What Others Say
Selwyn Chan at OLN was a pleasure to work with. He was able to deal with a complex situation confidently and efficiently delivering the outcome we desired.

I worked with Selwyn Chan and his team at Oldham, Li & Nie. Selwyn guided me through all the steps needed to bring my case to a close and was always very professional and straight-forward during our strategic reviews. Today, I often retain his services for other matters – personal and corporate – and will keep doing so for the foreseeable future.

My enquiry was handled by Selwyn Chan and I was really impressed how quickly it was all done. I contacted three companies where the first one did not even reply and the second one said they could not proceed because of a third COVID-19 wave. As for Mr Chan, it was not just super professional but also super quick and efficient given the situation in the current global pandemic. I cannot thank him enough and would definitely contact him again.
