DWF announces exclusive associations in Singapore and South
Africa
DWF, the global provider of integrated legal and business
services, today announces that it has agreed exclusive associations
with the Singaporean law firm, Eldan Law and the South African law
firm, Thomson Wilks.
Eldan Law was founded in 2010 as a boutique disputes resolution
firm. It has since grown quickly into a full-service firm with
expertise across a range of practice areas including commercial
litigation, international arbitration, corporate real estate,
intellectual property and corporate transactions. Eldan Law is
among the 25 largest local law firms in Singapore. It has 17
partners, including its three Founding Partners- Daniel Koh, Edwin
Lee and Lawrence Tan.
Thomson Wilks is an innovative full-service law firm with
offices in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. It specialises in
practice areas including dispute resolution & litigation, and
corporate & commercial. Led by CEO Stephen Thomson, it has a
total of nine directors, seven associates and twenty-eight
consultants. DWF in France (formally Heenan Paris) and Thomson
Wilks have been informally working together since January 2016.
This new association arrangement marks the next step in terms of
collaboration between the firms with exclusivity across their
respective locations.
Sir Nigel Knowles, Group CEO at DWF Group plc, said: "This is an
important step forward for us in developing our ability to support
our clients wherever they need us. Eldan Law and Thomson Wilks are
highly regarded firms in Singapore and South Africa and we have a
strong alignment in terms of expertise and sector focus. Like all
of our association relationships, this agreement will provide all
parties the opportunity to better serve existing and new clients,
whilst ensuring consistency, familiarity and quality across the
board.
"In Singapore, Eldan is a perfect fit for us in terms of the
areas we would like to focus on and provides a platform for our
core offerings such as insurance, litigation, corporate finance, as
well as our Mindcrest and Connected Services businesses. With
Thomson Wilks, we have a highly complementary offering in the
natural resources and energy sectors with our Paris team already
very active supporting clients across Africa.
"We will continue to build our presence globally through
acquisitions, associations and lateral hires and we are delighted
to be working with these two excellent businesses."
Daniel Koh, Joint Managing Partner at Eldan Law, said, "Eldan
Law is excited and honoured to embark on its second decade of
growth with this new association with DWF. This association with an
excellent progressive provider of integrated legal and business
services, which has an extensive global reach, is in line with
supporting our clients' increasing needs for legal services beyond
our shores."
Stephen Thomson, Director at Thomson Wilks, said, "Thomson Wilks
has enjoyed a long-standing working relationship first with Heenan
Paris and thereafter DWF. The natural progression to a formal
association with DWF is an exciting and welcome development. DWF is
an incredibly innovative organisation and this association aligns
perfectly with our own innovative approach. We are proud to be a
part of introducing DWF to South Africa."
