Cheng & Peng Intellectual Property Law Office was founded in May 2013 in Beijing, China, as a boutique intellectual property (IP) law firm. Our goal is to become a world-class firm.

We provide a full range of IP legal services, including prosecution, opposition, invalidation, litigation, and licensing of patents and trademarks. Additionally, we offer freedom-to-operate (FTO) analyses, due diligence, patent valuation, and IP management consulting. Our team has expertise across a wide range of technical fields, including mechanical engineering, electronics, chemistry, and biotechnology. We work in Chinese, English, Japanese, and German languages.

Our firm currently has around 30 employees, including 12 patent attorneys, 4 trademark agents, and 7 professionals with legal qualifications.

We have extensive experience in cross-border IP protection, with particular expertise in patent drafting and global portfolio management, IP due diligence in cross-border investment and M&A transactions, cross-border licensing and technology transfer, global patent monitoring and dispute resolution, and strategic IP consulting.

Cheng & Peng is recognized as one of China’s most elite IP law firms. Our patent attorneys are graduates of top-tier universities, with nearly 80% having earned their degrees from Tsinghua University or Peking University. All our patent attorneys are fluent in both English and Chinese and can draft patent applications in either language. Nearly 70% of our PCT international applications are drafted and prosecuted in English. In the fields of life sciences and healthcare—our core strengths—we maintain a globally competitive edge.

Another hallmark of our firm is the depth of our team’s experience, especially in handling complex international cases. Our professionals have an average of 18 years of experience, with nearly 80% of our attorneys having over 15 years in the field. Some of our team members are former senior examiners from the Chinese patent office, bringing extensive expertise in patent examination, reexamination, invalidation, litigation, search, and complex case resolution.

Since our inception, we have positioned ourselves as a high-end IP service provider. Over the past decade, we have achieved remarkable success, rapidly rising to the top of China’s boutique IP firms. We have earned widespread recognition from clients and peers worldwide, consistently winning international accolades, including multiple awards for “Best Patent Litigation Firm”, “Best IP Enforcement Firm”, “Best Patent Prosecution Firm”, and “Best IP Asset Management Firm” in Mainland China.

Our Beijing office is located in Oriental Plaza in Dongcheng District, at the heart of the Wangfujing commercial area. Overlooking Chang An Avenue and adjacent to the Ministry of Commerce, we are situated in a prime business hub with excellent accessibility.
