Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft has confirmed today the hire of the bulk of Latham & Watkins' Hong Kong-qualified corporate team, led by two partners, who will join its Greater China practice in Hong Kong.
Last month, Legal Week revealed that former Latham & Watkins Hong Kong manging partner Michael Liu and another corporate partner Jane Ng were leaving the firm for Cadwalader. Liu was previously the Asia chief for magic circle firm Allen & Overy.
They have been joined at the US firm by senior associate Stephen Chan, who has been promoted to partner, along with four counsel: Simon Berry, also a former partner of Allen & Overy, Olivia Wong, Terris Tang and Eva Tam, as well as several other lawyers.
