White & Case drops friend to go it alone in Singapore

Again and again. W&C shifts back and forth every few years between their desire to match the profitability of the top Wall St. firms and to be a full-service international firm, practicing local law where permitted. They appear hopelessly confused. To an outsider, they do much better at the latter than the former. None of their Asian partners would be leading lights on Wall St., or even close. Their associate base is even weaker than their partners. Now for the second time they have shed their Singapore "partner" and jettisoned Bangkok and jakarta to boot.
