3. Perennial legal adviser

Long An Was Retained as Perennial Legal Adviser of China Life Investment Holding Co., Ltd.

Following being selected into the database of China Life Insurance (Group) Company Law Firm, in April 2017, Liu, Xiaoming’s lawyer team of Long An Law Firm Beijing Offices, was hired by China Life Investment Holding Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Life Group, as a perennial legal adviser to provide legal services for the daily operation and management of the company.

常年這里用perennial（常在的、長(zhǎng)年的）來(lái)表示，更為貼切【you use perennial to describe situations or states that keep occurring or which seem to exist all the time (Collins)】；而法律顧問(wèn)除了用legal counsel之外，也可以用legal adviser來(lái)表述，【Legal adviser: a lawyer who gives advice (Collins)】。

同以上的兩種譯法相比常年財(cái)務(wù)顧問(wèn)?英文，第三種譯法更為常見(jiàn)一些，在谷歌中搜到的搭配也更多，如：

因此，在筆者看來(lái)，第三種處理方法更為妥當(dāng)、地道，當(dāng)然，如有不同意見(jiàn)，歡迎大家賜教。
