Linklaters has significantly enhanced its projects standing in the past few years, particularly following the relocation of John Maxwell to the Singapore office in 2023, along with the promotion of Mark Veitch to head of the construction group, and the election of project development and finance specialist Xylia Sim to the partnership in 2024. Offshore wind specialist Jia-Fang Lee was also elevated to counsel status in 2025. The Singapore group remains especially active in renewable energy projects, particularly offshore wind, and is also rated for transport infrastructure, waste-to-energy, petrochemicals and gas-fired projects; it remains noted for its presence in large-scale offshore wind projects throughout Asia Pacific, including the Hai Long 2 & 3 offshore wind projects in Taiwan. Active across Southeast Asia and North Asia, the Singapore team frequently works alongside colleagues in other Asia Pacific offices, particularly its formal association with Widyawan & Partners in Jakarta.
