Selected Client Observations
We engaged Corvus Legal to review a syndicated facility agreement for a property acquisition. The team came back with observations on three covenant terms that our internal team had not flagged. The explanations were clear and the recommended language changes were practical — nothing that was going to hold up the transaction.

We had a trademark matter that had been sitting unresolved for over a year with our previous advisers. Siow Lin reviewed our portfolio, told us plainly which marks were worth pursuing and which were not, and gave us a clear recommended path. The written recommendation she provided was detailed and genuinely useful — we could actually act on it.

We are a financial institution and we brought Corvus Legal in to review the security documentation for a portfolio of loans. The work was methodical, the timeline was met, and the issues identified were material ones, not just observations included to fill the report. We have continued to use them for similar reviews since.

Our company needed a compliance review covering PDPA and our sector's financial reporting obligations. Ravi structured the engagement around our actual situation rather than a generic checklist, and the report came back organized in a way that our compliance team could use directly as a remediation plan.

I came in for an IP consultation on a copyright matter involving our design studio's work. The advice I received was practical and didn't run through every conceivable scenario just to extend the meeting. I left with a clear understanding of my position and a concrete next step. The fee was fair for what was covered.

We retained Corvus Legal to advise on our licence arrangement for a technology trademark we were extending to a Malaysian licensee. Ahmad and the team were clear about what the arrangement needed to include from a legal standpoint, and the agreement they drafted was well-constructed. The process was straightforward from start to finish.

§ 3.0 — Engagement Summaries
Selected Matter Summaries
Anonymised summaries of completed engagements illustrating the firm's approach across its practice areas.
Case — 01
Facility Agreement Remediation
Situation
A mid-size property developer had signed a term loan facility two years earlier. When refinancing became necessary, a review revealed that the security documentation had not been perfected as required, creating an enforcement risk.
Engagement
The firm was engaged to review the full security package and identify the specific steps needed to correct the deficiencies before the refinancing was agreed. A written report set out each gap and the recommended remedy.
Outcome
All identified deficiencies were remedied within six weeks, and the refinancing proceeded on schedule. The client subsequently engaged the firm for the documentation of the refinancing facility itself.
Duration: 8 weeks
Case — 02
Trademark Portfolio Consolidation
Situation
A consumer goods company had accumulated trademark registrations over ten years through several agencies. The portfolio contained overlapping marks, lapsed registrations, and gaps in classes where the brand was commercially active.
Engagement
The firm conducted a portfolio review and produced a written recommendation covering which marks to maintain, which to allow to lapse, and where new applications were needed. The recommendation was organized by commercial priority.
Outcome
The client reduced its annual trademark maintenance costs by approximately 30% while closing coverage gaps in its two most commercially important categories. New applications were filed and registered within seven months.
Duration: 12 weeks (review & recommendations)
Case — 03
PDPA Compliance Review
Situation
A logistics company with approximately 200 employees had no formal PDPA compliance framework in place. Following a data incident at a competitor, the management team decided to assess their own position before issues arose.
Engagement
The firm conducted a structured review of the company's data handling practices, consent mechanisms, and staff procedures. The resulting report grouped findings by urgency and included a timeline for addressing each category.
Outcome
High-priority items were addressed within four weeks of the report. The company implemented a staff awareness programme and updated its privacy notices within three months. A follow-up review was scheduled for the following year.
Duration: 5 weeks
