Our name is a reflection of Formosan Brothers’ vision: to recruit the best legal talent, and with our team, provide worldwide services to our clients both domestically and abroad.

To us, our clients are also our partners; we strive to remain vigilant about the most cutting-edge technological issues and global trends. This way, we can combine our perspective and unparalleled legal services to form a tailor-made team to fit our client’s ever-evolving needs.
Aside from our efforts to cultivate and service the domestic legal market, Formosan Brothers also achieved significant success internationally. Many of our attorneys are licensed to practice both in Taiwan and foreign jurisdictions; contributing to our deep knowledge of international legal matters. What sets Formosan Brothers apart from our competitors, especially other international law firms, is that our team of attorneys and consultants also receive legal training in Taiwan. As such, our team understands Taiwan unique cultural and business nuances. Our international clients take comfort in knowing that we will combine both international knowledge and domestic understanding to craft the most suitable solutions to transnational matters. This unique offering remains one of Formosan Brothers’ most acclaimed advantages.
Over the years, Formosan Brothers has helped numerous internationally-renowned enterprises and transnational corporations handle litigious and non-litigious legal affairs in Taiwan, gaining high recognition in the international legal community.
