I engaged Mr Rajan as my lawyer for my case in court for possession of corrosive weapon and harassment charges.
Mr Rajan made representation and I was issued with a conditional warning.
I am a senior civil servant and able to retain my job in the uniform service. I and my family are grateful for his excellent professional work!
Mr Rajan had saved my life and career!
I engaged Mr Rajan for his Legal services and advice. He was very professional and gave me the right focus with my limited budget fees. He was very reliable, patient and & was keen to give me help & also did my documentation promptly. I would recommend him highly to anyone who require legal assistance.
I engaged Lawyer Mr Rajan to appeal to ICA for my nephew’s entry into Singapore from India. Mr Rajan made a good appeal and it was successful and ICA approved. My Cousin had appealed on his own previously but was not successful. He was banned from entering Singapore. We are very grateful to Mr Rajan for going through my cousin’s records and employment history patiently before submitting the appeal. Mr Rajan is a simple and an approachable Lawyer. We also found Mr Rajan knowlegeable and well versed with ICA laws and policies. We recommend him to others for his excellent services.
We engaged Mr Rajan for our company Blangladeshi foreign worker. My worker was charged with section 323 penal code for voluntarily causing hurt with a weapon, a metal pipe. The victim suffered injuries. Mr Rajan fought the case very hard & got a fine. We are very heartened & happy with the outcome of the case. My worker now can carry on working in Singapore. Mr Rajan has put his heart & mind in the case & got my worker with a low fine of $2000. Mr Rajan is a good, hardworking & an outstanding lawyer. We wish him many good years ahead in his legal profession.
