@RWS_01 @AsiaLawPortal With what is happening to China now, firms are forced to finally look closely at SEA but how that plays out for law firm competition remains to be seen. Huge opportunities there and latecomers may have contend with the sour grape syndrome for a bit.
@RWS_01 @AsiaLawPortal ... Southeast Asia is pretty fair game though the U.S. firms (not the vereins) haven't really had strong footholds there. In that part of Asia, relationships with domestic firms count best, which usually means the British firms (not the MCs) have a stronger sell.
@RWS_01 @AsiaLawPortal ...for Southeast Asia, which in terms of size and potential of commercial opportunities (though still huge) still pales in comparison to China. Firms somehow find it hard to ignore that market even though they struggle to understand and keep up with it..
@RWS_01 @AsiaLawPortal ... as firms in the region started sniffing out a new game plan and started merging amongst themselves. And then it became to be about the global elites, mostly targeting outbound M&A as you have correctly pointed out. I personally think the MC sell fizzled out a long time ago...
@RWS_01 @AsiaLawPortal I'd agree with you, Richard. Certainly 10 - 15 years ago, the Magic Circle branding was more appealing, particularly in Hong Kong. Just as the U.S. firms broke into the Greater China and were selling themselves as Wall Street firms. Both had legs that were cut short quickly..
Not sure @BytedanceTalk will be able offer @SkaddenArps a volume of work that is on par with the revenue Julie Gao generates. A level playing field, time to seize the day! law.com/international-…

Death of innocent civilians, over no cause at all.
Video verified by The New York Times shows the bombardment of Chernihiv, Ukraine, on Thursday. As smoke cleared from the attack — which hit near apartments, pharmacies and a hospital — people are seen running in the street. nyti.ms/3sE87XD
The increasing control China has over Hong Kong has unveiled some uncomfortable truths: international law firms are reassessing their business strategies in the city, although none are going to shout about it from the mountain tops. store.law.com/Registration/L…
