Guiding Businesses Through China’s Legal Landscape: Duke Yu

7. July 2025

Duke Yu is a senior partner at K-Insight law firm – Member of ECOVIS International with over 18 years of legal experience. After seven years of legal study, he has developed strong expertise in commercial law, with a focus on contract law, company law, and bankruptcy.

Duke advises clients across a wide spectrum of industries—including real estate, trade, manufacturing, e-commerce, and solar energy—bringing a practical, cross-sector perspective to complex legal issues. His work reflects a strong understanding of how law intersects with business realities.

Duke’s services span strategic legal consulting, in-depth due diligence, and the drafting of detailed legal advice. He also represents clients in litigation and arbitration, safeguarding their interests throughout every stage of the legal process.

“A lot of legal problems can be avoided with the right advice early on,” says Duke. “I always encourage clients to see legal counsel not as a last resort, but as a strategic advantage.”

One of the common pitfalls that Duke helps clients avoid is entering into high-stakes transactions without first seeking legal advice. His clear, forward-looking guidance helps businesses navigate risk and make confident decisions from the outset.

What sets Duke apart is not just his technical expertise, but his commitment to building long-term relationships. For him, the most rewarding part of his work is seeing his clients succeed – and knowing he’s played a part in that journey.
