As an established presence in Singapore’s legal market, we have the know-how to help both domestic and international companies. Our Corporate & Securities practice is renowned for its ability to guide clients undertaking multi-jurisdictional matters from structuring and documentation to successful completion.
We have expertise in all areas of corporate and securities, including M&A, Private Equity, Capital Markets, Insurance, Real Estate, IT & Communications, Employment, and Antitrust & Competition. We get deals done and have acted on some of the most high-profile corporate transactions in the market. The world’s leading legal directories and publications regularly feature our corporate lawyers.
Our
Dispute Resolution lawyers have developed our reputation as being the go-to firm for complex disputes with a cross-border dimension. Our team has the broad-based ability to advise on court procedures and laws of the world’s major financial centers, such as New York, London, Hong Kong and Singapore. Our lawyers appear in court for litigation matters (by virtue of the joint law venture with Wong & Leow LLC) as well as arbitrations and other alternative dispute resolution processes.
We have a fantastic track record when it comes to advising financial institutions and corporations on every manner and aspect of cross-border and domestic financing across numerous industry sectors. One of the key strengths of our
Finance & Projects team is the ability to combine international and domestic legal advice within a single team. This is of particular value to our
Banking & Finance clients as we eliminate issues that frequently arise when separate counsels are appointed in different jurisdictions.
Our
Intellectual Property practice is one of the largest in Singapore. We undertake the full range of IP-related work, including enforcement, portfolio management, commercial & regulatory, and IP disputes (including patent, copyright and trademark disputes). Our reputation and experience help ensure that our clients, who include the owners of some of the world’s best known brands, are advised by a team that can provide local insight and practical advice as well as develop a cutting-edge, multi-jurisdictional protection strategy as required.
We also provide high quality service to multinationals and major Singapore enterprise clients from various industries through our
Tax, Trade and Wealth Management team. We have the largest number of dedicated tax practitioners among law firms in Singapore and offer a comprehensive range of tax expertise. This allows us to develop expertise in focused areas to provide clients with specialised tax advice. We regularly undertake regional work (such as multi-jurisdictional tax planning and restructuring) and often drive the regional and even global strategy from Singapore, working with our other offices, many of which are top-tier tax practices across Asia. Only the Big Four accountancy firms can compete with us on work of this nature, but we offer the key advantage that we can also advise on the law.
