A North-East law firm has helped mobile phone company MonsterMob to acquire one of China's biggest providers of mobile content services.
Dickinson Dees, which employs more than 700 people in its Newcastle and Tees Valley offices, has overseen MonsterMob's acquisition of Atop Century as part of a deal worth more than £100m.
Jeremy Swift, corporate partner at Dickinson Dees, advised MonsterMob on the deal and handled the legal advice given by MonsterMob's Chinese lawyers.
Mr Swift said: "It's unusual for a firm outside the City to be involved in this sort of work, but we have the capacity to do this."
