Norton Rose Fulbright has hired insurance litigation specialist Declan McDaid as a partner in its Hong Kong office.

McDaid specialises in contentious non-marine insurance, and advises clients on policy, coverage and other insurance-related matters.

He joins from Deacons, where he was a partner in the firm’s insurance practice in Hong Kong.

With the addition of McDaid, Norton Rose Fulbright now has six partners in its dispute resolution practice in Hong Kong.
