What an incredible journey it has been! From a bold startup of 17 passionate team members, we have grown into a thriving legal powerhouse of over 70 members across our three offices in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Beijing. This milestone fills us with immense pride and gratitude.

Over the past year alone, we’ve earned top honors as IP Firm of the Year and GBA Firm of the Year, while pushing the boundaries beyond intellectual property to become a full-practice law firm with growing capabilities in Dispute Resolution, Corporate, Commercial & TMT, Family Office, and Private Client services.

Founding ELLALAN was an entrepreneurial leap inspired by a singular vision: to build a top IP hub in Asia that blends legal excellence with a client-first heartbeat, and to nurture the next generation of IP talent. Today it’s clear that vision is alive and thriving.

This success would be impossible without our phenomenal team—past and present—whose dedication, creativity, and resilience drive everything we do.

To every colleague who has contributed to our growth, know this achievement carries your fingerprints.

And to our valued clients, thank you for trusting us with your most precious brands, designs, and innovations. Your belief fuels our ongoing quest for excellence.

Our journey is far from over. This anniversary marks a new benchmark as we continue to innovate, expand, and excel with the same entrepreneurial spirit that brought us here.

Here’s to many more milestones to come. Join us as we look forward to shaping the future of legal excellence in Asia and beyond.
