Rudy Lim, a former corporate partner in Singapore for DLA Piper and Duane Morris, has had his two-month sentence for lying about his annual compensation in an effort to switch firms slashed by a local high court justice. Lim will now serve one day in jail and pay a $10,000 fine.
According to reports by Bloomberg and The Straits Times, Lim was “dealt the ultimate professional punishment” by being disbarred in the U.K. as a result of telling Duane Morris — as part of a scheme to increase his compensation at his new firm — that his monthly draw from DLA was $65,000 when it was really $25,000.
