Hong Kong boutique Gall has strengthened its family and matrimonial practice with the addition of Kajal Aswani as a partner from fellow local firm Robertsons.
Aswani specialises in family law-focused dispute resolution. She handles financial divorce planning and advises on all aspects of family law, including child support and custody.
She spent more than 15 years at Robertsons, having joined the firm in 2005.
Following Aswani’s appointment, Gall presently has eight partners.

U.S. law firm Kirkland & Ellis has seen the third partner exit from its Hong Kong office in February alone, with investment funds partner Wang Shinong joining DLA Piper as an of counsel.
CMS Holborn Asia, the Singapore alliance firm of CMS, has added Ying Yi Liew as a director and head of its financial services regulatory practice from Baker McKenzie Wong & Leow, where she was a principal.
