Aquila Law Firm was founded in 2020.
In 2020, Aquila obtained both a patent agency license and a legal practice license, becoming one of the few intellectual property law firms in the industry with a “dual-license” qualification. This qualification advantage enables Aquila to integrate attorneys and patent agents in a collaborative manner, connecting the full chain of filing, rights confirmation, litigation, and IP operations, and providing clients with a truly one-stop service.
In 2025, Aquila established well-developed cooperative mechanisms with dozens of renowned patent firms worldwide. Its client base spans more than 20 countries and regions, including China, the United States, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Finland, and Israel. This global collaboration network enables Aquila to directly provide IP services to Chinese enterprises entering Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and other jurisdictions, while also providing precise support for overseas clients enforcing their rights in China. Its cross-border service capabilities continue to lead among peer law firms.
In 2025, Aquila’s Chongqing office relocated to the 20th Floor of the office tower at Metropolitan Oriental Plaza in Jiefangbei. This marked a comprehensive upgrade of the firm’s brand image, service capacity, and international positioning. Located in a core business landmark of Chongqing, the new office not only improves the environment for client reception and team collaboration, but also further demonstrates Aquila’s strength and commitment to being rooted in Chongqing, serving the world, and continuing to deepen its cross-border intellectual property practice.
In May 2026, Aquila was selected for the Chongqing List of Foreign-Related Law Firms, an authoritative municipal list for foreign-related legal services. The selection is jointly coordinated by multiple municipal departments and comprehensively assesses core capabilities such as foreign-related compliance services, cross-border dispute resolution, overseas intellectual property risk response, and cross-border investment and financing legal services. The selection standards are rigorous and highly recognized in the industry. Aquila’s inclusion constitutes full municipal-level recognition of its professional legal capabilities, practical expertise, and service quality.
