I had worst of time, when I was falsely accused for outrage of modesty. By god’s grace I came in contact with Gino , Gino called me to his office very next day and after carefully listening me , wrote the representation. Gino & team not only wrote a strong representation with relevant evidences but was very supportive and always reachable throughout this tough time. Finally after 20 months I was acquitted with no further action. For me and my family, Gino was strongest support. Many thanks for all his support.

NB,

I suffered a traumatic event being detained at Changi airport and arrested under a historical CBT allegation dating back 17 years. If found guilty I was facing a jail term.
I contacted Abbots Chambers to handle my case.
Even though this was a complex case that involved stakeholders in different countries, Gino Hardial Singh was confident that we could get a result of NFA upon reviewing all the facts.
Even though this this was one of the most traumatic and worrying situations I had faced Gino always remained calm and positive throughout and my confidence grew after each meeting.
Over a few weeks of trying to gather historical evidence and recall events from 17 years before, Gino had put together a strong and solid defence and submitted a representation to the Attorney General to review the case and consider No Further Action be taken.

Gino’s deep legal knowledge and his detailed review of my case and evidence available proved to be a godsend when 5 weeks after my arrest we were informed by the AGC that no further action would be taken, and the case was completely closed.

Without a doubt my family and I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Gino and the Abbots Chambers team for defending and representing me. Gino is an exceptional lawyer, is always available and works tirelessly to ensure that the best possible result is obtained. I would recommend anyone facing any legal issues to get in touch with Gino and his team.

ADL,

2 of my colleagues and I were charged in court for cheating offences. Mr Gino Hardial Singh represented all 3 of us. CPIB investigated us for corruption initially. Mr Singh fought hard. Multiple rounds of representations were made. The quantum in relation to secret profits was reduced from an amount in excess of a million dollars to under 100k. We were all acquitted of one of the charges. In respect of the remaining proceeded cheating charge, we were fined $15K and $10K respectively. We are certain that if Mr Singh had not represented us, we would have faced jail. The matter was resolved on the first day of trial. We thank Mr Singh from the bottom of our hearts!

W,

Thousands and Millions Thanks to Mr. Gino H. Singh.
With your great help and advised, helps me to pull through and eventually having a successful ending.
Helping me get a warning for commuting an offence of mischief.
