UK firm Withers has grown its family law practice in Singapore with the additions of partner Ivan Cheong and senior associate Shaun Ho. Both join from local firm Harry Elias Partnership.

Cheong’s practice focuses on family law, divorce proceedings, custody disputes,  and pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements.

The hires come days after Withers lost two lawyers to Harry Elias Partnership, namely banking and finance partners Pearl Lim and Chan Wai Chong.

Following Cheong’s addition, Withers now has 27 partners in Singapore.
