RHTLaw Asia is known for commercial disputes work, including claims in court and domestic and international arbitration proceedings. The firm is also active in matrimonial disputes and has a strong criminal litigation team.
Core members of the dispute resolution leadership include partners Nandakumar Renganathan, Sharon Chong and Anil Changaroth. Senior counsel Leslie Chew acts a senior consultant on the team.
Renganathan and his team continue to act for two publicly listed Singapore companies and a former political office holder of a foreign country in a claim for defamation against a local academic who writes on corporate governance issues. The novelty of this matter is that there are no reported case precedents on the appropriate damages to be awarded for listed companies in a defamation proceeding.
