Melissa is a partner in our Intellectual Property practice. She has a focus on dispute resolution and has led as counsel in various intellectual property and commercial disputes. In one such case, she represented a footwear producer to obtain a trade description order from the High Court, on the back of which the authorities carried out a raid leading to the seizure of over 70,000 infringing items.
Other notable IP disputes in which she was part of the core teams acting include the first-ever patent appeal taken up to the Malaysian Federal Court as well as one of the most publicized franchise disputes in Malaysia to date.
With a keen interest on novel and developing products, she advises also on regulatory & compliance for pharmaceuticals, medical devices & food and, increasingly, in the areas of product liability & investigations.
