In recent years, China has actively promoted the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and encouraged Chinese enterprises to "go global" and participate in international market competition. This strategy has not only promoted the continuous increase of China's outward direct investment, but also greatly increased the demand for foreign-related legal services, and the demand for foreign-related legal services has shown a vigorous growth trend.
In response to this demand, the Ministry of Justice and other departments have successively introduced a series of policies and measures aimed at strengthening the development of the foreign-related legal service industry. According to the Notice of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council on the Opinions on the Development of Foreign-related Legal Service Industries, lawyers can provide legal services in the process of Chinese enterprises "going global", including but not limited to: legal environment consultation, due diligence and risk assessment, intellectual property protection, compliance management, and dispute resolution, etc., and lawyers have ushered in a broad space for development in the field of foreign-related legal services. Data analysis shows that industries such as mining, manufacturing, and scientific research and technical services have become popular areas for foreign-related legal services. These industries not only have huge investment scales, but also face complex and changeable legal issues, providing a wealth of business opportunities and service scenarios for foreign-related lawyers.
According to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Justice, by the end of 2022, the total number of practicing lawyers in the country has exceeded 651,600. Among them, only 1.8% of the foreign-related lawyers specializing in foreign-related business account for more than 12,000 people, highlighting the urgent need to strengthen the foreign-related legal team. In order to effectively respond to market demand and improve service quality, lawyers are actively seeking efficient and intelligent legal tools to support. Among them, the Alpha legal intelligence operating system has become the first choice of many lawyers with its powerful legal database, rich work and learning resources and user-friendly functional design. The Alpha system not only includes hundreds of millions of cases and millions of regulations, but also updates "foreign regulations" and "international treaties" in real time, helping foreign-related lawyers obtain the most comprehensive and accurate search results.
First of all, the Alpha system includes hundreds of millions of cases and millions of regulations, which are updated in real time, and also collects "foreign regulations" and "international treaties" to help foreign-related lawyers obtain the most comprehensive and accurate search results. At the same time, the Alpha system can generate a search report with one click, which significantly improves the professional image of lawyers and customer trust.
