Michael Chen specializes in international trade and investment, and his association with the Antidumping Defense Group gives the group a strong foundation in China. Mr. Chen is licensed to practice law both in China and the United States, and has a broad background in both legal cultures. 

He was the founding dean of Department of Law at Nanjing Agricultural University.  He has practiced Chinese law in the fields of corporations, commercial transactions, litigation, and international trade since 1996, and began practicing in the United States in 2000. 

Mr. Chen has published legal English training materials on thirty international trade topics for Chinese lawyers and judges, and has presented numerous seminars on Chinese trade and investment.  He is a resident of Beijing, and provides our clients with local, hands-on representation in antidumping cases.  His presence in many cases can reduce the necessity of long-distance visits by the US resident members of the firm.  His strong understanding of corporate structure and finance helps companies identify and collect the information needed to succeed in an antidumping investigation.  He is fluent in English and Mandarin.
