White & Case has been granted a four-year extension of its Qualifying Foreign Law Practice license in Singapore, allowing it to practice local law without having to form joint ventures or alliances with domestic law firms.
The New York-based firm was one of the first six firms granted a QFLP license in 2008, when Singapore introduced the program as part of a gradual liberalization of the city-state’s legal market. The license allows foreign firms to practice certain areas of corporate law while prohibiting them from advising on litigation and appearing in court.
