01 Criminal Practice: Valuing Evidence and Full-Process Case Assessment. The effective handling of criminal cases depends not only on the accurate application of legal provisions but also on establishing a complete judgment centered on case facts, evidentiary structure, and case-handling procedures. Lawyer Hua has practical experience in handling criminal cases and is familiar with evidence organization, legal documents, trial preparation, and case advancement. He can identify key issues around case facts and the evidence system and, in light of the client's business background and specific business scenarios, formulate targeted criminal defense, criminal accusation, and risk disposal plans for clients.
02 Dual VC and FA Experience: Understanding Investment Decisions and Financing Transaction Logic. Years of practice in primary-market equity investment and startup project financing are an important advantage distinguishing Lawyer Hua from a traditional single legal practice background. From early-stage project screening, industry research, and business model assessment to financing plan design, connecting with investment institutions, business negotiations, and transaction closing, Lawyer Hua has long participated in the entire corporate financing process and has direct practical understanding of the capital needs, equity arrangements, and transaction dynamics faced by startup enterprises at different stages of development. This experience also enables him, when handling equity investment, financing transactions, commercial disputes, and corporate legal counsel matters, to assess issues not only from the legal relationship itself but also with a full understanding of the commercial interests and decision-making logic that truly concern all parties to a transaction.
03 Composite Perspective: Connecting Criminal Risk, Commercial Disputes, and Business Operations. In the course of corporate development, criminal risk, commercial disputes, and business decisions are often not independent of one another. Especially in emerging fields such as technological innovation, the digital economy, and Web3, a single business may simultaneously involve transaction arrangements, capital flows, counterparty liability, and potential criminal risk. Starting from a single legal department alone often makes it difficult to fully understand the issues. Lawyer Hua focuses on combining criminal law expertise with commercial and investment-financing experience to assess issues from multiple dimensions, including transaction structure, business operations, risk liability, and dispute resolution, providing enterprises and entrepreneurs with legal support that is closer to real commercial scenarios.
