Briscoe will join Clifford Chance’s Singapore asset finance team as a partner in the autumn and will head up the Magic Circle firm’s Asian aviation practice. He joined Norton Rose in 1995 and became a partner with the top 10 City outfit in 1997.
The news comes after Legal Week reported last month that Clifford Chance is to launch a new India practice group based at its Singapore arm, which will focus on its capital markets group and is to include six Indian-trained lawyers from the Hong Kong and Singapore offices. London capital markets partner Edward Bradley is to relocate to Singapore in September to help build the team.
