Kennedys is entering into a joint law venture (JLV) with law firm Legal Solutions in Singapore, after receiving a licence from the Attorney General’s Chambers.

The new firm will operate under the name of Kennedys Legal Solutions, and is expected to launch in the following months.

The JLV is expected to provide services including litigation, arbitration, corporate and conveyancing services as well as healthcare, employment, construction, aviation, shipping, regulatory and corporate insurance advice.

In December, Kennedys hired six lawyers, including partners Peng Lim and Anita Quy, from Clyde & Co.’s aviation practice in Singapore.
