Dispute resolution

Macallo Harlin Mendrofa Advocates handles the full range of disputes, from commercial litigation to international arbitration and industrial relations disputes. The team is well versed in state administrative disputes and works with domestic and international clients in many cross-border battles. For example, the team has been involved in arbitration proceedings before domestic and international forums such as the Indonesian National Board of Arbitration, Singapore International Arbitration Centre and the International Chamber of Commerce. The employment practice routinely assists clients in negotiations and in securing out-of-court settlements. It has also represented clients in mass terminations involving hundreds of employees.

Managing partner Turangga Harlin and partner Kenny Macallo lead the dispute resolution practice group. Both have expertise in contentious commercial and white-collar crime matters, while Harlin also focuses on state administrative disputes and Macallo is a labour disputes specialist. Counsel Brian Manuel is also a seasoned expert for contentious commercial matters, arbitration and insolvency.

Last year, the team completed a cross-border dispute for the foreign affiliate of a local conglomerate related to a complex and indirect joint venture structure made through various loans and agreements.
