Equity ratios · board control · deadlock · exit
The quality of a JV agreement determines whether you can exit if things go wrong — and JV disputes are among the most frequent and expensive cross-border matters we see.
We negotiate and draft JV contracts and articles of association covering equity ratios, board composition, reserved matters, deadlock resolution, tag-along / drag-along rights, and exit valuation formulas.
The decisive issues are almost never the day-one economics; they are the deadlock and exit mechanisms that determine your leverage in year five. We insist on including Russian roulette, Texas shootout, or put/call provisions at the drafting stage — not as an afterthought when the relationship has already soured.
We work in English and Chinese, on your timeline. Initial consultations are confidential and without obligation.
