🛡️ Prevent — Before You Pay

Verify, Protect, Prevent

For buyers who haven't wired money yet — or are about to sign a contract. These services stop disputes before they start.

Supplier Background Check

Before you wire money to a Chinese supplier, know who you're dealing with. Two tiers of legal verification — from a quick reality check to comprehensive due diligence.

🔍
Supplier Background Check
2 tiers · 48 hours to 5 days · Remote delivery
From
$99

Verify any Chinese supplier's legal registration, court history, asset tracing, and risk profile. Every report is prepared by a licensed PRC lawyer — not automated data scraping. The supplier never knows we checked.

Supplier Due Diligence

A background check tells you if a supplier is real. Due diligence tells you whether you should trust them with $100,000. Financial health, on-site factory verification, UBO tracing — for high-value transactions.

🔎
Supplier Due Diligence
3 tiers · 5 to 14 days · Includes on-site verification
From
$499

For orders above $50,000 or first-time supplier relationships. Financial health analysis, tax compliance, customs AEO status, on-site factory verification, ultimate beneficial owner tracing, and a comprehensive legal opinion with deal recommendation. Every tier includes everything in the corresponding Background Check tier.

4 tiers · From review to full manufacturing agreements · Bilingual
From
$299

From a quick contract review to a full-cycle manufacturing agreement with NNN clauses, mold ownership, and quality penalties. Drafted directly by a licensed PRC lawyer — the same lawyer who would enforce it in court if things go wrong.

⚖️ Recover — After a Dispute

Assess, Fight, Recover

For buyers who already have a problem — goods never shipped, defective products, deposit stolen. Apply legal pressure, assess your case, then take action inside China.

Legal Demand Letter from a PRC Lawyer

The cheapest way to apply real legal pressure. A formal letter on law firm letterhead, bilingual, sent via registered mail. About 60% of suppliers respond. No case assessment required.

📜
Legal Demand Letter
3 tiers · Template → Custom → Premium Package
From
$299

A properly drafted lawyer demand letter carries more weight than a hundred angry emails. We cite the specific Chinese laws your supplier violated, set a 14-day deadline, and deliver via registered mail with tracking. If they respond, you may never need to go to court.

Litigation & Arbitration

When negotiations fail, you need a lawyer who can actually file in Chinese courts and CIETAC arbitration. That's us. Base fee + contingency — we win when you win.

Litigation & Arbitration
3 tiers · Court · CIETAC · Enforcement · Base + Contingency
From
$3,000

Full court representation in Chinese civil courts, CIETAC arbitration, and post-judgment asset recovery. This is where competitors stop and we begin — they explicitly state "we're not your law firm." We are.

Standalone Add-On Services

Services that complement any product tier. Mix and match as needed.

What This Isn't

We believe in telling you what we don't do — it saves everyone time and builds trust.

We are not a sourcing agent

We don't find suppliers for you. We verify, protect, and recover. If you need sourcing, use Alibaba or a trading company — then come to us before you wire money.

We are not an inspection company

We don't do pre-shipment quality inspections. We can coordinate a factory visit, but QC inspections are a different business. We're lawyers.

We are not a translation service

We translate legal documents because they need to be legally precise. We don't translate marketing materials or manuals.

We are not your US/EU lawyer

We handle the China side. Your home-country lawyer handles your home-country law. We partner with them — we don't replace them.

Upgrade Credits — You Never Lose Money by Starting Small

Every tier you purchase credits toward higher tiers. Start with a $99 background check, upgrade to a $399 assessment later — you pay only the $300 difference.

All upgrade credits: Valid for 30 days — whether upgrading within the same product line or moving to a different service (e.g., Background Check → Dispute Assessment). You only pay the difference.

Pricing & Service Questions

How much does it cost to recover money from a Chinese supplier?
Our entry-level Supplier Background Check starts at $99. If you already have a dispute, a Quick Case Assessment is $399. Full litigation starts at $3,000 base fee plus 15-25% contingency on recovered amount. Every tier credits toward higher tiers, so you never lose money by starting small.
Do you offer contingency fee arrangements?
Yes. For litigation and arbitration cases, we use a base fee + contingency model. You pay a base fee to cover filing and legal work, plus a percentage of the recovered amount — but only if we win. This aligns our interests with yours.
What if I start with a $99 check and need to upgrade?
Every tier includes upgrade credits. If you purchase a $99 Background Check and later upgrade to a $399 assessment within 30 days, you pay only the $300 difference. All credits — same product or cross-product — are valid for 30 days.
Are these prices final, or are there hidden fees?
All prices are transparent and fixed for prevention services (Background Check, Due Diligence, Contract Review) and Dispute Assessment. For litigation, court fees and arbitration institution fees are separate from legal fees — these are government-mandated costs, not our fees. We provide a full cost breakdown before you commit.
How do I pay? Can I pay with credit card?
We accept PayPal (credit card, no account needed) and international wire transfer. For prevention services and dispute assessment, payment is due before work begins. For litigation, the base fee is due upon engagement and contingency is due upon recovery.
