Whilst happy and everlasting marriages are the hopes of everyone, this does not always happen in real life.

Sometimes unhappy differences may arise between couples, and it becomes necessary to consider the available legal options. As a divorce lawyer, I am happy to take questions here and provide some broad guidance, although this (for legal reasons) shall not be construed as legal advice.

Some common topics of interest may include:
- Difference between divorce and separation
- Divorce by mutual agreement and uncontested divorce
- Custody matters for children
- Selling HDB flat before divorce
- Enforcement of access orders
- Family violence - Personal Protection Orders and how to obtain one
- Prenuptial and Postnuptial agreements - do these have effect in Singapore
- How to get an annulment
- Divorce fees in Singapore
- Mediation process in divorce proceedings
- Division of matrimonial assets
- Whether divorce affects PR or LTVP status (for foreigners)

The above are just some examples questions I commonly get asked. Feel free to post your questions here and we can have a discussion. If you would like a more private and personalized consultation, feel free to reach out to me through the link attached.

Hi!
Can I know more about selling a hdb before divorce and custody + alimony matters? You can DM me for details
 
Thank you for your time and your input. Like you said, there will be plenty of homework for us to do in the next few days, but if she would like to schedule a paid consult, we have your number. Thank you again!
 
Hello! I have a question about the process of announcing the divorce to my husband. If he has narcissistic tendencies, I don’t feel it’s a good idea I inform him and we return back to the home where we stay with the kids. Can I take the kids and leave the matrimonial home? How can I still give him access without him later taking the kids away too in the interim period before divorce settles.

Hello. Sorry to hear about your situation. Unfortunately, your situation is more common than you think. Quite a number of our female clients face this predicament. Will drop you a PM and share the advice I give to our clients facing this issue.
 
Hello Mr Yong, may I know what is the cost for uncontested and contested divorce? My spouse has OCPD and I think he is a narcissistic. He has a very bad temper and would be slamming door/throwing stuffs when he is mad. In our 19yrs of marriage, he mentioned "let's divorce, I thot about it for a long time already" 3 times and no action was taken on his side. However, I felt enough is enough so I am looking at filing for a divorce on my end this time round. We have 2 teenage children and I am very worried about their safety and mental health.

Thank you for taking the time to post the question. We offer fixed rate packages for uncontested divorce and for divorce proceedings up to court-mediation (which is compulsory in cases where there are children below 21 years old).

Given your concerns about your spouse’s behaviour and the children’s welfare, we will also need to discuss issues of care and control, access, and protective measures to ensure their best interests are safeguarded.

We will be happy to offer a free consultation to you at our office so you can understand more about the process and possible next steps.
