Insolvency and Recoveries

 

Whether business or personal, any dispute can be stressful and disruptive.

In today’s environment of global competition and heightened regulation, commercial disputes and the resulting litigation are increasingly difficult to avoid. These disputes are an unwelcome distraction from business life and need to be resolved as effectively and quickly as possible.

 

Personal disputes, whether stemming from private or business dealings, are often emotionally charged. In such cases, the law can be complex, and it may be difficult for individuals to maintain objectivity. This is where clear, strategic legal guidance from the outset becomes essential.

 

At Lim & Yeoh, we act swiftly to assess the facts and lay out the available options. We adopt a tailored approach to dispute resolution—whether aggressive or measured—based on the nature of the issue and the best interests of our clients. Litigation is not always our default solution; many of our successes are quietly achieved through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution.

 

We handle a wide range of complex and often sensitive disputes—both domestic and international—across a broad spectrum of industries. Our network of technical experts allows us to provide well-rounded legal solutions in areas such as bank recoveries, fraud investigations and defence, white-collar crime, employment disputes, directors’ and shareholders’ liability, minority shareholder actions, insolvencies and corporate reorganisations, insurance disputes, trade finance disputes, breach of contract, property and construction contracts, partnership disputes, tax investigations, regulatory and commercial issues.
