We undertake all aspects of litigation in BVI and Cayman Islands courts, shareholders disputes, fraud and asset tracing/enforcement and contentious trusts disputes. Our restructuring and insolvency group leads the offshore market in both global reach and expertise. We advise lenders and investors at all levels of the capital structure, corporates and insolvency officeholders.

Founded in Hong Kong in 1874, Leigh & Orange (L&O) is a well-established international architectural design practice operating throughout China, Hong Kong and the Middle East, and has continued to thrive as a significant force in the markets it has served for nearly a century and a half by providing its clients with a consistent focus on quality.  With an unsurpassed depth of experience, the firm prides itself on balancing knowledge and innovation based on every client’s needs. 

The firm’s broad oeuvre includes commercial and retail developments, theme parks, recreational and hospitality facilities, medical, laboratory and health services buildings, business parks, data and technology centres, sports, equestrian and veterinary facilities, private clubs and residences, transportation facilities and infrastructure, education buildings, interiors and masterplanning schemes. 

L&O’s passion for design has continued to drive us for creating exciting outcomes for projects across Asia. Hospitality projects and the new Tharabar Gate in Bagan celebrate different strands of the history and Myanmar’s culture.  Our proposals for the LetsRun Park international competition proposed a uniquely South Korean fusion of entertainment by linking a theme park with thoroughbred racing.   

We are proud that such projects are recognised for their excellence by our peers. In the Middle East, the iconic Al Shaqab Equestrian Complex is considered as one of the finest equestrian facilities. Also in Qatar the Multipurpose Administration Complex at Ras Laffan Industrial City has received recognition as Best City Development at the Arab Investment Summit. 

L&O continues to develop its expertise and scope – as demonstrated by the recent opening of our Greater Bay Region office in Qianhai, Shenzhen – and the firm embraces burgeoning opportunities offered by the Belt and Road Initiative.
