Grandall Law Firm taps into the Malaysia business, making Richard Wee Chambers its affiliated firm in Kuala Lumpur.
This is the sixth offshore office the mainland firm Grandall has set up, adding to branches in Hong Kong, Paris, Madrid, New York and Stockholm.
After forming ties, Richard Wee Chambers will retain its English name but change its Chinese name to “国浩律师（马来西亚）事务所”, which translates to Grandall Law (Malaysia) Firm.
Earlier this year, Grandall’s counsel Will Fung joined Richard Wee Chambers as a principal partner.
Fung is a specialist in M&A, as well as investment and financing. He was a former chairman of the Malaysian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in China from 2017 to 2022.
Currently, the Kuala Lumpur office has five partners, including managing partner Richard Wee. The firm offers consultations on cross-border transactions, covering areas such as technology, telecommunications, new energy, semiconductors, logistics and property management.

Hengdu Law Offices expanded its presence in Seoul and Lahore in Pakistan. DeHeng Law Offices expanded to Tokyo. Han Kun Law Offices established an office in New York in December, while JunHe did the same in Seattle in January this year.
