“We are witnessing a huge increase worldwide in the international arbitration space and with offices strategically located in our core jurisdictions across UK, Europe, Middle East and Asia, we are very well positioned to leverage this growth,” Stewart Hey, partner and divisional managing partner of the litigation and dispute resolution division, said. 

Jeffrey Lee, partner and head of the Singapore office, added: “Singapore is absolutely key to the firm’s international growth ambitions, given the abundance of interesting work in the region as families, individuals and businesses look to deploy and protect their capital internationally.”

The news follows the appointment of Tun Zaw Mra in the corporate team in Singapore in January this year; the Singapore office was opened in 2023.
