✍️ Contract Drafting for New Projects
Even before new projects are commenced, I help clients ensure that their potential legal, commercial and practical risks are protected against and/or managed – by designing, planning, drafting, negotiating and closing‑out tenders in relation to the suite of contracts and related documentation for their projects.
⚖️ Consultation and Advisory Support for Ongoing Projects
During the lifecycle of projects, I help clients manage the entire gamut of issues and claims and claims that may arise – by formulating comprehensive dispute de‑escalation strategies and/or establishing critical documentary records (including the drafting of correspondence and project documentation) in order to protect their positions in the event that litigious proceedings are unavoidable subsequently.
👨⚖️ Dispute Resolution Proceedings
I represent clients in the resolution of their disputes with other stakeholders in contentious proceedings. I have appeared as Counsel before all levels of the Singapore courts (namely, the Court of Appeal, the Appellate Division of the High Court, the Singapore International Commercial Court, the High Court and the State Courts), in international and domestic arbitrations administered by most major arbitral institutions (e.g., SIAC, ICC, ICADR etc.) and in statutory adjudications under the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 2004. I help clients maximise their chances of success by leveraging on both my legal and technical know‑how, providing guidance on navigating each stage of the proceedings and formulating cost‑effective dispute resolution strategies (including the consideration of various alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as formal negotiation, mediation, expert determination or neutral evaluation).
