DLA Piper’s Singapore corporate head Sheela Moorthy has left the firm to join Norton Rose Fulbright, making this the fourth partner exit from the base since mid-2012.

DLA now has just four partners permanently on the ground in the city-state, namely India specialist Biswajit Chatterjee, ex-Norton Rose restructuring partner Troy Doyle, ex-Shearman arbitrator Yu-Jin Tay, as well as insurance specialist and Singapore managing partner John Goulios.
