Representative work

The matters we handle.

A sense of the work the firm is engaged on across its core areas. Detail provided on enquiry, subject to client confidentiality.

01

David and Goliath

Acted for a local SME pursuing a commercial claim against an international multinational — a matter where careful strategy counted for far more than size. The client successfully recovered its claim.

02

Holding the line on payment

Acted for a developer resisting an unreasonable payment claim from its main contractor under the Security of Payment Act — from the adjudication response and submissions through to review.

03

Structuring for growth

Advised a company through a corporate restructuring — drafting its shareholders' agreement, commercial contracts, and cross-border arrangements to put the business on solid footing.

04

Counsel to counsel

Instructed by an international law firm to provide Singapore-law advice on PDPA obligations, data-breach and incident response, and the regulatory and privilege questions that follow — for the firm to rely on in advising its own client.

05

From six figures to nominal

Defended a former employee and her company against a breach-of-confidence and conspiracy claim — reducing an exposure of over S$100,000 to S$3,000 in nominal damages, with the claim against the company dismissed.

06

Compliance by design

Advised a payments company on risk, regulatory, and compliance matters across the payments industry — including the cross-border dimensions of building and operating the business.

Notes & commentary.

Occasional notes on developments relevant to the firm's practice and the questions clients most often ask.

PDPA breach notification: the first 72 hours
Data & CyberNote

PDPA breach notification: the first 72 hours

When a data breach hits, the clock starts at once. When notification to the PDPC and affected individuals is required, the timelines that bind you, and the calls a board has to make before the facts are even clear.

When an employee leaves with your data
