My Philosophy
As an experienced Advocate and Principal Mediator, I believe the best legal resolution is one that is rooted in understanding the human story behind every case. My aim is to deliver clarity, fairness, and a sustainable path forward, whether through skillful litigation or comprehensive alternative dispute resolution.
For over two decades, I have been dedicated to providing high-quality legal advice across the Singapore Court hierarchy, from complex contested matters to accessible justice initiatives. This commitment was recognised with the State Courts’ Outstanding Volunteer of the Year Award in 2018, and I am honoured to be named the Law Society Pro Bono Ambassador for 2025.
