She has a broad range of experience in corporate, commercial, securities, and real estate transactions, with a special focus on Asian investments in Canada.

Rosanna offers her clients a wide spectrum of services. For clients moving to and/or investing in Canada, she handles business and real estate acquisitions, joint ventures, corporate reorganizations, and any related tax planning.  For Asian corporations seeking a listing on a Canadian stock exchange, Rosanna advises them regarding listing requirements and procedures and represents them in reverse takeovers of stock exchange-listed companies in Canada, or in initial public offerings on a Canadian stock exchange.

Rosanna represents clients mostly from Asia, including state-owned corporations from the People's Republic of China, public companies in Canada, and Canadian subsidiaries and affiliates of public companies in Hong Kong.  Rosanna handled one of the earliest Canada-China joint ventures operated in Vancouver involving a Chinese stated-owned corporation, a multi-national corporation from Hong Kong, and a Canadian investor.

In this era of business without borders, Rosanna represents clients who need a business lawyer with global exposure. Rosanna has extensive experience in multi-jurisdictional transactions, and has worked with lawyers in Hong Kong, People's Republic of China, England, United States, Australia, France, Malaysia, Mexico, Cayman Islands, Bermuda and British Virgin Islands.

Rosanna has lectured and written on business law and immigration law.

To provide a full range of services to her clients, Rosanna works closely with lawyers in other practice areas, such as tax, intellectual property and litigation, while providing additional assistance to her clients, particularly when her ability to speak and write the Chinese language is useful to them.
