The firm offers the full suite of legal services — advisory, disputes, regulatory and transactional work — through practice groups spanning corporate and financial services, intellectual property, technology and data, litigation and dispute resolution, regulatory matters, senior counsel, specialised practices and tax, along with a dedicated WPGrow practice for start-ups and venture capital.

Beyond Singapore, clients benefit from a vast network: an office in China, practices in India, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, and WPG, a regional law network of member firms in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Together, WPG brings the expertise of over 400 professionals to clients throughout the region. The firm is also a member of the World Law Group, one of the oldest and largest networks of leading law firms, and a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact.

Independent directories consistently rank the firm at the top of the profession — Band 1 in Chambers Asia-Pacific, Tier 1 in Chambers Global and top tier in The Legal 500 Asia Pacific — and in 2026 it was named International Arbitration Firm of the Year at the Benchmark Litigation Asia-Pacific & China Awards. Its ethos is summed up in its tagline: Winning Partnerships. Leading Excellence.

WongPartnership LLP: Marina Bay's Market-Leading Singapore Law Firm

WongPartnership LLP sits at the heart of Singapore's financial district, with its headquarters in Tower 3 of Marina Bay Financial Centre on Marina Boulevard. A market leader and one of the largest law firms in the country, it has grown from a home-grown Singapore partnership into a regional legal network. Its tagline — Winning Partnerships. Leading Excellence. — is both a slogan and a working method: the firm describes itself as building winning partnerships with clients and, just as deliberately, among its own people.

The firm is registered in Singapore as a limited liability partnership (UEN: T08LL0003B) under the Limited Liability Partnerships Act 2005, and its rapid rise to become one of Singapore's biggest firms is, by its own account, testament to the exceptional nature of its work.

Full-Spectrum Legal Expertise

WongPartnership's expertise spans the full suite of legal services: advisory, disputes, regulatory and transactional work. Its practice groups cover Corporate and Financial Services — including banking and finance, debt and equity capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, private equity, insurance, corporate real estate and real estate investment trusts — together with Intellectual Property, Technology & Data, International Practices, Litigation & Dispute Resolution, Regulatory, Senior Counsel, Specialised Practices and Tax. A dedicated WPGrow practice serves start-ups and venture capital.

The firm has been involved in landmark corporate transactions as well as complex and high-profile litigation and arbitration matters. Recent work highlights include advising Silicon Box, a Singapore-headquartered advanced semiconductor packaging company, on a US$228 million equity and debt financing.

Recognition at the Top of the Profession

Independent commentators consistently place the firm in the uppermost tier. Chambers Asia-Pacific ranks it as a Band 1 firm across most practices, Chambers Global as a Tier 1 firm across most practices, and The Legal 500 Asia Pacific as a top tier firm across its practices.

In July 2026, WongPartnership was named International Arbitration Firm of the Year at the Benchmark Litigation Asia-Pacific & China Awards held in Beijing, securing multiple significant wins at the same event. Days earlier, it became the first Asian law firm to be ranked in the Chambers Global Asset Tracing & Recovery (Law Firms) | Litigation Support 2026 Guide.

Clients quoted in those directories describe sound legal advice with a good grasp of commercial issues, and reliable client care that continues even after a transaction closes. Others note advice of an extremely high standard that remains very commercial and practical, and a firm that works tirelessly for the best legal and commercial outcome without compromising on its integrity.

How the Firm Works

Three commitments anchor the firm's culture. The first is outstanding client service: a collaborative, multi-disciplinary approach that brings together legal experts from across the firm so clients benefit from its breadth and depth of knowledge and experience. The second is innovation: constantly striving to break new ground and embracing technology to augment legal skills and bring new perspectives to traditional models of legal service. The third is nurturing talent, with people described as the firm's most important asset and the foundation on which its stellar reputation is built.

A Regional Network with Global Reach

From its Singapore base, the firm offers clients access to an extensive network: an office in China, practices in India, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, and WPG — a regional law network of member firms in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Together, WPG offers the expertise of over 400 professionals to meet the needs of clients throughout the region.

WongPartnership is also a member of the World Law Group, one of the oldest and largest networks of leading law firms, and a signatory member of the United Nations Global Compact, supporting the UNGC's Ten Principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.
