When a legal crisis hits, the first thing most people search for is a trusted Criminal lawyer in Singapore, because it feels like everything you’ve spent years building is suddenly being stripped away.
- The Weight of Sudden Silence: You feel you can’t speak to your peers, or even your friends, leaving you to carry the crushing stress of an investigation entirely on your own.
- The Fear for Your Family: You worry about the “social stain” on your spouse and children, and whether they will lose the security, home, and standing you’ve worked so hard to provide.
- A Jarring Loss of Control: Having your passport taken, your devices seized, or your accounts monitored is a terrifying reminder that you are no longer the one in charge of your own story.
- The Threat of Social Outcast: You dread the “perp walk,” the news headlines, and the very real possibility of being shunned by the community you’ve lived in for decades.

Was just surfing for free legal advice and out pops a message from Tembusu Law LLC. Got an immediate whats app text from Jonathan, which was very impressive. I didn’t expect someone to contact me in such a short time for free advice. Jonathan asked a few questions about my case and I feedback to him whatever was relevant. After a few days, Jonathan gave me a legal firm contact that is suitable to handle my case. In fact, he said to just wait for the legal firm to call me. He mentioned short consultation should be free and fees will only apply once the lawyer thinks I have a good case to put up.
Fantastic service and an organization with a big heart. A big shout out to Jonathan who helped me so much in emotional support as well as good useful advise. Jonathan went out of his way to check-in with me and cared for our family. Highly recommended!
Received excellent and prompt service from Jonathan. He was very helpful in guiding me to available resources and followed up consistently. Thank you Jonathan.
I reached out to Jonathan seeking for advice and he was helpful and incredibly detailed. He even followed up on my case and took a call on Sunday to go through my case with me.
I was very impressed with the attentiveness to detail and the comprehensive approach to address my concerns. Jonathan shows a genuine desire to help people with legal issues, he is professional, empathetic and respectful. I would certainly recommend him.
Had a free consultation on Divorce matter and child matters with Jonathan and thank you for his precious time. Came direct to the point and provided some useful suggestions for my necessary action. Highly recommended to approach his service if needed to as i am sure he will be able to tap on his expertise for any family law matters.
Jonathan was prompt in his reply, requested as much info as possible for his review so that he could offer appropriate advice. His approach was transparent and he was not pushy at all. He gave me the option to think it over before I actually decide whether to engage his service. Thank you very much, Jonathan, for being so understanding.
