Jersey-headquartered law firm Bedell Cristin has expanded its presence in Singapore with a move to a new office.
The firm is now located in a historic conservation shop house in Stanley Street, a move the firm says aims to support their growing South East Asian business, while also offering it the opportunity to host events.
It follows the recruitment of Joanne Verbiesen, an experienced senior private client and offshore litigation lawyer, as a partner at the firm over summer. She is working alongside Kristian Wilson, a Bedell Cristin partner who previously practised offshore law in Jersey and the BVI before moving to Singapore with Bedell Cristin.
Tim Pearce, Global Managing Partner, commented: “It is our intention over time to look to recruit more locally based lawyers with an international focus as we build our business in the region. The move is part of our international growth strategy where we focus on providing comprehensive offshore legal services from an experienced, highly skilled partner led team across our key markets.”
