Law.com - Gibson Dunn Makes Singapore Debut With Jones Day Hires
This article is illustrative of a number of current trends in the globalizing practice of law. Notice the mobility of the players. Many have moved from other firms recently, and there is also considerable mobility within their current firm. Also, Gibson Dunn is using Singapore primarily as a surrogate for India. There is no indication that Gibson Dunn will be pursuing a local Singapore practice, other than a mention that Singapore has become an important financial center, which does not really imply a local practice.
