What Others Say

Very professional firm and people. Simon has been amazing in accompanying us through a transaction. Laurent has been great as well. Shap, commercial, nice and more importantly always available (email, WhatsApp, phone) which is a key differentiator vs. other legal firms.

– Laurent Ly

Simon was very knowledgeable and patient. He was able to address all our questions and concerns in a prompt and professional manner. Simon was able to think from the client’s shoe which made decision making a lot easier.

Simon Wong is by far the best lawyer I’ve worked with – he truly understood our needs and went above and beyond to provide us the best service possible with a very quick turnaround.
