Norton Rose Fulbright's Singapore office celebrates 40 years
This year marks the 40th anniversary of Norton Rose Fulbright's Singapore office. Opened in 1982, Norton's Singapore office is one of the largest and longest-standing of any international law firm in the city.
The firm's Singapore team is widely recognised as a leader in banking and finance, dispute resolution, international arbitration, and corporate, M&A and securities across a range of industries, including aviation, energy, financial services, infrastructure and commodities, shipping, and technology.
In 2018, Norton Rose Fulbright entered into a Formal Law Alliance (FLA) with Ascendant Legal LLC. The FLA is in addition to the firm's local Qualifying Foreign Law Practice (QFLP). Norton Rose Fulbright is one of only two international laws firms in Singapore to have both a FLA and the QFLP.
In addition to the firm's focus on developing local talent and increasing access to careers in law, the Singapore office has recently revamped its trainee programme and dual qualification scheme by offering a new learning and training pathway for local graduates.
