昃律师拥有超过20年的丰富执业经验，他善于为中国国有企业、主权财富基金和私营公司就其大型复杂的跨境并购、基础设施项目、私募股权交易、投资基金、合资企业和企业融资事务提供法律意见。
在2013年加入安睿顺德伦之前，他也曾先后服务于史密夫斐尔律师事务所、吉布森律师事务所以及世达国际律师事务所。
罗夏信大中华区管理合伙人郭懿玲律师表示：“昃律师的加入是本所继续投入中国地区和服务中国客户的战略承诺的重要一步。能够吸引到昃律师这样优秀的律师加入，证明了我们现有的业务实力，这也帮助我们努力将本地区的公司业务服务提升到新的水平。”
在今年7月，ALB得到安睿顺德伦确认，该所表示“目前正在重新审视北京办公室的策略之中，但尚未做出任何有关其未来的决定”。

Stephenson Harwood adds corporate practice partner from Eversheds Sutherland
London-based Stephenson Harwood has strengthened its corporate practice in London after hiring partner Jay Ze from Eversheds Sutherland.
Prior to joining Stephenson Harwood, Ze was the head of China corporate practice and Beijing office managing partner at Evershed.
Ze has more than two decades of experience advising Chinese state-owned enterprises, sovereign wealth funds and private companies on their large and complex cross-border mergers and acquisitions, infrastructure projects, private equity transactions, investment funds, joint ventures and corporate finance matters.
Prior to joining Eversheds in 2013, Ze worked at Herbert Smith Freehills, Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom respectively.
"Jay's joining is a significant step in the firm's strategic commitment to continue to invest in the region and with PRC clients. Being able to attract a lawyer of Jay's calibre demonstrates the strength of our existing practice, while simultaneously supporting our efforts to take our corporate offering in the region to the next level," said Evangeline Quek, Greater China managing partner at Stephenson Harwood.
In July this year, Eversheds has confirmed to ALB that the firm is currently reviewing whether to keep its Beijing office open, while also making plans to reestablish an office in Singapore.
