Kennedys has hired a team of motor and general insurance lawyers from Withers KhattarWong in Singapore. Partners Patrick Yeo and Lim Hui Ying are joined by an associate, paralegal and support staff. Yeo has been with KhattarWong since 1996, when he was admitted to the Singapore bar, and has been an equity partner since 2006. He became a senior equity partner after the firm’s merger to become Withers KhattarWong in 2015. Lim joined KhattarWong after being admitted to the Singapore Bar in 2004 and became a junior equity partner in 2016. The team’s work is largely focused on motor insurance matters, covering contentious litigation and alternative dispute resolution at all levels of the Singapore courts. In particular, the team specialises in combatting fraudulent injury claims stemming from low-speed vehicle collisions, along with issues of constructive total loss, vehicular collision damage claims for plant and machinery, and dispute work for suspected drink-driving cases. They also specialise in policy coverage and disputes and regularly advise and act for insurers for both contentious and non-contentious policy issues or disputes.
