International Arbitration

Our International Arbitration practice is recognised as an industry leader both domestically and regionally. We are also highly experienced in alternative dispute resolution matters. Our dynamic team has acted in arbitrations under all major institutional rules, in both common and civil law jurisdictions. We have the commercial proficiency and technical know-how to tackle the most complex of disputes. Our recent experience includes railways, highways, bridges, mixed developments, skyscrapers, shopping malls, hospitals, housing schemes, land reclamation schemes, airport facilities, port and jetty facilities, petrochemical facilities and electricity generation plants (both conventional and renewable).

In particular, we have an intimate understanding of the Malaysian energy sector, gained through our experience in advising and representing key energy sector players in contentious and non-contentious matters, as well as our partner’s extended secondment to a leading independent power producer. We also represent several Chinese state-owned entities in disputes arising from the construction of infrastructure projects and skyscrapers in Malaysia.

No two disputes are the same. With our diverse pool of industry knowledge, we are able to provide tailored insight and advice, meeting every challenge with a commercially driven solution.

Our practitioners are consistently ranked as top-tier by Chambers and Partners, Legal 500 Asia Pacific and Asialaw Profiles.
