Raja Darryl & Loh maintains its rankings across the board this year, ably led by senior partner Chew Phye Keat, of whom a peer comments: "I have lots of respect for him." The firm provides an attentive and multi-faceted service to its clients. Through its strategic alliance with noted international firm Allens Arthur Robinson, the IP practice is able to protect and maintain its clients IP rights across international borders. A client recommends the firm for being "timely, professional and concise" in its service.
An example of the IP practice's cross-border expertise is its representation of a Malaysian food and beverage company that was attempting to distribute its products in Indonesia. In this continuing matter the client was prevented from distributing its products by a former importer on the basis of a dubious exclusive distributor agreement. A number of court actions had been filed and fought in the Indonesian courts to invalidate this agreement and to lift the restrictions.
