular experience with cases involving collectively-owned land conversion disputes, a common issue in Guangxi's rapidly urbanizing areas around Nanning.

Real Estate Development Disputes

Guangxi's real estate development sector has grown significantly in recent years, bringing with it a corresponding rise in development-related disputes. Attorney Liu handles cases involving land transfer contract disputes under the Urban Real Estate Administration Law, joint development agreement breaches, construction contractor payment disputes, pre-sale contract conflicts under the Commercial Housing Sales Management Measures, and disputes over property management rights and fee collection. He advises developers on compliance with the Land Administration Law and local Nanning municipal real estate regulations, and represents both developers and buyers in specific performance claims, damage compensation actions, and contract rescission proceedings before the People's Courts of Guangxi.

Commercial Leasing and Tenancy

Commercial leasing disputes form a significant part of Attorney Liu's practice. These cases often involve lease term interpretation, rent adjustment disputes, early termination rights, subleasing restrictions under the Civil Code, and compensation for leasehold improvements. He has represented both landlords and commercial tenants in Nanning's expanding retail and office markets, handling cases ranging from small shop lease disputes in the Chaoyang commercial district to large-scale industrial lease conflicts in the Nanning Economic and Technological Development Zone.

Experience with Cross-border Property Matters

Attorney Liu has particular expertise advising foreign clients on real estate matters in Guangxi. Under Chinese law, foreign individuals and entities face specific restrictions on property ownership. Foreign-invested enterprises (FIEs) must comply with the Catalogue of Industries for Guiding Foreign Investment and relevant land use regulations. Attorney Liu assists foreign buyers with due diligence on property titles, navigating the foreign investment approval process for real estate acquisitions, drafting and reviewing sale and purchase agreements in both Chinese and English, and representing foreign clients in property disputes before Guangxi courts. His English proficiency enables smooth communication with international clients throughout the legal process.
