16 December 2021

In this incredible year of economic opportunity and uncertainty, we have had the distinction of supporting our clients into new areas of growth and development, both personally and professionally.

In doing so, we have been recognised as a leading firm by Chambers and Partners Asia Pacific legal directory guides in 10 practice areas across the Asia-Pacific (ex-China) region. Along with this prestigious accolade, 13 of our lawyers have likewise been recognised for their excellence in their respective market-leading practices.

We are honoured to receive this accolade, which builds upon our rankings last year. This is only possible through the thoughtful feedback provided by our clients and business partners.

We are thankful to everyone who has supported us, and we look forward to remaining as your trusted legal partner in the years to come.
