53. Transitional provision for foreign law practices

Despite rules 52(6), 57(8) and 59(10), a Qualifying Foreign Law Practice or licensed foreign law practice which has become a constituent foreign law practice of a Joint Law Venture may, except as otherwise agreed with the constituent Singapore law practice in the Joint Law Venture, continue to provide as a Qualifying Foreign Law Practice or licensed foreign law practice (as the case may be) legal services for which instructions were received by that Qualifying Foreign Law Practice or licensed foreign law practice (as the case may be) before the date of issue of the Joint Law Venture licence.
