Allison Lee, who has practised at Debevoise & Plimpton, brings 15 years of M&A experience to Mayer Brown as a Hong Kong-based partner.
Qualified in New York and Hong Kong, Lee focuses on cross-border M&A, joint ventures, strategic investments, distribution arrangements and secondary sale transactions across Asia.
Kevin Sheridan, leader of Mayer Brown’s global corporate & securities practice, said Lee’s extensive experience advising sophisticated insurance companies, financial institutions and private equity sponsors perfectly complements the firm’s M&A strategy across Asia.
Mayer Brown has bolstered its M&A practice recently through strategic moves, including the appointment of M&A partner Hannah Ha as chair of the firm’s Asia board and hiring M&A partner Eiji Kobayashi in Tokyo in July.
