9 ASIAN LEGAL BUSINESS CHINA • 亚洲法律杂志-中国版 WWW.LEGALBUSINESSONLINE.COM/CHINA COVER STORY However, Wang acknowledges significant developmental disparities among the western provinces and autonomous regions. Recent statistics reveal stark contrasts: Shaanxi boasts 923 firms, while Ningxia has 137, and Tibet only 79. Moreover, the overall number of firms in the west remains considerably lower than in central and eastern China. Nevertheless, he still senses opportunities. “With economic recovery and the continuous development of the western region, and considering that the western region has lagged behind during development in earlier days, the regional legal services industry still has a large market space and development potential.” He also says that the constant strengthening of the legal awareness and literacy of the general public and companies has brought about more legal advisory and service needs. Wang Yiren, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Baijus Law Firm and Director of its Chengdu office, says that although the development of the legal services industry in the western region has generally been slow, since last year she has felt significant improvement in the industry ecosystem which can mainly be attributed to efforts to progress the protection, opening-up and high-quality development of the western region as well as the pivotal role the region already plays in the overall picture of national reform, development and stability. “Multiple national economic strategies have been implemented in the west, such as the construction of the new western land-sea channel, high-quality joint development of the ‘Belt and Road Initiative’, construction of inland highlands and hubs for opening-up and development such as Chongqing, Sichuan and Shaanxi, construction of various industrial parks, border economic cooperation zones and cross-border economic cooperation zones in border areas, and the high-quality development of pilot free trade zones. All these strategies have created a broad legal services market for lawyers in the west,” says Wang Yiren. “The major measures taken by the western region to build a business environment based on rule of law have not only generated powerful impetus for Local Firms 西部地区本地律所 Chihkao Law Firm 四川致高律师事务所 Chongqing Baijus Law Firm 重庆百君律师事务所 Chongqing Jingsheng Law Firm 重庆静昇律师事务所 Help Reaching Law Firm 陕西海普睿诚律师事务所 K&H Law Firm 重庆坤源衡泰律师事务所 Ning Ren Law Firm 宁人律师事务所 Qinghai Shuren Law Firm 青海树人律师事务所 Shaanxi Jiaxuan Law Firm 陕西稼轩律师事务所 Sichuan Henghexin Law Firm 四川恒和信律师事务所 Sichuan Mingju Law Firm 四川明炬律师事务所 Sichuan SUN&CO.
