International law firm Addleshaw Goddard has bolstered its Global Infrastructure practice in the ASEAN region by appointing Danna ER as a partner in its Singapore office. Danna, a dual-qualified lawyer in New York and Singapore, brings extensive expertise in high-value international arbitrations, court proceedings, mediations, and adjudications across Infrastructure, Energy, and Construction projects in Asia.
Danna’s appointment is part of Addleshaw Goddard’s AG2030 international growth strategy, which aims to expand the firm’s presence in key markets, including Korea. Her experience includes advising on contract documentation to mitigate dispute risks, and she joins from Eldan Law, a top-tier Singapore construction law firm. Previously, she worked with Pinsent Masons and Clyde & Co.
Recognised as a leading lawyer in construction and commercial disputes by directories such as Legal 500 and Benchmark Litigation, Danna’s arrival complements the recent appointment of construction and energy disputes partner Chanaka Kumarasinghe. This brings the number of partners in Addleshaw Goddard’s Singapore office to five.
Chanaka Kumarasinghe, Head of the Singapore office, expressed enthusiasm about Danna’s addition, stating, “We are delighted that Danna has joined us in Singapore, bringing with her over 15 years of experience in the construction sector, both domestic and international.”
Jonathan Tattersall, Head of Asia at Addleshaw Goddard, added, “Danna is someone we have admired for a long time and will help continue AG’s growth in Singapore and Asia more broadly.”
Danna’s appointment coincides with Addleshaw Goddard’s ongoing expansion, including the recent opening of its 20th office in Warsaw. This growth aligns with the firm’s AG2030 strategy, targeting £1 billion in revenue over the next five years.
