These questions are seldom answered by looking at a single statute
Jing Yao Attorneys-at-law handles civil, real estate and construction, labor, criminal, family, and corporate matters, and reviews and drafts Chinese and English contracts
We first understand what happened, where things stand, and what you want done, then judge from the materials and the legal relationships what can come next
Civil · real estate and construction
If a house, land, project, or contract goes wrong, do not rush to sue
Unpaid debts, defects after a sale, lease disputes, or unpaid construction fees: before you start a case, confirm what the contract says, what actually happened, and what the evidence can prove
Labor disputes
If the company says you must leave, is that lawful? If an employee makes a demand, how should the company respond?
Dismissal, severance, overtime pay, or labor mediation often arrive suddenly. Clarify the employment contract, actual work, and the record both sides have, then decide the next step
Criminal matters
If you receive a police or prosecutor notice, first know which stage you are in
A call from the police, a written notice, or learning you have been accused: most people first want to know what happens next. Clarify the procedure, your status, and the papers you have
Family matters
Some things can be separated, but children, property, and life afterwards still need to be arranged
Divorce is only the starting point. Care of children, support, marital property, and succession all need the legal position and the practical arrangements thought through together
Corporate counsel
For many company legal issues, the better time to act is before you sign or decide
Deal terms, employee issues, legal papers from the other side, or a major commercial decision: clarify legal risk and possible responses before you sign or decide
Chinese and English contracts
Understanding every word is not the same as knowing what the contract means for you
What usually matters is payment, termination, default, and who bears the loss. Understand those clauses before you sign, so you know what you have agreed and what is still worth negotiating
SUCCESS CASES
Case results
Behind every outcome is an effort to understand the problem and judge it

PROCESS
Consultation and engagement
You do not need every question organized before you first speak with a lawyer
If you are unsure where the problem is, what documents you need, or what to do next, start by contacting us
We will first understand what happened and where things stand, then arrange a consultation so you know the options that follow
Initial overview
Briefly describe what happened and the issue you now face on LINE. If you have a contract, notice, chat records, or other materials, you may send them as well
We will first understand the outline of the matter and confirm whether a further consultation is needed
Lawyer consultation
In consultation, the lawyer will review the facts and materials, explain possible legal issues, options, and risks
If there is more than one way forward, we will explain them so you can decide what to do next
Engagement
If you need further help after consultation, we will explain the scope of work, fees, and next steps
Once engaged, the lawyer continues with negotiation, mediation, litigation, or other procedures as needed
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
If this is your first time seeking legal help, you may have questions about consultation, fees, or engagement. These are the issues people most often ask before they contact us
What should I prepare for the first contact?
You do not need every document in order, and you do not need to decide which legal issue it is
Start with what happened, where things stand, and what you most want resolved. If you have a contract, a certified letter, a court or police notice, chat records, or payment proof, you may send those too
If more materials are needed later, we will ask based on the matter
Can I ask even if I am not sure I need a lawyer?
Yes
Many legal issues are hard to judge at the start. Tell us the situation; we will first understand the outline. If a fuller legal analysis is needed, we will explain whether a formal consultation is advisable
Some matters need prompt action; others do not need to go to court immediately. That still depends on the facts
If I contact you on LINE, must I engage the firm?
No
LINE is mainly so we can understand your needs and the outline of the matter, and confirm whether a consultation should be arranged
Even after consultation, engagement is optional. You can decide after you understand the situation, possible approaches, and fees
Can a full legal consultation happen on LINE?
LINE is mainly for first contact, outlining the matter, and arranging a consultation. It is not always suitable for a complete legal analysis
Legal issues usually require the full facts, documents, and current procedure. If further analysis is needed, we will arrange a formal consultation rather than give an incomplete view with incomplete information
Can consultation be online?
Yes
Depending on the matter, we can arrange in-person or online consultation. If you are outside Taipei or New Taipei, or cannot visit the office, ask about an online session
If many documents need review, or if an in-person meeting is more suitable, we will say so in advance
How are consultation fees calculated?
Fees depend on time, the nature of the matter, and what you need
Before a consultation is booked, we will explain the format, time, and fee. We will not charge extra consultation fees without prior notice
If you later engage the firm, the scope and fees of that engagement will be explained separately
If I want to engage a lawyer after consultation, what happens next?
The lawyer will explain a recommended approach and the work involved—for example drafting, negotiation, mediation, investigation, or litigation
After the scope and fees are confirmed, both sides complete a formal engagement, and the lawyer proceeds according to the case
The work needed differs from matter to matter, so engagement is explained case by case
Can I consult or engage if I am not in Taipei or New Taipei?
Yes
Jing Yao Attorneys-at-law is not limited to Taipei and New Taipei. Clients elsewhere may contact us on LINE first; online consultation can be arranged depending on the matter
If hearings, mediation, or other in-person steps follow, the lawyer will discuss arrangements based on the venue and the facts
Will what I tell the lawyer stay confidential?
Lawyers are bound by law to keep confidential what they learn in the course of their work
The facts, documents, and information you provide will be used as the law and the matter require. If third-party personal data, company secrets, or other sensitive material is involved, you can mention that at consultation
CONTACT
If you are facing a legal issue, we can help you see it more clearly
Whether the matter has just arisen, or is already in negotiation, mediation, investigation, or court, you can contact us first
Briefly describe the situation and what concerns you most on LINE. We will first understand the outline, then confirm a suitable way to consult
