Simmons & Simmons’ global standing in labour and employment law is very much in evidence in the Singapore office, which has expanded considerably in recent years. The department ‘focuses on directed, commercial advice that addresses the specific needs of their clients’. Building on the firm’s longstanding leadership in the Hong Kong market, where Fiona Loughrey founded the firm’s Asia employment practice in 1999, the Singapore department is led by Clarence Ding (‘a dedicated practitioner who exemplifies the qualities that most clients desire’) who is an emerging talent in contentious, transactional and advisory matters; Loughrey also spends time in Singapore. Ding and the team, often with support from Hong Kong colleagues, have represented numerous multinational clients in major contentious matters, restructurings, and M&A-related issues. The group has dealt with multiple employee claims, whistleblower complaints and post-termination restrictions, among other matters.
