Dispute resolution

Work highlights 

Successfully represented Supreme Power Auto in a RM57.5 million ($13.6 million) insurance claim dispute following a major warehouse fire in August 2012. The 37-day trial, concluded in March 2025, focused on disproving allegations of deliberate arson. Through expert testimony and detailed analysis of fire patterns, the legal team effectively demonstrated the accidental nature of the fire, securing a favourable judgment that upheld the client's insurance policy claims.
