Firm overview
Established in 1905, Shearn Delamore & Co. is one of Malaysia’s leading law firms. With more than 100 lawyers and 230 staff, the firm has the resources and capabilities to handle complex projects, transactions and matters, including cross-border transactions that require coordination with foreign and international law firms. The firm is also part of the Drew Network Asia regional alliance with Drew & Napier from Singapore and Makarim & Taira S from Indonesia.
By combining our diverse experience and interdisciplinary collaborations, we are able to provide a complementary range of skills. The firm maintains extensive global network links with foreign law firms and multilateral agencies, including the World Law Group (WLG), the World Services Group (WSG) and the Employment Law Alliance (ELA). Shearn Delamore & Co. formed an alliance with Drew & Napier LLC from Singapore, Martinez Vergara & Gonzalez Sociedad from the Philippines, Makarim & Taira S. from Indonesia, and Tilleke & Gibbins from Thailand to launch a formidable blue-chip legal network named Drew Network Asia (DNA). DNA is a ‘firm of firms’ that operates as a united collective, bringing both international perspectives and local expertise to the table. If regional co-ordination is required for any transaction or project, we can draw upon the resources of and can work together with some of Asia’s best law firms.
