Dentons Rodyk is honoured to have won the Maritime Law Firm of the Year and M&A Deal of the Year (Midsize) awards at the Asian Legal Business (ALB) SE Asia Law Awards 2019. 

The Maritime Law Firm of the Year award is testament to the holistic shipping proposition that Dentons Rodyk has always offered to clients in the maritime industry, from transactional services such as ship finance, finance and operating leases, off-balance-sheet structures, debt restructuring, corporate structuring, tax planning, offshore repair and construction, through to dispute resolution services such as ship arrest and defence, mortgage enforcement, maritime litigation and arbitration. Senior Partners Lawrence Teh and Janice Ngeow are the co-leads of our Maritime practice.

We received the M&A Deal of the Year (Midsize) award for our role in the merger of ESR-REIT with Viva Industrial Trust. This was a landmark transaction, being the first merger of its kind between two listed S-REITs in Singapore. Corporate Senior Partner Nicholas Chong led the matter, supported by Corporate Partner Junming Tong. 

We would like to thank our clients and business partners for their support and confidence in working with us.
