Eversheds Harry Elias in Singapore
As of 1 June 2017 Harry Elias Partnership and Eversheds Sutherland have merged to become Eversheds Harry Elias. Harry Elias was founded almost 30 years ago and has a long, rich history in Singapore. Eversheds Sutherland has continued to grow and develop in Asia and the merger is transformational for both sides, creating one of the largest international law firms in Singapore able to service clients from across the wider Eversheds Sutherland network.
Strategically located in the heart of ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations), Singapore has established itself as the premier trading hub for South East Asia. The country’s pro-business reputation attracts sizeable foreign investments and offers a highly conducive environment for entrepreneurs. As Singapore continues to develop rapidly, we understand that you need advisers who understand your business and who can help you to navigate the cultural intricacies and common pitfalls of doing business in Singapore.
How we can help you
Our firm is made up of more than 20 partners and 50+ lawyers who provide high quality advice to both local and international clients with our office serving as the hub for work throughout South East Asia, including Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and the Philippines. We cover a broad range of areas from corporate and financial services to real estate and construction, through to arbitration and litigation. No matter what area of law, or what stage of the project cycle you are at, we can help you fulfill your ambitions at a regional and global level.

A practice of firsts
We thrive on being involved in cases that break new ground and result in watershed judicial decisions. We were involved in a number of construction masterpieces such as the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort, Singapore FI Night Race Pit Building and the Singapore Flyer which forms part of Singapore’s magnificent skyline.
We have also advised and represented corporate and individual clients on complex cross-border deals. Our extensive experience in high profile public international law matters and in international commercial and investor-state arbitration has earned us a reputation of providing focused, proactive and practical advise to a wide spectrum of international clientele.
We advise our clients with their business and commercial interests in mind. Our project management approach brings clients clear, efficient and cost-effective legal management on even the most complex matters.
