Sullivan & Cromwell, which opened its Hong Kong office in 1992, has completed the regulatory measures necessary to commence practice of law in Hong Kong.
The firm, which opened its Beijing office in 1999, making it among the first top-tier Wall Street firms to have an office in China, has been so far serving the Greater China region through these two offices. The Hong Kong office currently boasts a strong team of lawyers, including partners William Chua, Michael DeSombre, Kay Ian Ng, Chun Wei and Gwen Wong.
"S&C has been committed to the Asia-Pacific region for many decades, with an integrated practice advising clients in their inbound and outbound investments, M&A and capital raising activities,” said Joseph C. Shenker, chairman of Sullivan & Cromwell, in a statement. “Having the ability to offer clients advice under Hong Kong law is a natural extension to our diversified, global practice.” ALB
