Dispute Resolution, Employment & Commercial Litigation
LLB (Hons), MMU
Florence Toh Teng Teng is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of William, Florence & Partners and leads the firm’s dispute resolution practice. Her practice focuses on corporate and commercial disputes, employment and industrial relations, contractual disputes, debt recovery, enforcement and strategic litigation.
She advises and represents businesses and individuals in contentious matters before the Malaysian Courts and the Industrial Court. Her experience includes disputes involving corporate employers, dismissal and constructive dismissal, contractual obligations, commercial claims, enforcement proceedings and appellate litigation.
Florence has acted as counsel in a number of reported cases. Her judgments and awards from the High Court and the Industrial Court can be found on recognised Malaysian legal databases, including LexisNexis and eLaw. This gives clients a public, independently verifiable record of her litigation work.
Employment and Industrial Relations
Florence has particular experience in employment and industrial relations, having represented both employees and employers at different stages of her career. This gives her a practical understanding of how employment disputes are advanced and defended, including the evidential, procedural and strategic issues that may ultimately decide the outcome.
For employers, this means advice that anticipates how a claimant’s lawyer will build the case. For employees, it means knowing how a company is likely to defend its decision.
Commercially Focused Dispute Resolution
Her approach to dispute resolution is commercially focused. She works with clients to identify the legal issues, evidence, financial exposure and business consequences of a dispute before deciding on the appropriate course of action, whether through negotiation, settlement, enforcement or contested proceedings.
Not every dispute needs to go to trial. Where a matter can be resolved sooner and at lower cost, she will say so. Where it needs to be fought, she prepares it to be fought.
Florence remains personally involved in the strategy and conduct of the significant and complex contentious matters handled by the firm.
What to Expect When You Work With Florence
1. Clear advice at the first meeting: whether you have a case, the likely route, how long it may take and what it may cost, in plain English.
2. Every step planned: each court date and deadline tracked, so you always know what comes next.
3. Papers prepared promptly: from Notice of Demand to writ, judgment and enforcement.
4. Regular updates: you will not be left wondering where your case stands.
Backed by the Litigation System
The firm’s own Litigation System prepares the papers, dates and reminders behind every case. This lets Florence spend her time where it matters most: on strategy and on the case in court.
