Singapore-based RHTLaw Taylor Wessing has added two partners in the form of shipping veteran Govindarajalu Asokan, and general litigation lawyer Mimi Oh, as it moves to strengthen its litigation and dispute resolution practice.

Asokan, an expert in admiralty and shipping law, has 33 years of experience in commercial and shipping litigation, arbitration, insurance, tax, banking, and domestic and international business transactions. He was most recently with a Singapore law firm specialising in shipping.

Oh, who previously ran her own practice under the name of Mimi Oh & Associates, specialises in general litigation, alternative dispute resolution, and commercial arbitration.

The additions of Asokan and Oh take the total number of partners at RHTLaw Taylor Wessing to 31. The firm also has two consultants and 27 associates and legal managers (lawyers not called to the Singapore bar, but qualified to practice in their respective jurisdictions). ALB
