Full-service firm BR Law Corporation has its roots in litigation, stretching back for more than 30 years. The firm started out as Bernard and Rada Law Corporation and rebranded in 2018. Each litigation partner has at least 26 years’ experience across various commercial dispute areas. These include contract, corporate governance, property, defamation, employment and breach of trust disputes, among others. Its contentious family and matrimonial practice has been very active in the past year. The team is well versed in domestic and international arbitration matters, advising clients on and crafting dispute resolution clauses, conducting proceedings before arbitral tribunals and enforcing and collecting arbitral awards.
Managing director Bernard Doray and senior director Soon Yien Foo lead the disputes group at the firm. Other key contacts include senior consultant S Radakrishnan and directors Sivakumar Ponnampalam and Daniel Loh.
In a recent highlight, the team acted for the plaintiff liquidator of BIT Baltic Investment & Trading in an action against a former director of the company for breach of his director’s duties in relation to unfair preference payments made by the company to related companies. The Court of Appeal’s decision is significant as it expounds on the minimum objective standard of care imposed on all directors, whether executive or non-executive.
