Ellie joined HLK in 2006. She has a broad background in Intellectual Property Law, British Law, Chinese Law and Business & Finance, and is a qualified Chinese Lawyer.
As HLK’s China Chief Representative, she advises on European IP and Chinese IP to our clients in a wide range of industrial sectors. Working closely with our European attorneys, Ellie is a liaison and information resource within China for our clients across the globe. She accompanies our attorneys during their visits to China and briefs them on Chinese culture and business etiquette. Ellie is also responsible for client and business relationship development and for building our profile in China.
Ellie has served many Chinese clients who enter into the European market, so she is well aware of the needs and requirements of Chinese clients and their way of doing business. She is responsible for China and UK IP research and thus ensuring both clients and colleagues are well informed of the relevant IP issues, as well as key developments in Chinese regulation and business affairs.
Ellie is often invited by Chinese local organisations, associations and clients to give seminars on European IP relative issues. She served as one of the first experts in the International Intellectual Property Expert Database of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area.
Ellie who previously worked for the firm in the UK is now based in Guangzhou, and she speaks fluent Cantonese, Mandarin and English.
