Litigation is our Forte.
Established in 1998, Thomas, Shankar Ram & Company, Advocates, formerly Shankar Ram & Co, is a boutique law firm based in Kuching, Sarawak. We are exclusively dedicated to the art and science of contentious litigation. Our unflinching resolve and tenacious approach have earned us a reputation for being unfazed by litigation and fearlessly advocating for our clients' rights.
Our Firm's Expertise
Our firm's expertise was further enhanced in 2003 with the addition of the late Mr. T.O. Thomas, a Senior Advocate, prompting the firm's name change. Today, our team of experienced lawyers specialises in a broad spectrum of civil and criminal litigation, offering clients a comprehensive range of legal solutions. Our expertise encompasses corporate and commercial law, contract and construction disputes, arbitration, international trade, shipping, personal injury, negligence, and professional negligence claims, among others.
Our diverse clientele includes corporations, major businesses, state-related bodies, high-net-worth individuals, and everyday people seeking justice. As a litigation-only practice, we are frequently entrusted with advising clients on sensitive and contentious matters.
Heading the firm is Mr. Shankar R. P. Asnani, a renowned lawyer in Sarawak with extensive experience in both civil and criminal law. Under his leadership, our dynamic team thrives on challenges, consistently delivering effective strategies that align with our clients' objectives and interests. The firm’s priority is always to resolve disputes efficiently, minimising disruption to our clients' businesses and reputations. We are committed to partnering with our clients throughout the process, providing expert guidance and support every step of the way.
