Professional services organisation Ernst & Young (EY) has added Singaporean law firm PK Wong & Associates to its global network as it looks to increase its offering of legal services.

EY added Shanghai-based law firm Chen & Co in January and established its legal services capability in Vietnam in April to go with member law firms in India and Japan.

PK Wong & Associates, a boutique corporate commercial law firm with employment, insolvency and disputes capabilities, will offer legal services to clients in Singapore and the rest of the ASEAN region, complementing EY’s assurance, tax, transactions and advisory teams.

“Globally, EY offers legal services in more than 50 countries with over 1,200 lawyers,” said John Dick, ASEAN Law Leader at EY, in a statement.

“In the past year, we have focused on the development of our legal services capability in Asia-Pacific, specifically ASEAN. Key to the development in ASEAN is to have a strong hub out of Singapore, and with PK Wong & Associates LLC joining us, we have laid the foundation for our regional platform.”
