On June 10, Benchmark Litigation announced its inaugural bilingual China Ranking Guide. On the Shanghai Regional Ranking, Watson & Band again took the lead in Tier 2.

Meanwhile, Watson & Band's Partner, Yizhou Liu, was honored a “Litigation Star” on the said regional ranking.

After being listed in 2021 Benchmark Litigation Asia-Pacific Ranking Guide in May, Watson & Band's strengths and its pursuit for perfection in the IP services area were again recognized by the Shanghai Regional Ranking this month.

Benchmark Litigation China is an in-depth, bilingual guide that focuses on the Chinese regional disputes market across different cities and provinces.
