Tjia-Dharmadi talks about how the energy space in Asia has evolved in recent years, and what that means for today’s energy lawyers.
U.S. law firm McDermott Will & Emery has continued to expand its newly established Singapore office after hiring four lawyers specializing in investigations and compliance from Sidley Austin, including partners Yuet Ming Tham and Shu Min Ho. Tham will join as Singapore managing partner.
