​DISPUTES RESOLUTION PRACTICE

​Our Disputes Resolution team has extensive experience in a wide variety of contentious matters, including but not limited to arbitration, banking & financial disputes, building & construction disputes, breach of directors’ duties claims, white collar crime, commercial and contractual disputes, contentious probates, criminal defence, defamation, employment disputes, family and matrimonial matters, insolvency, landlord & tenant disputes, MCST disputes, personal injury claims, professional negligence, shareholder disputes, and tortious claims.
 
We have handled numerous complex corporate and commercial disputes, and are regularly appointed to handle high-value contentious issues by MNCs, local and foreign corporations, established domestic SMEs, large family-run enterprises and high net-worth individuals. 

Our team has been instructed on the following notable matters:​​
  • Our lawyers were recently involved in a landmark banking law decision, where the Singapore Court of Appeal ruled in favor of our client. In this decision, the Court of Appeal also made the unprecedented comment that the bank's conduct in the transaction was "reprehensible". A Straits Times article reporting on this decision is set out below.

  • Recently involved in a significant arbitration law decision, where the Singapore High Court ruled in favour of our client. In this decision, the Singapore High Court used its inherent powers to stay court proceedings pending the outcome of a related arbitration, even though this meant not giving full effect to an agreement for the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Singapore.

    ​The prestigious UK 20 Essex Street Chambers reported on this decision. The link to the reporting is set out below.
