About James Jianping
James Jianping Hsui began his professional journey in an unexpected place: the dance studio. He earned a B.S. in Dance from the University of Oregon in 2007, then shifted toward the law. That early training in discipline and timing preceded a legal education in Brooklyn, where he completed a J.D. and a certificate in international law in 2012.
Hsui attended Brooklyn Law School for his graduate studies. He completed the school’s J.D. program in 2012 and also received a Certificate in International Law the same year. Course descriptions list studies in international business law and public and private international law on his academic record. Those course areas informed the kind of matters he has pursued since leaving school.
He is admitted to practice in New York. After law school, Hsui established a private practice. He now operates through James Hsui, PLLC. Public records list him as maintaining active professional memberships in legal associations, though specifics are not detailed here.
Hsui’s training in international law and international business law shapes the contours of his practice. His legal education included both the traditional J.D. curriculum and specialized coursework on cross-border legal issues. That background supports work on matters that involve international law principles and transactions that cross national boundaries. He also draws on the analytical and organizational skills developed in law school to manage casework and client files.
Colleagues and clients describe Hsui as methodical in his approach. He tends to break complex matters into discrete tasks and to prioritize clear, practical next steps. Those habits echo his earlier experience in a discipline that combines technique and performance. He balances attention to detail with an eye to broader strategy when preparing filings or advising on negotiations.
Outside the office, Hsui’s earlier dance studies remain a distinctive part of his biography. They add an uncommon background to the profile of a New York lawyer and suggest a range of interests beyond the law.
He currently practices through James Hsui, PLLC, where his work centers on international and business-related legal matters.
