How We Defend You
1. Early Advice & Representation
From the moment you are investigated or arrested, we step in to advise you on your rights and prepare your defence. Acting early often makes a significant difference to the outcome.
2. Letter of Representation
A strong first step in many cases is submitting a Letter of Representation to the Attorney-General’s Chambers. This may persuade the prosecution to reduce or even drop charges before the case reaches court.
3. Plea Mitigation
If you decide to plead guilty, we prepare a mitigation plea to highlight your personal circumstances, remorse, and rehabilitation prospects, aiming to secure the lightest sentence possible.
4. Trial Defence
If your case proceeds to trial, we provide thorough preparation and skilled courtroom advocacy to protect your rights and challenge the prosecution’s case.
Transparent Criminal Defence Fees
At PKWA Law, we believe legal fees should never be a source of uncertainty. That’s why our fees are fixed and transparent:
- Advice & initial representation – from $1,590
- Plea mitigation – from $3,990
- Trial defence – fees depend on case complexity (please contact us for a personalised quote)
With us, you will always know what your legal fees are upfront, with no hidden charges.
Why Having a Criminal Lawyer Matters
Singapore’s criminal justice system is strict, and even minor offences can carry serious consequences. Without proper legal advice, you may:
- Incriminate yourself during investigations
- Face harsher penalties due to poor mitigation
- Miss opportunities to reduce or avoid charges
An experienced criminal lawyer in Singapore will safeguard your rights, explain your options clearly, and guide you through every step of the process.
