CHERN & CO. is a boutique commercial disputes firm. This is not a general practice. We do not spread ourselves across every area of law. We are focused, deliberately, on commercial litigation and disputes.

Our work centres on businesses and the conflicts that arise from commercial relationships, including contractual breakdowns, shareholder disagreements, recovery actions, and high-stakes disputes where the outcome has real commercial consequence.

We also advise on commercial contract drafting, approached not as transactional work, but through the lens of litigators who understand how contracts are tested, challenged, and ultimately decided in court.

We take on matters where focus, precision, and commercial judgment matter. That is the only kind of work we do. And it is what we do well.

CHERN & CO. was recognised as a finalist for Dispute Resolution Boutique Law Firm of the Year at the Asian Legal Business (ALB) Thomson Reuters Malaysia Law Awards. This was followed by further regional recognition at the ALB Thomson Reuters Southeast Asia Law Awards 2025, where the firm was shortlisted in multiple categories alongside leading regional firms, including Rising Law Firm of the Year and Dispute Resolution Boutique Law Firm of the Year.

Your Matter. Our Focus.

When you instruct CHERN & CO., your matter is handled with full attention and not processed as one of many. You will know who is on your file, you will hear from us directly, and you will not be left chasing updates.

We work efficiently, communicate plainly, and focus on moving your matter forward. Nothing more complicated than that.

How We Work

We are selective about the matters we take on. When you approach us, we will assess your matter honestly and advise whether we are the right fit. If we are not, we will tell you so directly.

When we do take on a matter, you have our full attention. We do not overcommit, and we do not take on work we cannot do well.
