伟凯律师事务所法律顾问Baldwin Cheng近期被提升为合伙人，并从该所的香港办事处被调派到北京分所。

Cheng的业务领域将集中于金融。 在加盟伟凯之前，Cheng曾在伦敦当过三年的律师。

White & Case bank finance and restructuring counsel, Baldwin Cheng, has recently been promoted to partner and relocated from Hong Kong to Beijing.

Cheng, who prior to joining White & Case in 2008, spent three years working in London, will continue to advise clients in Hong Kong and Shanghai as part of the firm’s integrated Greater China finance practice.

His move to Beijing is also part of the embattled firm’s continuing efforts to place both English and US qualified lawyers throughout key Asian jurisdictions. But in recent times it has been losing partners as fast as it can make them up.

Earlier this year, White & Case brought in Francis Zou from Allen & Overy’s US China group to rebuild its global banking practice.
