Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow has hired corporate/M&A specialist Min-tze Lean as a principal from Stamford Law Corporation in Singapore.
With more than 17 years of experience, Lean focuses on M&As, joint ventures, corporate advisory and compliance work, insolvency and restructuring, employment, and competition law. He has advised on public company takeovers and represents SGX-listed companies in their acquisitions and disposals of assets, as well as placements and reverse takeovers.
“We are delighted to welcome Min-tze to the Firm,” said Andy Leck, managing principal of Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow, in a statement. “His addition is a great asset to our corporate practice. It also reflects our firm's commitment to expand our offering to assist our clients in increasingly complex deals. As Singapore bolsters its status as a key financial centre, we are in an excellent position to help our clients leverage opportunities and navigate challenges."
Stamford Law recently merged with the U.S.-headquartered Morgan Lewis & Bockius. Rajah & Tann announced last week that it had hired Stamford disputes partner Tan Chuan Thye SC.
In October, Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow hired Chen Yih Pong as principal in the corporate and securities practice group from WongPartnership.
