He has in-depth expertise in IP management, risk mitigation, IP enforcement, cross-border dispute resolution and patent licensing for domestic and overseas enterprises. He has rich practical experience representing both plaintiffs and defendants in a wide range of IP contentious cases across China, Europe, the United States and other jurisdictions.

Prior to joining Lung Tin Law Firm, Mr. Liu served as Senior IP Counsel at Corning Incorporated.
