U.S. firm White & Case has added capital markets specialist Margie Chan as a partner in Hong Kong from Norton Rose Fulbright (NRF).

Chan’s arrival comes about two months after White & Case lost senior lawyers to NRF in Hong Kong: PE/M&A partner Peggy Wang and counsel Victor Sim, who focuses on leveraged, structured and real estate finance.

Chan, who started her career at Herbert Smith Freehills in 2000, focuses on debt offerings, private placement issuances and liability management transactions.

Prior to joining NRF, Chan was with Davis Polk & Wardwell for more than a decade.

White & Case has also hired projects lawyers Chris Flynn and Tim Kennedy as partners in Sydney from Australian firm Gilbert + Tobin.
