Disputes expert Jonathan Choo, who was most recently a partner at Bird & Bird, has left to launch his own practice in Singapore.

The new firm, called Vantage Chambers, offers services related to all forms of dispute resolution, with a specific focus on arbitration, mediation, and neutral evaluation and determination.

With more than two decades of experience in commercial disputes in both ad hoc and institutional arbitrations and mediations, Choo is also a Singapore arbitrator and mediator. He has additionally represented clients in litigation and court matters.

Before joining the UK-based Bird & Bird as a partner in 2016, he was a partner at the legacy Olswang. He previously worked for DLA Piper and Drew & Napier.
