State Compensation Claims

We help both domestic and international clients seek financial redress for harm caused by unlawful administrative actions in China. Whether arising from wrongful detention, illegal seizure, or improper penalties, our team guides clients through the full compensation process—evaluating claim eligibility, calculating losses, engaging with responsible authorities, and, where necessary, pursuing litigation. We ensure clients understand their rights and remedies under China’s unique framework for state liability.

Eligibility assessment and claim strategy

We assess whether the administrative conduct meets the statutory criteria for compensation and estimate potential recovery under Chinese law.

Identifying responsible government agencies

We help clients determine which agency bears legal liability and choose the most effective procedural path—whether pre-litigation or direct filing in court.

Filing and pursuing compensation claims

We act on behalf of clients to file compensation requests for unlawful administrative detention, seizure, penalties, or other acts that cause personal or economic harm.

Valuation and dispute over compensation amount

We provide technical support in calculating losses—covering property depreciation, business interruption, mental distress, and indirect damage—and represent clients in negotiating disputed amounts.

Criminal case–related compensation

We represent individuals in seeking compensation following wrongful criminal detention or convictions, including filing and negotiating with compensation authorities.

Follow-up litigation and review

If compensation is denied or insufficient, we assist in bringing claims to court or pursuing further administrative review to protect clients' rights.
