Biography

Katie Chung is an international disputes and arbitration lawyer based in Singapore.

With more than a decade of experience, Katie has advised and represented both private and state-owned clients in international arbitrations conducted under all major institutional and ad hoc arbitration rules. These disputes usually feature an Asian element, and involve a wide range of applicable laws and multijurisdictional parallel court proceedings.

Katie has extensive contentious experience in commodities, oil and gas, renewable energy and the power sector, and regularly advises on technology related disputes. She has also practised in Hong Kong and was seconded to an international oil major in Hong Kong.

Katie acts as lead counsel in international arbitrations, and regularly sits as an arbitrator, having accepted appointments in institutional arbitrations seated in Singapore or Hong Kong under the ICC, SIAC and HKIAC Rules. She is on the reserve panel of arbitrators of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC), the List of Arbitrators of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), the Panel of International Arbitrators of the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board (KCAB) and the Panel of Arbitrators of the Thailand Arbitration Centre (THAC).

Prior to joining the firm in June 2010, Katie worked for several years in a leading boutique litigation and arbitration firm.
