Fulbright promotes two partners in Hong Kong

Fulbright & Jaworski has elevated nine senior associates and four senior counsel from core practice areas to join the firm’s global partnership.

Two of the new partners are based in Hong Kong, Zhang Jie of the corporate group and Ben McQuhae of the energy & real estate group.

Both have experience in advising multinational clients in oil & gas-related transactions and projects. However, Zhang handles M&A transactions, joint ventures, cross-border investments and structured finance, primarily involving the People’s Republic of China, while McQuhae’s practice has a clear focus on oil & gas, coal and other energy-related transactions in Asia.
