FisherBroyles, LLP, the world’s first and one of the largest distributed law firms, has added partner He Xian, Ph.D., to its Atlanta office, expanding the firm’s reach in commercial transactions, corporate governance, government affairs, immigration, international law, and litigation and risk management.
An alumnus of Michigan State University College of Law, Xian has advised U.S. and international clients on legal issues involving international business expansion, immigration and dispute resolution. He has served as chair of the China practice at one of Michigan’s largest law firms and as a partner at a major international firm, where he facilitated strategic partnerships between business and government entities in both China and the United States.
Xian has served as outside general counsel to a large state-owned enterprise operating in the U.S., supported major clean energy companies in U.S. workforce development and secured critical intracompany transfers for leading AI firms under the L-1A and L-1B visa programs. His litigation work has resulted in significant victories, including a $2 million judgment awarded to a group of foreign investments.
Xian earned his Juris Doctor and doctorate in information and media from Michigan State University, where he also taught and published research on social stratification, perception and policy. He holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Georgia and a certificate in Chinese legal systems from Peking University in Beijing.
His legal accomplishments have been featured in The New York Times, China Daily, China News Service and China Auto News.
