Profile
A Shenzhen dispute-resolution lawyer for complex, high-value and cross-border matters.
Huang Xiaoqi is a litigation and arbitration lawyer at Beijing Dacheng (Shenzhen) Law Firm, the Shenzhen office of Dacheng — one of China's largest law firms. She is a core member of the finance and real-estate dispute-resolution team led by senior partner Li Qi, and works within the firm's Financial Institutions practice group.
Her work centres on the disputes that decide whether capital is recovered or lost: banking and finance litigation, major commercial arbitration, foreign-related and cross-border financing matters, real estate and construction conflicts, and wealth-succession disputes. She has acted on the team for matters worth several billion yuan, before forums ranging from the Shenzhen Court of International Arbitration to the Supreme People's Court.
Clients value a methodical advocate who reconstructs the facts in full, builds the legal theory that withstands re-examination, and stays relentless through multi-year, multi-forum battles. Speaking on the firm's masterclass for major and complex cases, she distilled her approach to a single principle: deep factual excavation, precise and complete legal analysis, and disciplined teamwork are the anchor for winning the hardest cases.

Selected matters on which Huang Xiaoqi acted as a named member of the deal team. Figures and outcomes are as reported in the firm's official case publications.
Cross-border finance · Appeal won
¥2B+
in dispute
Foreign-related financial loan contract dispute — won on appeal
A trust institution had financed a major developer through an innovative asset-income-rights transfer-and-repurchase structure. After default, the dispute spanned offshore parties, out-of-province collateral, hundreds of related actions and a winding-up petition. A 'domestic first, foreign second' filing strategy preserved nearly a thousand properties within 27 days, and a Beijing–Shenzhen–Chongqing team coordinated across regions.
Won on appeal within six months of the hearing; the client's claims were fully supported at both instances, recovering a substantial loss.
Construction arbitration · Award won
¥1.6B
in dispute
Major construction arbitration at the Shenzhen Court of International Arbitration
A three-year, multi-party construction dispute spanning bankruptcy reorganisation, third-party set-aside, enforcement objections and arbitration-agreement validity. The team filed fourteen volumes — some ten thousand pages of evidence — and argued twenty-four contested issues, including price settlement, delay and quality, work-stoppage claims and construction-payment priority.
Preliminary and final awards totalling 400+ pages and 200,000+ characters systematically supported the client's claims, recovering a major loss and protecting state-owned assets.
Banking · Supreme People's Court retrial
SPC
retrial reversal
Bank cleared of charging disguised 'fee-in-advance' interest
A provincial high court had found that a bank collected disguised interest deducted in advance ('砍头息') through a debt-assignment arrangement and reduced the principal. On retrial taken up by the Supreme People's Court, the team pierced the form of the transaction to its true commercial substance, showing the assignment was a legitimately bargained price for a rate concession — not hidden interest.
The Supreme People's Court reversed in the bank's favour, saving tens of millions of yuan, averting regulatory risk, and setting a benchmark reference on how such arrangements are characterised.
Trust enforcement · Settlement
¥1B+
enforced
Compulsory-execution notarial deed — enforcement settlement
Enforcement of a financial-loan notarial deed exceeding one billion yuan against a heavily indebted debtor that obstructed enforcement, where collateral rent could not be frozen and comparable cases had been dismissed for unclear payment terms. The team broke through each obstacle.
Recovered tens of millions in mortgage rent in full, secured several hundred million through an asset-for-debt settlement with the balance rescheduled — named the firm's Best Enforcement Case of 2024.
Succession · Reversed on appeal
Equity
succession secured
Inheritance dispute — printed-will defect overcome, equity retained
A first-instance court had voided a 2014 printed will over a formality defect and ordered shareholding-company equity and years of dividends redistributed by statutory succession. On appeal the team reframed the case: the equity had effectively been gifted during the testators' lifetime, and a family agreement constituted a binding, independent division of property.
The Shenzhen Intermediate Court reversed the judgment and dismissed all opposing claims; the client retained the village shareholding-company equity and avoided returning large dividend sums.
Each matter was handled by a team; roles and results are described accordingly. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
