Based in Jakarta, Batavia Advocatorum (B.Av) has expanded its dispute resolution team with the addition of litigation partner Raditya Anugerah Titus, who joins from Makarim & Taira S, one of Indonesia's oldest law firms.
Syafrullah Hamdi, the managing partner of B.Av in Jakarta, told Asia Business Law Journal that the firm sought to strengthen its market position through Titus’s strong litigation and dispute resolution capabilities, including international arbitration.
“As a former senior litigation lawyer at one of the most reputable law firms in Indonesia, he has been extensively handling many high-profile cases, which we believe can attract more top-tier global clients to the firm,” said Hamdi.
Before joining B.Av, Titus had practised as a senior associate at Makarim & Taira S for nine years, including a three-month secondment to Drew & Napier, one of Singapore’s largest law firms. With more than 14 years of legal experience, the litigator has worked on both national and international litigation proceedings – both civil and criminal – representing domestic and international clients ranging from financial institutions to manufacturers and energy companies.
Hamdi shared with Asia Business Law Journal that Titus will concentrate on growing the firm's litigation and dispute resolution department, leveraging his expertise in criminal litigation, employment issues, bankruptcy, payment delays, and domestic and international arbitration cases.
With Titus joining the team, B.Av now boasts three partners, two counsels, and seven associates.
