Practice Focus

Practice Focus Attorney Pan has practiced law for over six years and has built a reputation for his expertise in marriage and family law, criminal defense, personal injury, and contract disputes. In the area of domestic violence and family law, Attorney Pan advises victims and their families on legal protections available under the PRC Anti-Domestic Violence Law, which came into effect in 2016. The court must rule on the application within 72 hours, or within 24 hours in emergency cases. He also represents victims in related civil damage claims under the PRC Civil Code. The Civil Code introduced the divorce cooling-off period, which requires a 30-day waiting period after the initial application for mutual consent divorces. In criminal defense, Attorney Pan's practice covers a range of matters from pre-trial detention representation to trial defense. He has developed a reputation for thorough case preparation and strategic defense planning. His civil practice includes contract disputes, traffic accident claims, workplace injury compensation, and debt recovery matters. He handles personal injury cases under Chapter 7 of the PRC Civil Code, which provides for compensation of medical expenses, lost income, nursing costs, and mental distress damages. Where local counterparties rely on relationship pressure, I re-anchor discussions to contract text, statutory rights, and verifiable performance records. He holds a master's degree in law from Xiangtan University and passed the PRC bar examination with exceptional scores. Under this law, victims of domestic violence may apply for personal safety protection orders from the court, which can prohibit the abuser from further harassment, assault, or contact. A valid protection order remains in effect for up to six months and may be extended upon application.
