by Jason S. Legal Advice in Singapore

If you are planning to meet a divorce lawyer Singapore for the initial consultation, there are many things that can come to your mind. You might have made a list of things that you think are essential. It is really good that you are working on that. However, you are undergoing a lot of pressure and emotional breakdown due to the divorce so you must not forget the essential things. So, here are few questions that you should include during the initial consultation:

  1. The first and the most important thing to ask is about the fees they are going to charge you. Divorce process in Singapore can be costly affair. Most of the divorce lawyers have their hourly fees. So be very specific about you spend the time and know the cost before you hire them. An unplanned affair can cause damage to your savings.
  2. Talk to them about the divorce process in Singapore and what are the things that you will come across during the process. It will help you in preparing yourself mentally. Mostly the procedure depends upon the complexities involved in the case. Also, if you work full time, you will have to take out time to follow the process.
  3. Discuss with the divorce lawyer Singapore about the issues involving alimony from your spouse. Mostly the alimony relates to the duration of your marriage and the fact that who is going to take care of the children post divorce. Talking about alimony will prepare you for future.
  4. If you have children, you must discuss the custody of your children. Like what are the prospects of keeping the children with you and if your spouse is going to pay for the upbringing of children and if not how are things going to work or maybe, if you have to pay for the child custody.


We will agree to the fact that taking a divorce from your partner is not an easy affair. You need to prepare your mind and soul completely to move forward and file the case of divorce in court. Mutual divorce is peaceful one, but for a contested divorce life seems to be a nightmare. Rather than wasting time by getting depressed seek the help and assistance of a divorce lawyer with great track record to handle your case. Be bold and face the case proceedings to ensure a better tomorrow for you.
