Tan Rajah & Cheah is a big player in the market thanks to the presence of the immensely experienced and highly-rated Chelva Retnam Rajah SC, who was appointed senior counsel back in 1998 and is ‘among the top choices for any serious white-collar crime matter’. The firm continues to be appointed in significant cases including defending five former town councillors in a headline action brought by Aljunied-Hougang Town Council and Pasir-Ris Punggol Town Council. The wider team also has significant big-case experience including those before the Court of Appeal and the SICC. Megan Chia is also rated.
