Orrick have recruited former Paul Hastings partner Phoebus Chu to join the China corporate and capital market practices.
Chu, who has over fifteen years’ experience with cross-border corporate finance, capital markets and M&A transactions, will join Orrick as a partner. He will operate between the firm’s Beijing and Hong Kong offices.
While the firm now has eleven partners in its Hong Kong operations, Chu’s appointment brings the total number of partners in Orrick’s Beijing office to four.
Earlier this year the firm also appointed Tom Tobiason a partner in its Shanghai office, as part of its emerging companies group.
