Yeoh Chin maintains a busy practice advising international and Hong Kong-headquartered clients on M&A transactions, privatisations and joint ventures. His recent work includes transactions for manufacturing, TMT and insurance clients.

The lawyer part is a given with him; for me what he does differently is that he takes time out to explain things to me in my lanuage.

He's very attentive to what clients actually need and knows our interests and what points we should take. He understands what we actually need and successfully helps us negotiate.
