Michelle Sum
SENIOR ASSOCIATE, LITIGATION AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION, HONG KONG
"I have worked with colleagues across the network, including our offices in Beijing, Singapore, Paris, Amsterdam and London. They have all been great to work with and the ability to be an email or phone call away from the answer you are looking for in another jurisdiction is very valuable."
Yufei Liao
PARTNER, CORPORATE, BEIJING
"I joined Clifford Chance immediately after graduation - I studied my Bachelor of Law at Peking University and an LLM at Tsinghua University. I undertook the two-year training period in Beijing which was mainly within our Capital Markets group."
Joel Sherard
ASSOCIATE, SINGAPORE (SECONDED TO STRUCTURED DEBT, LONDON)
"The most rewarding aspect of my work is helping clients navigate complex deals. The sense of accomplishment when a deal is completed - and knowing that my contributions truly made a difference – is what I truly enjoy."
Sae Kawakami
QUALIFIED LAWYER , GLOBAL FINANCIAL MARKETS, TOKYO
"While working in the Tokyo office as a vacation scheme student, I was impressed by the intelligence of the lawyers and their ability to find solutions to complex legal and commercial issues. "
