Siew Kim is very experienced and professional in her work. When I first met her in her office, I couldn’t stop myself from crying my eyes out. She was very patient and listened to my failed marriage story. She was so experienced that after hearing my first few sentences, she concluded that my ex-husband has another woman outside. I was still in denial that he will not do that to me. Straight away she entered a mobile number on my hp and asked me to engage this experienced PI to follow up on my case in order for me to “wake up” and stop deceiving myself further. To cut the story short, the verdict is out and she has guessed correctly. Only very experienced lawyer can seen through this whole plot from my ex-husband. Although she is very busy and super tight with her schedule, she never failed to make a point to see me and give me advices, guiding me step by step on how to approach my ex-husband and talk terms with him. She is a god sent to me to help me go through such a difficult period; holding my hands and walking through this distressing stage. I’m grateful to her and her team for expediting my case and checking on me now and then. I will not forget her kindness and will continue to keep in touch with her even after my divorce case is over. In a good way, as a dear friend. Thank you, Siew Kim. May your new office flourish endlessly. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Jane Lim,

Tan Siew Kim was recommended by a mutual friend. I am happy that it turned out to be one the best decision I ever made in my life.
In all our meetings, Siew Kim always had a listening ear. She would seek first to understand your issue and backgrounds of events before proposing next step. As Siew Kim and myself come from different backgound and experience, it is normal of me to hold different viewpoints. She would patiently explain the rationale behind each differing viewpoints. I got more confidence every times after speaking with her.
During the trial prrocess, she fought relentlessly, argued wisely and staged intelligently. She was very composed, confident and steadfast during the whole trial process. We won the court case and I am grateful to her and her team.
Siew Kim is patient and very professional. Strong recommendation from me if you are going through divorce process with your spouse.

Tony Tan,

This review is a bit overdue for Ms Tan. I engaged her in December 2021 to help me with my PPO and divorce as my ex husband is a very difficult and temperamental person. Ms Tan is very experienced and patient. She will listen attentively to your plight and provides sound advises on what steps to take next. Ms Tan is always contactable even though it’s very late at night she will still respond to your calls or messages. She also prepares me well for my mediation sessions with food and backup plans within my acceptable limits, should our proposed plans fail. As such, everything is within our control and expectations. To add on, Ms Tan has a very strong and responsible team who supports and responds effectively and efficiently to the other party’s demands.
Even after my case ended, Ms Tan still keeps in contact with me and provides advice for any help I require. I’m not sure about other lawyers but for Ms Tan she doesn’t mind being kept in the loop each time I converse with my ex husband (who is very good at spinning stories) through emails. I’m very grateful to ms Tan and highly recommend her for any family law matters.

Ng Hui Qi,

I was searching for a lawyer and came across Ms Tan Siew Kim. I read her past cases that she did and I was facing a crisis on my case and need someone to bring me out of this long legal battle.
After meeting her in person and Mr Kenneth, I was rest assured that they are ones who will be able to get me out of my long legal battle. They provided me good guidance and support thru my problematic case.

And the most important is that the support rendered was not only during office hours but also after and on weekends with quick response from them. They are very warm, friendly and respectful to your needs of the case with priority and time given in person with detailed explanation of what’s to be expected.

Good law firm with good and dedicated team of lawyers headed by well experienced lawyer like Ms Tan.
