Minter Ellison

While it does handle some financial services advisory work, including in the context of transactions in the sector, Minter Ellison is undoubtedly best-known for its contentious expertise. Nathan Dentice has expertise handling high-stakes investigations/enforcement actions and as regularly assists clients in securities regulatory matters before the SFC and HKMA. The vastly experienced Desmond Yu is also key to the firm’s success for clients facing regulatory investigations/enforcement actions, including as it relates to alleged market misconduct/insider dealing infractions. Jun Kwong‘s recently obtained qualification to practice as a Greater Bay Area lawyer also enhances the team’s ability to handle matters with a nexus to China. Other key contacts include Cordelia Yu, who as well as her experience for regulators and industry bodies in the insurance sector, is also well-versed in crypto-related regulatory matters, and the vastly experienced David Morrison, whose practice spans civil and criminal liability, as well as regulatory agency investigations.
