Civil disputes

Letters of demand, originating claims, pleadings, and case conferences through to trial in Singapore courts.

Civil claim files and correspondence prepared for court
Letter of demand and statement of claim documents under counsel review

A demand letter without proper foundation escalates cost; ignoring one can forfeit settlement. We assess limitation, draft originating claims or defences, and fix disclosure timelines at case conferences.

See our note on the sequence from demand to first hearing for a procedural overview.

Pleadings

Statements of claim and defences must match provable facts. Vague pleading invites strike-out; over-specific claims can fail if disclosure shifts the picture.

Trial

We examine witnesses, argue points of law, and pursue settlement where commercial relationships allow.
