Wee Swee Teow (WST), one of Singapore’s oldest law firms, is acquiring boutique Tang Thomas. The latter firm’s two name-partners will take on practice head roles at the merged outfit, which will keep the name Wee Swee Teow.
Cynthia Tang, managing partner of Tang Thomas, will head WST’s corporate practice, while partner Raj Joshua Thomas will co-head WST’s dispute resolution practice and lead its regulatory practice. With these additions, WST will have eight partners in total.
Tang, a former lawyer at Kelvin Chia Partnership, also worked in-house with Italian pharmaceutical giant Menarini Group. She co-founded Tang Thomas with Thomas in 2020.
