Fangda makes energy hire from HSF

Fangda Partners has added an energy expert Monica Sun from Herbert Smith Freehills in its Beijing office, where she was a partner.

Sun becomes Fangda’s second energy expert in Beijing after the earlier departure of HSF energy counsel Li Jie in July this year.

With over 20 years of experience in the energy, natural resources and infrastructure sectors, Sun specially focuses on multi-dimensional legal services for the whole industry chain of the oil and gas, LNG, power and infrastructure industries.

“The energy and infrastructure sector are an important segment of the legal business and a key fulcrum for the high-quality transformation and development of the global economy. Sun and Li, with their rich industry experience and deep expertise in the relevant fields, will bring new perspectives and inject new vitality into our legal services in this area,” said Han Liang, the Director of Fangda's Management Committee.

With the addition of Sun, Fangda now has three other energy partners in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
