James’ most recent notable experiences include assisting PRC technology giant, Alibaba, in handling their portfolio of offshore trademark contentious proceedings (including over 200 cases in over 40 different jurisdictions), and prestigious luxury brand Louis Vuitton in handling a copyright infringement and passing-off case against Belle International in relation to its popular Archlight sneakers (HCA 776/2019).
