The RDL Dispute Resolution practice group is firmly entrenched as one of the leading dispute resolution teams among law firms in Malaysia. Our decades-long experience encompasses handling work for clients from diverse industry sectors, such as aviation, banking and financial institutions, consumer goods, hospitality, healthcare, infrastructure, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, media, technology and so forth. We appear regularly in the courts at all levels of the judicial system, as well as before arbitration tribunals and regulatory authorities.
Particular areas of dispute resolution practice that may well be outside the focus of many other firms can be said to be our strengths. Examples are medical negligence and healthcare, construction, media, aviation and technology.
The Medical and Healthcare law practice in the firm started almost 30 years ago and currently, it can be said that the team is a standard-bearer among legal firms.
The Construction dispute resolution practice team is arguably the largest Construction practice group among Malaysian law firms, vastly experienced in handling all types of disputes that arise in construction projects. Clients represent all categories of players in the construction and infrastructure sectors.
The Media practice group has been top-ranked by Media Law International consecutively since 2016.
