Enho Lim

Additionally, he has provided legal advise on a wide range of commercial issues related to proposed company acquisitions, asset transactions, and real estate matters.

Some of Enho’s Notable Achievements are as follows:

  • Acted as counsel for a developer, defending against and counterclaiming over 30 parties in a complex contractual dispute totalling RM13 million. This case encompassed allegations of fraudulent claims, improper transfers, conspiracy, and breaches of fiduciary duties.

  • Successfully advised and acted on behalf of a Public Listed Company, in the acquisition of the full equity stake of a third-party company, for the sum of RM215.59 million.

  • Acted as counsel at the Court of Appeal, Malaysia in a landmark case involving a director of seven Public Listed Companies against a US-based investment firm. The case involves matters such as the interpretation of the Arbitration Act 2005, the applicability of ad-interim injunctions and mandatory injunctions for assets exceeding RM7 million in Malaysia. Subsequently, the case proceeded to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre, addressing disputes arising from a disguised moneylending agreement camouflaged as a sham loan.

  • Represented an automotive parts supplier in a substantial legal action against multiple insurance companies, pursuing a comprehensive claim amounting to RM60 million. This legal action arose from the insurers' refusal to honour the supplier's claims, stemming from the complete loss of their warehouse due to a fire incident.

  • Defended a director of a private company against an RM32 million claim initiated by a local bank in Malaysia. The case was appealed to the hilt whereby the Federal Court has granted the leave to appeal considering the letter of Guarantee and Indemnity was misplaced due to the absence of a Certificate of Indebtedness.

  • Acted for a foreign client in an AIAC arbitration with a seat in Kuala Lumpur involving a shareholders’ dispute with a local shareholder.

  • Acted for Malaysia's largest battery and charger supplier for a UNCITRAL Arbitration with a seat of arbitration in AIAC against a utility provider involving disputes arising from contractual disputes and default in payment to uphold an arbitral award.

  • Acted for a local company in an AIAC arbitration against the Government Agency involving one of the largest quantum of dispute under KLRCA Arbitration Rules involving non-payment of variation works under the contract and wrongful termination to avoid payment and deception.
