Conyers is pleased to announce the launch of its Litigation & Restructuring Practice in its Singapore office, with the arrival of Director Anna Lin in September 2024.
Director Anna Lin joins the Singapore team from her successful tenure in the firm’s Hong Kong disputes team, where she has practiced since 2016. Anna is highly regarded for her extensive practice, which spans cross-border liquidation and restructuring, corporate disputes, and trusts. She is widely recognised as an industry leader, being most recently named as a Legal 500 “Next Generation Partner” and one of Asian Legal Business Magazine’s Top Offshore Litigators of 2024. Anna was recognized as a Fellow of INSOL International in August 2024. Read more about Anna’s experience here.
Conyers’ Singapore Litigation & Restructuring practice will focus on cross-border litigation and restructuring, specifically concerning companies with ties to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and other countries in the region, and will work closely with, and be supported by, Conyers’ leading litigation and restructuring practices across the firm’s network. Anna will lead the Singapore practice and looks forward to growing her team. She will continue her Hong Kong disputes practice and will continue to serve her long standing clients there.
Director and Head of Singapore office, Preetha Pillai, said “We are delighted to have Anna join Conyers’ Singapore office in response to client demand. Singapore is a market we are deeply committed to, as we strive to deliver the highest calibre of service and support to businesses and individuals in the region. The launch of this practice supports our well-established Singapore office and will complement our existing legal and corporate services in Southeast Asia.”
Christopher Bickley, Head of Asia and Managing Partner for the Hong Kong office, reflected “The launch of the Singapore Litigation & Restructuring practice underscores Conyers’ unwavering dedication to serving clients across Asia. It is a testament to our firm’s determination to be the trusted advisor of choice for clients navigating the complex business and regulatory landscapes of this dynamic and fast-growing part of the world.”
Director and Chairman Christian Luthi added “Anna’s experience and track record in cross-border disputes and insolvency matters make her the ideal candidate to lead this initiative. We are confident that under Anna’s direction, the Singapore Litigation & Restructuring practice will thrive and continue our firm’s tradition of excellence in serving our clients’ needs in Asia.”
