Offshore firm Ogier has hired corporate and financial disputes expert Justin Davis as a partner in Hong Kong from competitor Carey Olsen, where he was a counsel.

Additionally, the Hong Kong office has promoted managing associate Michael Snape, who also specialises in disputes, to partner.

The moves happen days after partner and Asia disputes head Ray Ng exited Ogier’s Hong Kong office to join Charles Russell Speechlys.

Davis focuses on multi-jurisdictional commercial and corporate litigation, disputes and insolvency litigation, injunctions and asset disclosure orders.
