Divorce
Divorce is a very personal matter and it affects you and your family. Divorce proceedings need not be acrimonious or too costly if you are well prepared. We help families proceed in a collaborative manner, to agree on the reasons for divorce and ancilliaries (division of assets and care of children).
Probate and Letters of Administration
Whether or not there is a Will, the family would want to consider starting the legal process of appointing the legal representative for the estate of the deceased. Once Probate or Letter of Administration is granted, the family will be able to transfer assets to the beneficaries. We guide families along each step of the way.
Mental Capacity Act applications
Where the patient has no LPA, and the family needs to manage the affairs of a patient so that they can be taken care of e.g. medical care and bills, the family may wish to have access to their bank accounts, or CPF funds or be able to rent or sell property to help defray the costs of medical treatment, medication, nursing care and other medical needs etc. The family’s best option is to apply to Family Justice Court to be appointed a Deputy to take care of such matters under the MCA. We advise families on how to prepare for the Court application, and what is required in the medical report to satisfy the court and minimise the time and cost taken.

I’m currently separating from a Singaporean citizen overseas. I reached out to Yuen Law LLC to see whether it would be possible as foreign spouse to an order made by Singaporean Court for my ex-spouse’s assets to be disclosed. For these to be included in the matrimonial pool so that the assets can be distributed fairly.
The office responded on the day I send an initial enquiry and Bernice organised a zoom call the same week.
I had an initial meeting with Lim Yuen Peen who understood the situation and offered his honest opinion. An open and no-nonsense approach, keeping in mind cost, time and even thinking beyond my initial enquiry. Should my matter escalate, I would have no reservation to use Mr Lim as my lawyer in the future.
I had some Indian documents to be notarised for which I reached out to Yuen Law. Bernice was extremely helpful and professional in her communication from start to finish. Also, Brendan and Mr Lim guided and helped me to complete the notarisation process.
Mr Lim and Si Xuan has been very helpful during the whole LOA application process, it was difficult moment and hectic for our family but we managed to get the LOA done without much difficulties as I have a minor involved. They also always very supportive in trying to minimised their client expenses, totally recommended.
We have engaged Si Xuan and Brendan for my mother in law’s will. It was done professionally and patiently as my mil is illiterate. Thanks to both their excellent service! My mil felt assured n comfortable with their services ! We appreciate everything delivered! Keep up the great service and work!
