Hughes-Castell Ltd was the first legal recruitment consultancy to target Asia and began placing lawyers in Hong Kong in 1985. Hughes-Castell (HK) Ltd was established in 1986 and having been active in the Singapore market since 1993, we opened our branch office there in 2001. Our China practice has seen record growth and to build on our extensive client relationships, we opened our consultancy office in Beijing in 2005. Over the years, we have maintained our status as Asia’s premier legal recruiter, providing in-depth coverage of the Asia-Pacific region. Hughes-Castell has pioneered legal recruitment not only in Hong Kong, but also in Singapore, the PRC, Japan, Thailand and India. We have also undertaken assignments in Korea, Vietnam and Malaysia.

Our approach is to build long-term relationships and always strive to add value beyond pure recruitment. As professionals, we understand that each assignment is unique and tailor each search to suit the client's needs. Individual attention is combined with a team approach to maximise speed and efficiency without compromising our high standards.
