Charles Russell Speechlys makes first Partner promotion in Singapore and moves to One Raffles Quay
Charles Russell Speechlys today announces the promotion of Timmoney Ng to Partner in the International Tax team in Singapore. This is the Singapore office’s first Partner promotion and coincides with a move from the Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC) to a new office in One Raffles Quay.
Timmoney joined the Firm in April 2024 as a Legal Director, as part of a newly added International Tax team alongside Partners Ivan Lu and Kurt Rademacher and Senior Associate Hara Kee. Since joining the Firm, he has been an integral part of the team, advising a variety of clients on US tax matters from companies and funds, to investors and entrepreneurs.
Timmoney is a specialist US tax lawyer whose practice focuses on international startup companies, fund investors and large multinational corporations in the tech, life sciences, semiconductor and crypto/blockchain spaces.
The Singapore office is also celebrating its first anniversary. Timmoney’s promotion and the office move demonstrate the continued expansion of our Asia practice, which over the last few years has seen significant headcount growth as well as strong year-on-year revenue increases.
Jeffrey Lee, Partner and Head of our Singapore office, comments:
Timmoney has been an invaluable member of the Firm since joining, and delivers exceptional service to clients on complex matters. We’d like to extend the warmest congratulations to him on his promotion – it is very well deserved.
Since our launch in July 2023, we have been intently focused on establishing a stronger presence in the market. It is fantastic to see the growth of our office materialising, not just in Timmoney’s promotion, but also the wider appointment of the International Tax team and the hire of Peter Brabant into our dispute resolution team. Our office is on a clear and exciting upward trajectory.
Simon Green, Partner and Head of Asia, comments:
We have had a strong first year of operations in Singapore and the office has made a significant contribution to our recent financial results (where we reported a 30% revenue increase across Asia). I am excited about our move to new offices as I see it as a real statement of intent about what we hope to achieve in the Singapore market. I also want to congratulate Timmoney on his well deserved promotion, which will further enhance our offering and adds to the momentum that we are building in Asia.
Timmoney Ng, Partner, comments:
It’s a privilege to be stepping up to join the Firm’s partnership, and especially so to be doing so at a time of such growth. There is so much opportunity to be had in Asia, and I have been particularly impressed with the collaborative approach taken by everybody in the Firm. I look forward to continuing to serve my clients in my new role.
