Rosli Dahlan Saravana Partnership handles both contentious and non-contentious IP mandates, demonstrating particular strength in matters involving infringement, passing off, domain names, breach of confidence, and rectification and invalidation proceedings. The team also assists clients with the registration and protection of trade marks, patents, industrial designs, and copyrights, alongside branding strategies, portfolio management, and the commercial exploitation of IP rights. The team is led by a capable trio: Michael Soo Chow Ming, former practice head of the Shook Lin & Bok IP team, who joined the firm in February 2025; Bahari Yeow Tien Hong, who is lauded for his ‘remarkable depth of knowledge and expertise’ across all areas of IP; and Lim Zhi Jian, the go-to for implementing strategies for monetising IP.
