1 August 2026 – Our Head of Family Law, Low Jin Liang, recently took part in a dialogue organised by the Ministry of Law and chaired by Minister for Law Edwin Tong. The session brought together family law practitioners and other stakeholders to discuss developments in Singapore’s family justice system.
The dialogue provided an opportunity for participants to exchange views on how families experiencing divorce and related disputes can be better supported, and to share practical insights from their experience advising and representing clients.
In his Facebook post following the session, Minister Tong observed that divorce is “one of the most painful and disorienting experiences” many families face, with its effects often extending beyond the conclusion of legal proceedings, particularly where children are involved. He also highlighted the Family Justice Courts’ therapeutic justice model, which seeks to promote healing and constructive outcomes for families.
As one of Singapore’s established family law practices, PKWA values opportunities to contribute practical perspectives drawn from representing families across a wide range of divorce and family law matters. Engagements such as these encourage the exchange of ideas and experiences among practitioners committed to serving families effectively.
We are grateful to the Ministry of Law for the opportunity to participate in this dialogue and remain committed to helping families navigate divorce and related legal issues with practical advice, experienced representation and a client-centred approach.
