ALB's Offshore Client Choice list highlights the top offshore lawyers in Asia who have established the strongest client connections and who are known for their ability to handle complex cross-border matters with outstanding results. This year, Kate and Amelia are among just 10 offshore lawyers recognised by ALB.

Kate Lan, counsel in Carey Olsen's litigation, insolvency and restructuring practice, has extensive experience advising clients across a wide range of cross-border litigation and international arbitration matters. Kate has been included in ALB's Offshore Client Choice list for four consecutive years and is ranked as a Leading Associate in Legal 500 Asia Pacific, where she is described as "a hard-hitting senior lawyer who is a determined fighter for her client’s interests, always going the extra mile". 

Singapore counsel Amelia Tan has a broad range of experience in commercial litigation, with a focus on multi-jurisdictional shareholder litigation, corporate disputes, fraud and asset tracing, and cross-border insolvency and restructuring matters. Amelia has been consistently named a Leading Associate by Legal 500 Asia Pacific since 2023 and has featured in ALB's Offshore Client Choice for three consecutive years. Clients have described Amelia as an "outstanding individual within Carey Olsen" who "has the gift of making everything seem straightforward and simple, which belies the very hard work she puts into preparing every brief". 

Kate commented: "It is a real honour to be recognised once again as a top offshore lawyer by ALB. This acknowledgement reflects the trust our clients place in us and the strength of the collaborative, cross-border work we do as a team". 

Amelia added: "This recognition would not be possible without the support of our clients and peers. At Carey Olsen, we consistently strive to deliver the highest standard of client service, and it is wonderful to see this reflected with positive client feedback and strong market recognition".
