The province will focus on promoting reform and innovation by introducing more reform achievements in the legal field, enriching diversified dispute resolution paths, and accelerating the development of a preferred destination for international commercial and maritime dispute resolution. It will focus on optimizing legal services by speeding up the cultivation of internationally top-tier legal-service institutions, improving one-stop, full-chain law-business integrated services, and continuously enhancing the legal service ecosystem. It will also focus on promoting cooperation and sharing by actively carrying out cooperation among lawyers, arbitration, and commercial mediation, and achieving more practical results in areas such as law-enforcement coordination, judicial assistance, and dispute resolution. Furthermore, it will focus on strengthening talent cultivation by expanding the team of high-level, application-oriented, and compound professionals specializing in foreign-related rule-of-law work, injecting strong intellectual support into the construction of the Maritime Silk Road Legal Services District.
