I have worked with Rohan Arasoo Jeyabalah and his team from this practice on numerous cases. I feel that they provide a very efficient and user friendly service, something which one doesn’t always find in other firms. I would also mention that the quality of work produced is always very good.
The team have a varied skill-set and relevant experience in managing litigation matters of different complexities. There is sufficient in-house resources to meet our requirements insofar as legal opinions, strategy setting and the actual legal work.
HLP distinguish themselves as primarily a construction boutique practice and they are very active in the field, having several notable items in case law under their belt.
