Ince has hired dispute resolution veteran Stephen Chan as a partner in its Hong Kong office from Reed Smith, where he was also a partner.

Chan’s hire comes a few weeks after Ince’s Hong Kong office lost litigation partner Bonita Chan to Anthony Siu & Co, PRC firm Jia Yuan Law Offices’ association firm in the city.

Stephen Chan’s practice includes multi-jurisdictional fraud and asset tracing involving freezing, gagging and other urgent interim injunctive measures, technology-related disputes, shareholder and company disputes, and contentious employment matters. Chan is also experienced in arbitration under HKIAC, SIAC, ICC, UNCITRAL and other institutional arbitral rules.

Having started his career in New Zealand, Chan had two stints at Hong Kong’s Oldham, Li & Nie (OLN) on either side of a year at Gall Solicitors. Chan joined Reed Smith in 2019 as a partner from OLN.

With Chan’s arrival, Ince now has 13 partners in Hong Kong.
