In addition to our Asia desk, we have a specialist real estate team who are on hand to assist with a vast array of specialist Real Estate matters, from Clive Selwyn our block lease specialist to Matthew Elash who specialises in Bridging Finance.

As well as our real estate team, we are on hand to support our clients with all personal and business advisory matters from shipping law to international arbitration and white collar crime.
