About Tong

Tong Xu is an associate on the business & corporate team. She advises companies on a broad range of business transactions and corporate matters, drawing on a legal background that spans China and the United States to provide practical, business-minded legal advice.

Tong’s practice includes domestic and cross-border mergers and acquisitions, private equity investments, entity formation, and corporate governance. Her background across Chinese and U.S. legal systems gives her a distinct vantage point on cross-border transactions, particularly those involving Chinese and U.S. counterparties. She also has experience coordinating multijurisdictional matters with local counsel and advising clients on corporate structuring, financing, and regulatory compliance.

Tong began her legal education at Renmin University of China, earning her LL.B. before completing an LL.M. at Cornell Law School. After law school, Tong served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Marybeth Dingledy of the Snohomish County Superior Court. She then worked as a corporate associate at JunHe LLP in Seattle, advising on cross-border M&A, private equity investments, and general corporate matters. Prior to joining Miller Nash, Tong completed a six-month secondment with a Seattle-based, global technology company, advising on corporate governance matters.
