Reed Smith has added Stephanie Chan as a partner to the firm’s litigation practice in Hong Kong from Ashurst where she was a counsel.

This is Reed Smith’s fourth litigation partner hire in Hong Kong since May this year. In September, the firm appointed disputes lawyer Peter Glover as a partner from Norton Rose Fulbright. Prior to this it nabbed Stephen Chan as a partner from Oldham Li & Nie, and shortly afterwards, snapped up Mark West from Kennedys, where he was co-head of regulatory.

Chan specialises in commercial litigation, contentious regulatory matters and international arbitration. She focuses on cross-border contractual disputes, joint venture and shareholder disputes, fraud, enforcement of securities and debt recovery.  Her practice covers industry sectors such as financial services, mining, real estate, entertainment, energy as well as manufacturing.

With Chan’s arrival, Reed Smith now has 26 partners in Hong Kong.
