In recent years, Tianhe has been focusing on developing the headquarters economy of the modern legal service industry and building a gathering ground for legal service brands in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

In the future, Yingke will strive to fulfil its social responsibilities, devote itself to public welfare, expand its legal services and contribute to the Belt and Road Initiative and the construction of the Greater Bay Area, said Zheng Qian, deputy director of the Tianhe district justice bureau, at the launching ceremony for Yingke's South China headquarters.
