Germany’s CMS Hasche Sigle has opened its second international office in Hong Kong, closely following the opening of its Tehran office earlier this year.

The Hong Kong outpost aims to offer services to clients from Europe, China, the Asia-Pacific region and the United States. The office will focus primarily on dispute resolution and mergers and acquisitions, and is expected to gradually establish a banking and finance practice by 2017.

The local CMS team will be led by Nicolas Wiegand, a partner with CMS Hasche Sigle’s international arbitration group, and will include lawyers from Germany, China and Russia. 

CMS Hasche Sigle is a member of the CMS Legal Services EEIG organisation of law firms, which currently has 3,000 legal and tax advisers across 60 offices.
