Lewis Silkin’s Hong Kong office shortlisted for three Asian Legal Business awards

Now in its 16th year, the ALB awards pay tribute to the outstanding performance of both private practitioners and in-house teams from Hong Kong and the region and is run by Asian Legal Business. This publication is rated as one of the leading providers of legal news and information in Asia Pacific and is part of Thomson Reuters. The awards ceremony will be held on Friday 8 September 2017.

Lewis Silkin is shortlisted in the Immigration Law Firm of the Year, Labour and Employment Law Firm of the Year and Rising Law Firm of the Year categories.

Opened in May 2015, Lewis Silkin’s Hong Kong office offers high quality and cost-effective employment and global mobility support across Asia Pacific working alongside and coordinating advice from local firms in the Ius Laboris alliance – the world’s leading alliance of specialist employment law firms. The office also provides a first point of contact for APAC-based businesses and individuals who are seeking advice on UK and European employment law and business immigration issues.

Antonia Grant, partner and Head of Hong Kong office commented:

"We are delighted that we have been shortlisted for these three prestigious awards which recognise the work undertaken by our team in Hong Kong. The Asia Pacific region is a key area of growth for our practice as our clients look for integrated support on employment and immigration issues across the region. We see our shortlisting for these awards very much as a stamp of approval for the quality of our work."
