A corporate partner and a former member of Dentons Global ESG Steering Committee. In 2023, Gary was awarded by Legalband as China Top 15 Lawyer: ESG and Green Economy, and was nominated by Asia Legal Awards as ESG Lawyer of the Year. In 2023, a corporate liability case represented by Gary Yang was published by China Supreme Procuratorate as a guiding precedent for businesses seeking non-prosecution verdicts. In China, a guiding case serves as a pivotal reference for judicial decision-making, much like case law in other legal systems. This case has become the first in China to attain a non-prosecution decision through the implementation of an ESG improvement plan and also the first non-prosecution verdict for multinational company environmental criminal liability.
