When personal upheaval strikes – whether through separation, custody disputes, adoption efforts, or the need for protection from harm – the path ahead can seem overwhelming. Amid the swirl of emotions and practical hurdles, focused legal guidance becomes a vital lifeline. A skilled family lawyer not only drafts documents; he or she helps restore dignity, defend rights, and paves the way for a safer, hopeful future under Singapore’s steadily evolving laws.
Amarjit Sidhu Law (ASL) offers that kind of steady, empathetic representation and has earned a reputation for honesty, tireless advocacy, and solutions aimed at moving clients forward.
Drawing on decades of combined experience, the firm’s lawyers tailor their advice to each person’s situation, guiding clients through sensitive discussions and complex procedures with strength, respect, and unyielding support.
Understanding Family Law in Singapore
Family law in Singapore covers the legal issues that can arise between relatives or people living as a family. Common topics include:
- Divorce and separation
- Spousal and child maintenance
- Division of matrimonial assets
- Custody, care and control of children
- Visitation and access rights
- Family violence and personal protection
- Adoption and guardianship
- Wills, probate, and estate administration
The Family Justice Court hears these matters, aiming to keep families connected where possible, settle disputes fairly and equitably, and ensure it is in the best interests of children.
Still, even with clear rules, the feelings tied to family conflicts can feel far heavier than any document. When that happens, a seasoned family lawyer steps in with solid legal advice and the calm presence you need.
Why is ASL a Trusted Name in Family Law?
- Decades of Expertise and Strategic Insight
Founded by seasoned lawyer Mr. Amarjit Singh Sidhu, the firm brings to each case a wealth of legal experience honed across decades of practice. Whether managing high-conflict divorces, international custody disputes, or intricate asset division, the firm’s legal strategies are both intelligent and practical.
- Tailored Legal Advice
ASL refuses to treat families like cookie-cutter templates. Every household has its own story. Every set of facts looks a little different. The team meets clients face-to-face, asks the right questions, listens to their hopes and worries, and then drafts a plan that aims straight for the best possible result.
- Client-Centred Philosophy
In family law, knowing the rules matters, but so does caring. The lawyers speak gently, park their judgment at the door, and keep clients in the loop at every turn, so everyone feels confident and in control.
- Multidisciplinary Support
Family troubles sometimes spill into property, inheritance, or even criminal issues when violence is present, so the firm brings together lawyers from those fields under one roof to cover every angle without forcing clients to run around town.
Core Services Offered by ASL in Family Law
Divorce Proceedings
Whether the split is friendly or full of arguments, the firm stands beside clients at each step, helping them work out eligibility, draft and file papers, negotiate settlement terms, and sort out maintenance, custody, and how to divide the family’s assets both inside court and at the settlement table.
Custody, Care and Control of Children
Whenever a family dispute arises, the first thing on everyone’s mind is the wellbeing of the children. Amarjit Sidhu Law guides parents who want to gain or challenge custody and day-to-day care arrangements. The team pushes for parenting plans that bring the young ones the stability, safety, and routine they desperately need.
Spousal and Child Maintenance

Matrimonial Asset Division
Division of property and money (assets) during a divorce is rarely a polite conversation, and tempers usually flare. ASL earns trust by valuing every asset and proposing a division according to the law that is fair so clients leave with a fair share they deserve.
Personal Protection Orders (PPOs)
When home feels dangerous because of physical violence or constant belittling, victims often freeze. The firm acts fast, asking the court for Protection Orders that put safety first. If time is short, they will also file for applications for Expedited or Domestic Exclusion Orders, giving clients space to breathe and rebuild.
Adoption and Guardianship
At Amarjit Sidhu Law, the team handles both local and cross-border adoption cases. They walk families step by step through the paperwork, engage with government agencies on their behalf, and ensure that every legal box is ticked. The practice also helps apply for guardianship when minors or persons with special needs need a steady advocate.
Wills and Estate Matters
Beyond courtroom disputes, the firm guides clients in drawing up wills and planning estates (immovable property) to avoid messy arguments later.
