The practice has seven people. Work is allocated by area and by stage of the matter. Each profile below sets out role, years in practice, areas handled, and how that person prepares work.

Gerald Toh Kim Seng

Managing Partner

22 years in practice · criminal defence and appellate work

Gerald reads the investigative record before any conference with a client. He asks for the sequence of events in the client's own words, then maps those facts against the charge sheet and the disclosure that has arrived. His attendance notes record what was said, what documents were received, and what the next procedural step is. He prefers written representations where the facts allow, and he explains each court date before it happens so that a client knows who will attend and why.

Nadia Kaur Sandhu

Partner

17 years in practice · criminal defence and regulatory matters

Nadia works from a written chronology that she builds with the client at the first attendance. She separates what is known from what is alleged, and she marks each document with its source and date. Regulatory correspondence is answered in plain language first, then in the formal terms the regulator expects. She keeps a running list of deadlines and sends a short written update after each material step.

Winston Chia Meng Kiat

Head of Criminal Practice

19 years in practice · criminal trials and pre-trial procedure

Winston tests the prosecution's theory against the disclosed material line by line. He prepares clients for interviews and for the witness box by rehearsing the sequence of questions without telling them what to say. Before a mention or a pre-trial conference he summarises the position in writing for the client and for counsel appearing that day. He retains experts only where the facts require a report, and he explains what that report can and cannot establish.

Serene Ho Mei Fong

Partner

15 years in practice · civil disputes and employment matters

Serene begins with the documents the client already holds: contracts, correspondence, termination letters, and any tribunal or court papers. She drafts a short note on limitation periods and on the routes available before any letter is sent. In employment matters she maps the internal process the employer followed and identifies what is missing from the record. She prefers early written exchange where it narrows the dispute.

Arjun Balakrishnan

Senior Associate

9 years in practice · mitigation research and sentencing submissions

Arjun collects mitigating material systematically: employment history, medical reports where relevant, and character references that meet the court's expectations. He researches sentencing ranges for comparable categories of offence and prepares a draft submission for review. He checks that every fact in a mitigation plea is supported by a document or by evidence that can be produced in court.

Cheryl Ang Suet Lin

Associate

6 years in practice · family and matrimonial matters

Cheryl asks for marriage certificates, orders already in place, and financial documents at the first meeting. She explains the procedural path before any application is filed and she records agreed arrangements in writing. Where children's arrangements are involved she focuses on practical schedules and on what the court will need to see at each stage.

Daniel Sim Yong Hui

Consultant

24 years in practice · regulatory and compliance advisory

Daniel reviews regulatory notices and internal investigation reports for chronology and for gaps. He drafts written responses that answer each allegation in turn and he flags where a matter should be referred to a specialist outside the practice. His notes record what was reviewed, what was advised, and what the client decided.

Three partners hold overall responsibility for criminal, civil, and regulatory streams. Associates and the consultant are assigned by stream and availability. One named lawyer remains responsible on each file from first attendance through to conclusion.
