Litigation

The careful analysis and preparation that we devote to our clients’ matters have resulted in a good track record in the litigation cases that we have represented our clients at all levels from the Subordinate Courts to the Court of Appeal.

Our successful litigation includes defending the validity of a lease for a landlord (now a landmark case); acting for a shopping centre in claiming deduction of advertising and promotion expenses for property tax purposes; defending a claim to rescind a Sale and Purchase contract for property on the ground of misrepresentation; defending a claim of oppression in the management of the affairs of a company and claiming commission in a case determined largely on oral evidence.

Below are some of the Singapore High Court and Court of Appeal cases in which the partners have successfully represented clients as counsel or co-counsel in recent years: -
