In China, law firms are nonprofit organizations. So law firms do not use commercial manners to enlarge their business. Most lawyers and law firm are unwilling to invest money to allure the clients. They think that the client should pay for the lawyers and the lawyers should not pay for the clients. They have a traditional thoughts left by the state law firms: it is the client needs me, not I need the client. Only few large law firms have brochures to introduce their firms, most law firms have no consciousness to print their own notepapers, envelopes. Most law firms do not invest in advertisement. Under this kind of thoughts, the business of some law firms declined.
　VI. Conclusion:
　 When I write here, I find the obvious contrast between Chinese law firms and American law firms. After China accessed to the WTO, China lawyering is facing the thrift of invading of foreign law firms. There is imagery in my mind, which can correctly describe the competition between foreign law firms and Chinese law firms: a strapper plays with a child. The result goes without saying.
　We haven’t enough time. How can we grow up quickly? I think there are several barriers must be eliminated: the barrier of ideology, the barrier of statute and the barrier of executing the law.
　Constantly improve the knowledge and service. Lawyers should have the consciousness of improving the quality of practice all the time. Law firms should provide conveniences for the lawyers to improve practice level.
　Concentrate the human capital to form large law firms. Partners of small law firms should throw away the thoughts of each does things in his own way and wants to be local despot. After clear up the barrier in mind, it is easy to concentrate the human capital and fund together. The large law firms associate with each other, the small law firms merge into the large law firms. Thus forms some large-sized law firms to competent with foreign law firms.
　Consciously propagandize the law firms. Apply various measures to advertisement.
