Divorce and Separation
The end of a marriage is often fraught with emotional and financial complexities. We assist with both contested and uncontested divorces, focusing on:
- Equitable division of matrimonial assets, including properties, investments, and liabilities
- Fair and enforceable spousal maintenance arrangements
- Parenting plans that reflect the best interests of children, ensuring stability and care continuity
Our approach is efficient, preserving dignity and minimizing unnecessary conflict, often leveraging the streamlined processes introduced under the latest Family Justice Rules 2024.
For Separation:
The Firm drafts the following:
- Deed of Separation
- Marital Agreement – this is usually undertaken when Parties want to give the marriage a further opportunity and want to structure as to the ways they live, moving forward.
Child Custody and Access
Decisions about custody and access impact not only parents but, most importantly, children’s futures. We craft custody frameworks that are trauma-informed and child-centric, incorporating:
- Joint, sole, or hybrid custody arrangements
- Structured access schedules and supervised access/visitation when necessary
- Assistance with international custody issues and cross-border relocations
- Child abduction
Maintenance Claims
Financial support post-separation is vital for maintaining stability. We represent both applicants and respondents to establish maintenance that is:
- Fair, reasonable, and sustainable
- Adaptable through variation applications in light of changing circumstances
- Legally enforceable to safeguard your rights
Division of Matrimonial Assets
From HDB flats and private residences to business holdings and overseas investments, the division of shared assets requires meticulous legal and financial scrutiny. We conduct thorough evaluations and prepare precise submissions to ensure equitable distribution compliant with the law.
Personal Protection Orders (PPOs)
Safety is paramount. For those facing abuse or harassment, we act swiftly to secure protection through:
- Personal Protection Orders
- Expedited and Domestic Exclusion Orders
- Legal remedies under the Protection from Harassment Act (POHA)
Our team handles these sensitive cases with the utmost compassion and confidentiality.
