I recently went through a rough divorce proceeding. Mr Wahab and his dedicated staff were very thorough in helping me with my divorce case. He is a very dedicated lawyer who showed professional ethics with calm and confidence. I would not hesitate to refer his services to any of my friends who need help. Thank you, Mr Wahab n to your dedicated staff as well.

Only my 2nd Google review. I feel its worth my time writing for them one. Had a hearing with FJC on 20 July 2023.On my 1st ever consultation with Mr Abdul Wahab, I feel I can vibe with him as he understands my family dynamics, was non-judgemental (compared to other law firms I visited) n walked me through the gameplan. I can also feel his sincerity.On the day of hearing, Mr Abdul Wahab has a calm demeanour; beaming with confidence. He constantly assured me that things are going to be fine. We stuck to the gameplan (executed smoothly; largely orchestrated by Mr Hasif) and most importantly - the hearing concluded with me attaining the desired outcome.Basically Mr Hasif and Mr James were the brains in my case (really appreciative of their hours of preparation works; leaving no stones unturned).Their Chinatown Point office has a family vibe and staff like Ms Pari and Ms Nikki Koh were cordial towards me.

They handled my case well and proven results. Their Chinatown Point office has a family vibe which when you go in you will have very nice feeling. Would recommend any of my friends in any case they needed to consult lawyer.

I got over to Mr.Wahab after not moving in the right directions with the first lawyer I engaged for the PPO application against my spouse. Mr.Wahab took up my case and his approach was both sensitive and sensible given that fact that the whole matter had a family at stake. I eventually managed to serve my spouse with a PPO and have her drop the PPO application she served for the children. He also understood the sentiments and predicaments of a father and spoke up for me in the form legal letters to the other firm.I thank him for helping me in one of the most difficult phases in my life.

Frequently Asked Questions For Divorce

1. What are the legal grounds for divorce in Singapore?

In Singapore, you can file for divorce on the basis of "irretrievable breakdown of the marriage." This can be proven through several ways, such as:

  • Adultery
  • Unreasonable behavior
  • Desertion for at least two years
  • Separation for three years (with mutual consent)
  • Separation for four years (without mutual consent)
2. How long does it take to get a divorce in Singapore?

The duration of a divorce process depends on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. An uncontested divorce, where both parties agree on all terms, can take about four to six months. A contested divorce, where there are disagreements, can take much longer, sometimes up to a year or more.

3. What is the process of filing for divorce in Singapore?

The divorce process typically involves the following steps:

  1. Filing a Writ for Divorce, Statement of Claim, and Statement of Particulars.
  2. Serving the documents to your spouse.
  3. Attending a court hearing.
  4. Obtaining an Interim Judgment.
  5. Finalizing the divorce with a Certificate of Final Judgment after three months.
4. How is property divided in a divorce?

Property division is based on what is fair and just. The court considers various factors, including:

  • Contributions made by both parties (financial and non-financial)
  • The needs of the children (if any)
  • The length of the marriage
  • Any agreements made between the parties
5. What about child custody and visitation rights?

Child custody arrangements focus on the best interests of the child. There are different types of custody:

  • Sole custody: One parent has the authority to make major decisions for the child.
  • Joint custody: Both parents share the authority to make major decisions.
  • Care and control: One parent lives with and makes daily decisions for the child, while the other has visitation rights.
6. Will I have to pay alimony or spousal support?

Alimony, or spousal support, is determined based on various factors, including:

  • The length of the marriage
  • The financial standing of both parties
  • Contributions made by both parties during the marriage
  • The standard of living during the marriage
7. Are there mediation and counseling services available?

Yes, mediation and counseling services are available to help couples resolve disputes amicably. These services can be helpful in reaching agreements on child custody, property division, and other issues without going to court.

8. What are the tax implications of divorce in Singapore?

Divorce can affect your taxes, especially regarding property transfers and alimony payments. It is advisable to seek legal and financial advice to understand the specific tax implications for your situation.

9. How does divorce affect housing and property ownership?

Divorce can impact housing arrangements, especially if the property is jointly owned. The court will consider various factors to determine how the property should be divided or whether one party should buy out the other’s share.

10. How can I cope with the psychological and emotional effects of divorce?
Divorce can be emotionally challenging. It is important to seek support from friends, family, or professional counselors. Many support networks and counseling services in Singapore can help you navigate this difficult time.
