We are delighted to share that three of Yuen Law’s principal lawyers have been recognised as Notable Practitioners, while our firm has earned a Recognised ranking for Corporate and M&A in the latest edition of asialaw 2023/2024.
Kevin Chua, Senior Director in our Corporate Practice Group and Team Lead for Regulatory and Securities, makes his debut in asialaw – Asia’s authoritative guide to prominent law firms and attorneys. This is in recognition of his work in Corporate and M&A, as well as Regulatory matters.
“I find great satisfaction in guiding clients through Singapore’s complex legal landscape, especially in the domains of financial services regulation, fintech, digital payment tokens (DPTs), and corporate matters. Fintech and DPTs evolve rapidly compared to other, more traditional areas of the law, necessitating vigilant monitoring, and adaptative legislation and regulatory policies. Our Regulatory and Securities team’s work in the fintech compliance space has been extremely rewarding and I am excited for Yuen Law to take on more meaningful ventures in the coming years.”

“In the vibrant legal landscape of Singapore’s tech sector, navigating corporate law requires both precision and adaptability. I am proud of our team’s work in mergers and acquisitions (M&As) this year, an area where Yuen Law has consistently excelled in. I am further heartened and grateful that our driving passion for excellence as legal practitioners and in achieving the best possible outcomes for our clients is recognised and valued.”
