Career
Samuel Yuen has a strong focus on corporate and commercial matters relating to startups and emerging companies.
Driven by the belief that an effective lawyer is a collaborator for success, he works hand in glove with his clients to meet their needs at their various stages of growth.
An old hand at business development owing to a long family line of entrepreneurs and undertakings in various law firms, Samuel understands the struggles and gratification of running a business. That empathy, combined with business acumen, is what builds greater affinity between him and corporate clients.
Before starting Yuen Law, Samuel earned his stripes in top firms, where he specialised in mergers and acquisitions, public listings and intellectual property. He played a key role in major deals such as the proposed GK Goh and Vickers Ballas merger, listing of Brascabos, and reverse takeover of HSR International Realtors.
As in-house counsel and department head of an intellectual property agency, Samuel successfully defended Grimoldi S.A against Guccio Gucci S.p.A in a high- profile case. Samuel is the author of “Funding for Startups – A Guide to Fundraising”, which draws on his extensive experience in advising startups and venture capital firms in their capital raises.
