CPA provides comprehensive IP services to clients in China and abroad, with particular expertise in application prosecution, litigation, mediation, licensing, assignment, and counseling relating to various areas of IP including patent, trademark, copyright, domain name, and anti-unfair competition. CPA also prosecutes patent, trademark and design applications for clients in the Hong Kong SAR. Apart from its Hong Kong-based main office, the firm also has offices in Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, New York, Tokyo and Munich.

It now has 550 staff members, including 230 patent attorneys, 34 trademark attorneys, and 85 attorneys-at-law.
