LCWP is described by Jern-Fei Ng KC of 7BR as “an exciting new venture that is helmed by three leaders of the Malaysian Bar.” The three partners have been hailed as “counsel of choice in many bet-the-company cases, whose smooth but confident style of advocacy can calm the most troubled waters”, “one of the fastest-rising stars” for commercial disputes with “an innate ability to come up with out-of-the-box solutions to complex problems” and “meticulous and pragmatic.” Breakpoint LLC partner KC Lye says the LCWP founders “have always impressed me with their strategic approach, care for detail and infectious enthusiasm.” Nathalie Ker is LCWP’s newest partner, and was part of the original founding team.
