Excellent lawyer, very understanding and professional. Highly recommended.

MW,

Gino is indeed a strong and compassionate lawyer with lots of kindness. He may look fierce and stern when I first met him at the law firm. But the legal work he has completed for you is truly a comfort and privilege. I am truly and sincerely thankful to Gino for his passion and commitment to me during my most difficult financial times. The heart sees better than the eyes. I would highly recommend Gino to anyone who needs help both emotional and psychologically.

Anderson Woon Chong Lean,

I would like to thank Gino for all the effort he has put in my case. I was accused of outrage of modesty, but Gino’s quick response and sending of representation letters to AGC helped to resolve the police case within 2 months. There was no charges filed against me. Me and my Wife will remain ever grateful to Gino for his help and advice all through police investigation process. I will highly recommend him as a lawyer who understands your case thoroughly and gives you honest recommendation for your situation.
Regards,
PM

PM,

I was framed for a robbery charge by the actual robbers. Mr Singh defended me and the matter was fixed for trial. He believed me and stood by me all the way even though I didn’t have a credible alibi witness. I don’t know what would have happened if Mr Singh wasn’t my lawyer. I was given a full acquittal today. Thank you Mr Singh. My family and I are eternally grateful to you.

razif,
