Dentons Rodyk Boosts Private Wealth Expertise with Key Partner Hire Focused on HNW Chinese Clients

Dentons Rodyk has recently enhanced its team by recruiting Linda Bai Lu, a distinguished private wealth professional formerly of Taxise Asia, as their latest partner addition this year.

Bai, who led the China private client division at Taxise Asia, brings her expertise as a China-qualified lawyer to strengthen the firm’s offerings in private wealth, family office services, and tax, particularly catering to the requirements of Chinese clients in Singapore. Her background includes advising high-net-worth individuals and families from China on wealth and estate management, tax matters, and assisting Chinese corporate clients with their investments abroad through Singapore.

Before her time at Taxise in 2021, Bai held a senior associate position at Rajah & Tann for over two years, focusing on tax, private client services, and trusts, following her experiences at KPMG and RSM Chio Lim in tax consultancy roles.

Loh Kia Meng, the Chief Operating Officer of Dentons Rodyk, has expressed that Bai's appointment significantly enhances the firm’s capabilities in Chinese law and augments their ability to deliver comprehensive solutions to Chinese investors in Singapore and elsewhere.

With Bai joining the firm, Dentons Rodyk's partner count in Singapore has reached 94, including Alexander Lee, a litigation partner who rejoined the firm late the previous year.
