河南商事争议解决服务的发展态势

The Development Trend of Commercial Dispute Resolution Services in Henan Province, PRC

 

受疫情影响，2022年河南地区经济发展经历严峻考验，但总体呈现代化发展特征，经济下行压力带来商事争议解决服务需求的增长，与此同时现代化发展要求规范化、高质量的商事诉讼服务及司法环境，在此背景下，本地商事争议解决服务市场不断自我革新，逐步迈入“专业、主动、开放”的发展新阶段。

The economic development of Henan Province, PRC, affected by the epidemic, underwent a severe test in 2022, but the overall trend showed modernization characteristics. The downward pressure on the economy brought about an increase in the demand for commercial dispute resolution services while standardized and high quality commercial litigation services and judicial environment were required for such modernization. Under this background, the local commercial dispute resolution service market continued to innovate itself, and gradually entered a new stage of ‘professional, active and open’ development.

 

业务类型拓宽，服务质量提高

商事争议解决服务是经济发展的基础设施，需满足经济发展的要求。虽面临经济下行压力，河南省持续优化营商环境，转型升级传统产业，培育壮大新兴产业，谋篇布局未来产业，创新金融助力实体经济发展方式，引导本地企业发展先进产业，引入比亚迪、华为等外部优秀企业投资建厂，发展生物医药新材料、数字科技、新能源等先进行业。在此背景下，本地商事律师快速学习新市场主体、新行业带来的商事争议解决服务新业务，例如快速响应新能源行业的发展带来的新能源EPC合同纠纷、风电设备供应纠纷等类型业务的处理需求，形成该类型业务的标准办理流程，同时逐步增强为新市场主体提供规范化、专业化法律服务的能力，提高服务质量，满足河南省现代化发展的基础设施要求。

More Service Types with Better Quality

Commercial dispute resolution services, as the infrastructure of economic development, should meet its requirements. Henan Province, facing economic downward pressure, continued to optimize the business environment, transform and upgrade traditional industries, cultivate and expand emerging industries, plan for future industries, innovate finance to help the development of the real economy, guide local enterprises to develop advanced industries, and invited excellent enterprises such as BYD, Huawei, etc. to invest and build factories, developing advanced industries such as biomedical new materials, digital technology, and new energy. In this context, local commercial lawyers quickly learned new types of commercial dispute resolution services brought by new market entities and new industries, such as forming a standard handling process of new energy EPC contract disputes and wind power equipment supply disputes brought about by the development of the new energy industry, gradually enhanced the ability to provide standardized and professional legal services for new market entities and improved service quality to meet the infrastructure requirements of modern development in Henan Province.

 

主动参与商业风险化解

2022年河南省受疫情和政策调控影响，在地产、金融等部分领域面临下行压力甚至产生突发状况，商事律师需在快速变化的形势中把握主要矛盾，结合诉讼经验预示商业风险，主动对接市场主体了解商事争议解决服务需求，整合“诉讼、仲裁、执行、破产”专业资源形成综合应对方案，有效化解商业风险及社会风险。未来商事律师需重视企业在合规管理、风险控制方面的需求，一同构建河南省市场主体合规经营环境和氛围，创建更大的商事争议解决服务市场。

Active Participation in Business Risk Mitigation

Henan Province, affected by the epidemic and policy regulation, faced downward pressure and even emergencies in some industries such as real estate and finance in 2022. Commercial lawyers need to grasp the main contradictions in the rapidly changing situation, predict commercial risks according to their litigation experience, actively communicate with market entities to understand their needs of commercial dispute resolution services, and form a comprehensive response plan through integration of professional resources in litigation, arbitration, enforcement, and bankruptcy, to effectively mitigate commercial and social risks. In the future, commercial lawyers need to pay attention to the needs of enterprises in terms of compliance management and risk control, and jointly build a compliance operating environment and atmosphere for market entities in Henan Province and create a larger commercial dispute resolution service market.

 

满足本地需求的同时承接外部需求

近年来，河南商事律师探索多样化发展道路，本地所与全国所本地办公室有序良性竞争，郑州地区发挥带头作用，带动其他地区均衡发展，商事律师相互学习，强调专业领域细分、专业能力提升，与司法机关合力构建良好司法环境，已初步实现本地商事争议解决服务需求本地解决。

满足本地需求的同时，依托成立于2016年的最高人民法院第四巡回法庭，河南商事律师加强了复杂再审案件代理工作的探究，形成了国内领先的再审案件代理工作流程，具备承接部分山西、湖北、安徽高端商事诉讼服务需求的能力。此外，河南省积极建设跨境电商“网上丝路”、中欧班列“钢铁驼队”、郑州-卢森堡“空中丝路”、内河航运“海上丝路”，主动融入“一带一路”建设，再加上传统铁路交通的优势，河南省内关于国内、国际跨区域经济活动日渐丰富，商事律师不断加强提供跨区域协同法律服务的能力，律师办案水平、律所组织水平、律协管理水平、行政机关服务水平、司法机关审判水平进一步接轨北上深一线城市，能够为外来市场主体提供国内一线商事争议解决法律服务。

河南省作为中原人口、农业、交通、金融大省，正处在改革开放全面发力时期，综合实力不断提升，仍有大幅发展的空间和动力，相信商事争议解决服务市场将继续有质有量持续增长，只要我们稳扎稳打、修炼内功，就一定能够把握市场发展的新机遇，与市场共同进步，分享市场发展的红利。

Meeting Local Demands and Undertaking External Demands

Commercial lawyers in Henan Province have explored diversified development pathsin recent years with orderly and healthy competition among local law firms and local branches of national law firms. The Zhengzhou region played a leading role in driving the balanced development of other regions. Commercial lawyers in Henan Province have initially realized the local settlement of local commercial dispute resolution through learning from each other, emphasizing the subdivision of professional fields and the improvement of professional capabilities, working together with the judiciary to build a good judicial environment.

Commercial lawyers in Henan Province, while meeting local needs, relying on the Fourth Circuit Court of the Supreme People's Court established in 2016, have strengthened the exploration of representation in complex retrial cases, formed a domestic leading retrial case representation workflow, and obtained the ability to undertake high-end commercial litigation cases in Shanxi, Hubei and Anhui provinces. In addition, commercial lawyers in Henan Province, continuously strengthen their ability to provide cross-regional collaborative legal services, could provide external market entities with first-tier commercial dispute resolution legal services with their service level, law firm management level, lawyers association administration level, government administration level and judicial trial level in line with first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen when there are more and more domestic and international cross-regional economic activities in Henan Province such as the ‘Online Silk Road’ for cross-border e-commerce, the ‘Steel Camel Caravan’ for China-Europe Railway Express, the Zhengzhou-Luxembourg ‘Aerial Silk Road’, the ‘Maritime Silk Road’ for inland waterway shipping, the active integration into the ‘Belt and Road’ construction as well as the traditional railway transportation.

Henan Province, as a main province with leading population, agriculture, transportation, and finance in the Central Plains, is in a period of comprehensive efforts in reform and opening. Its comprehensive strength has been continuously improved, and there is still room and momentum for substantial development. We believe that the commercial dispute resolution service market in Henan Province will sustain its growth in quality and quantity and we will surely grasp the new opportunities of such growth, make progress together with the market, and share the dividends thereof if we proceed steadily and cultivate our skills.
