Conyers

‘Renowned for its familiarity with the financial and judicial environment in Hong Kong’, the ’knowledgeable and responsive’ team at Conyers is consequently able to provide ‘practical solutions for clients to deal with matters involving the relevant offshore jurisdictions efficiently’. Under the astute leadership of the ’very experienced’ Christopher Bickley the firm has gained most acclaim for its corporate and issuer side capital markets work, which was again underscored by Bickley’s recent representation of Chinese spirit maker’s JLD Group’s high-profile HK$5.3bn HKSE IPO. Richard Hall is also well regarded for corporate finance matters, as is Lilian Woo, who excels at handling global equity offerings. Mark Yeadon spearheads the office’s three-partner litigation offering that is particularly adept at handling cross-border family and shareholder disputes and restructuring. Within that group, Norman Hau is ‘very experienced in dealing with commercial and corporate disputes with PRC clients’, while Anna Lin has experience in working on complex and high-value share appraisal proceedings, directors liability disputes and professional negligence claims in various offshore jurisdictions. Consultant David Lamb also handles contentious corporate work as well as public company M&A.
