One of the best decision was to engage Gino and his team for my case. I had spoken with a few lawyers, and had strong hunch that Gino has the right profile. I am glad to have made that decision. Few months after the letter of representation was sent, I received a note that I was given a stern warning.

Deepest appreciation to Gino and his team for their legal support during their whole time.

I would highly recommend Gino to anyone who has a brush with the Law.

Le,

Mr Gino is the best and extraordinary criminal lawyer that you can trust and rely on any legal matters.
Without his professional advise and help, I would have charge at court instead.

Thank you for what you have done for me and I am extremely thankful to you.

Full respect him and fully recommended him for any legal matters.

Paing,

Was cleared one and a half months after the letter of representation was raised ..for OOM..
Thank you

Joseph Tan,

Gino came through in time that was very stressful for me . My maid accused me of slapping her and my husband of molesting her. It was during the lockdown that the police informed us of the charges. The police claimed they had a video but were not forthcoming about what the video content was. We were shocked, didn’t know where to turn to. On the first call Gino understood our stress and the state we were as a family. We submitted our version of events and he wrote to the prosecutor. It took some time but the case didn’t go to the court. We are thankful to Gino who came through as a savior in a time that felt like we couldn’t go on with our lives.
