How do foreigners entrust lawyers to file lawsuits?
Legal analysis: overseas parties may entrust their nationals or qualified China citizens as litigation agents, or their domestic lawyers as non-lawyers; If it is necessary to entrust a lawyer to represent the lawsuit in China People's Court, China's lawyer must be entrusted. If an overseas party entrusts an agent ad litem, it must issue a power of attorney signed by himself or an authorized signatory of a legal person or other organization. The aforementioned power of attorney signed by the authorized signatory abroad shall go through overseas notarization, authentication or other authentication procedures prescribed by law.

Legal basis: Article 59 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Civil Procedure Law entrusts others to represent the lawsuit, and a power of attorney signed or sealed by the client must be submitted to the people's court.

The power of attorney must specify the entrusted matters and authority. An agent ad litem must have the special authorization of the client, and can admit, waive or change the claim, make a settlement, file a counterclaim or appeal on his behalf.
