Asia Pacific 亞太區

We have been operating in the Asia Pacific for many years, working with our clients as they expand and develop their businesses in the region, and as they seek to do business in Europe and the UK.

We understand the region’s business practices and the regulatory environment, and our legal teams include both local and international lawyers, combining the benefits of local knowledge, experience and language, with an international outlook.  

Led from our office in Hong Kong, our Asia practice focuses on Hong Kong, China, Japan and Korea. Through a combination of our own offices, strategic alliances and expert desks, we can offer a full international offering across the Asia Pacific region.

Our experience in the region includes advising:

  • an Indian software company, in proceedings in the Technology & Construction Court relating to the sale of a subsidiary company specialising in legal outsourcing software. 
  • on the establishment of an automotive company’s joint venture in China in which we helped moved a large number of key and skilled staff to the new venture in various locations in China.
  • an advertising agency on the employment aspects of setting up legal entities in Hong Kong and Singapore.
  • a networking platform on various HR projects across Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia.
  • House of Fraser on structuring its new franchising arrangements for its entry into the Chinese market. 
  • a tech start-up on the exit of its co-founder and CEO to join a competitor including advise on breach of contract and fiduciary duties and the enforceability of restrictive covenants.
  • a major law firm with the set-up of their Hong Kong Partnership.
  • a professional services firm on various post harmonisation projects through Asia following a merger with another professional services firm.
  • an investment bank in Hong Kong with regard to threats of litigation by an employee for breach of contract in addition to supporting with a related investigation and termination.
  • Conran Shop, part of the group of design and retail companies owned by Sir Terence Conran, on franchise agreements across Asia, including Japan, South Korea.
  • an Indian company in a US$250 million dispute with the Governorate of Basra, Iraq, and several international financial institutions, arising out of a contract for a major infrastructure project and associated performance bonds and letters of credit. The dispute involves parallel proceedings in London, Iraq and India.
