Skrine's practice is structured across distinct real estate and construction teams that handle a range of transactional and contentious matters. The real estate team advises on high-profile property acquisitions, developments, and hotel management, while the construction practice offers an integrated service spanning the entire project lifecycle, from front-end advisory to dispute resolution. The practice is led by Lee Ai Hsian, who handles debt and project financing surrounding real estate transactions, with Jesy Ooi bolstering the team’s capabilities in complex acquisitions and joint ventures. The construction leadership reflects its dual focus; Richard Khoo handles non-contentious project development, while the contentious side is co-led by Ivan Loo, who is active as both counsel and an arbitrator, and Ashok Kumar Mahadev Ranai, who has expertise in infrastructure and energy disputes. Subramaniam Tatvaruban is another notable name in the practice.
