Founded in 2002, Oon & Bazul LLP is one of Singapore’s fastest growing law firms as recognised by Asian Legal Business. The firm is a large leading commercial practice and our lawyers are known for their ability to deliver high quality work as well as their commitment to helping clients achieve success.
Asian Expertise
Outside of Singapore, the firm’s Asian Expertise starts with our Malaysian associate firm, TS Oon & Partners in Kuala Lumpur, with whom we work closely on matters in Malaysia and involving Malaysian law. Apart from Malaysia, our strategy is to work with the best lawyers throughout Asia without exclusive tie-ups, to ensure that we can always engage the most suitable professionals in the required practice area regardless of which firms they come from.
Apart from English, our lawyers are also fluent in several languages including Mandarin, Bahasa Melayu, Bahasa Indonesia, Tamil, Japanese and Korean so as to bridge language and cultural barriers in major non-English speaking Asian countries.
Global Reach
The firm has a sterling international law practice dealing with matters across continents which has led our lawyers to be particularly adept at coordinating matters involving multiple jurisdictions. We have also developed an extensive informal network of law firms whom we have worked with over the years.
Our clientele includes sovereign states, Fortune Global 500 corporations, large multinational corporations, financial institutions and high net worth individuals.
Our People
Our partners, associates and staff come from many different cultures and backgrounds. We believe our diversity strengthens us. It allows us to intuitively appreciate the cultural differences and sensitivities of our clients and the many different environments they operate in. Our diversity gives us many cherished viewpoints that help us better understand our circumstances, recognise trends and anticipate the future. As a people organization, we strive to provide a dynamic and intellectually stimulating environment for our people, challenging them to achieve their full potential professionally and personally. We reward our people well and invest in those who deserve it. As an ambitious firm with a blueprint in place for growth, we are on the constant lookout for top talent with a long-term view of retention and career advancement.
