Shanghai-headquartered Llinks Law Offices is a well-known, full-service law firm with notable strengths in disputes advisory, commercial disputes and international arbitration. The Shanghai disputes team is active and recognised in a wide range of commercial matters, such as banking, finance and investment.
Peiming Yang, Vincent Mu and Mark Zhang are key names in the firm, acting as lead partner on most cases in commercial disputes and international arbitrations.
Among its publishable matters, the firm advised Gyges Labs, an AI wearable technology company, on a patent infringement comparison analysis in a cross‑border IP dispute involving a U.S. Section 337 investigation. INGENIOSPEC, a U.S. electronic eyewear company, alleged that a domestic smart‑glasses manufacturer had infringed its patents, creating potential risks of U.S. market exclusion and damages.
By examining claim scope and technical feature alignment, the firm identified key differences in circuit design and functional modules, forming the basis of a Non‑Infringement Analysis Report. Working with U.S. counsel, the firm then developed negotiation strategies supported by this analysis, which contributed to a settlement between the parties.
Patrick Zheng left Llinks in February 2025 to join Kingland Partners.
