Stephenson Harwood has expanded its international energy transition practice with the addition of partners Nick Dingemans and John Zadkovich, along with associate Lena Ow.
Daryll Ng, Singapore office managing partner at Stephenson Harwood, said: “Since identifying decarbonisation is a key strategic priority of the firm, we have been actively pursuing senior hires in this space. It’s unusual to be able to bring onboard a team of such experienced and highly regarded lawyers.”
Dingemans, a corporate and M&A specialist, brings with him experience in cross-border acquisitions, restructurings and joint ventures. His practice focuses on renewable energy, low-emission fuels and cleantech, aligning closely with the firm’s growing capabilities in decarbonisation. His professional background includes partner roles at Watson Farley & Williams and Norton Rose Fulbright.
Zadkovich, an expert in international disputes and arbitration, offers nearly two decades of experience in the energy transition, banking, finance and technology sectors.
The team previously worked at Penningtons Manches Cooper. Dingemans and Zadkovich have experience advising clients across Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
Jonathan Cripps, head of decarbonisation at Stephenson Harwood, said: “With Singapore’s push to be at the fore of sustainability – notably through the Singapore Green Plan 2030 – now is the ideal time to be adding bench strength in the region.”
