Practice Areas
I am a partner in our Intellectual Property group in Singapore and with more than 30 years in practice I have developed a specialist focus on complex patent litigation and other contentious IP related cases.
Today I represent major software companies, computer manufacturers, well known trade mark owners, pharmaceutical companies, book publishers, international airlines and well known hotel chains, as well as collection agencies and advertising agencies. I also represent a number of our Japanese clients.
I am regularly engaged in complex patent litigation and other contentious IP-related cases, and have been involved in a number of high profile IP cases before the Singapore Court of Appeal, as well as handling multi-jurisdictional IP litigation.
