Greenberg Traurig Bolsters Asia M&A Team with Addition of Bee Chun Boo
EmitenTrust.com TOKYO, Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP strengthened its capabilities in Asia with the addition of Shareholder Bee Chun Boo, who has handled mergers & acquisitions (M&A) and private equity matters throughout the region for more than 28 years. She joins from Baker McKenzie's Singapore office.
Bee Chun has spent her career counseling clients on cross-border transactions from Singapore to Shanghai to Beijing, representing buyers and sellers in various sectors, including health care, energy, mining, and infrastructure. Her deep experience in the region allows her to advise clients on transactions involving multiple jurisdictions, regulatory regimes, and business cultures, serving as a guide for clients in North America, Latin America, and Africa looking to invest in the Asian market and Asian clients exploring opportunities abroad.
Bee Chun joins Greenberg Traurig's robust Corporate Practice and will work closely with the firm's lawyers in offices throughout the world.
"Our growth strategy has always focused on building an integrated global platform powered by exceptional local talent in the markets where our clients do business," Greenberg Traurig Vice Chair Richard A. Edlin said. "Bee Chun's arrival reflects that commitment, further positioning us to support businesses pursuing transformative opportunities throughout Asia and across the international marketplace. Her reputation, transactional experience, and market knowledge make her an outstanding addition to our team as we continue to support clients navigating the opportunities and complexities of cross-border growth and investment."
Since opening an office in Shanghai in 2008, Greenberg Traurig has added offices in Seoul, Tokyo, and Singapore, creating a regional network of lawyers working together and collaborating closely with the firm's offices worldwide.
"Asia continues to be one of the world's most dynamic centers of investment, innovation, and corporate activity, which is why we're strategically expanding our M&A Practice throughout the region," Greenberg Traurig Singapore Managing Shareholder Joseph Kim said. "The most significant transactions today rarely stop at national borders. They require teams that can draw on deep local knowledge while coordinating seamlessly across offices and regions. Bee Chun's addition reinforces our ability to provide that combination of local insight and global reach."
Bee Chun has advised a wide range of clients, including strategic investors, financial sponsors, and state-owned enterprises. Now, working with Greenberg Traurig's growing network in Asia, she will continue that work.
"I was attracted to Greenberg Traurig because of the firm's ambitious plans to continue growing its Asian practice," Bee Chun said. "I want to be part of those plans and believe that the firm's international platform and the close collaboration between its international offices will allow me to best serve clients looking to expand from, and invest into, the Asian market."
