Director, Dispute Resolution

Alex has an active disputes practice. His counsel and representation are increasingly sought after by many. Alex routinely advises on commercial matters, private client matters and employment matters. He has represented clients before the Singapore Courts and international arbitral tribunals. Clients include multinational corporations, SMEs, C-suite and high net worth individuals.

Clients prize Alex for his unflinchingly clear-eyed analysis of their key commercial and personal interests in any dispute, as well as his pragmatic and strategic insights. Since joining Drew, he has been praised by clients for being “very smart in his moves”, “excellent” and “efficient”.
