Our Experienced Conveyancing “Selling House” Lawyers and Staff

Conveyancing transactions involve numerous laws, rules and regulations.  The conveyancing lawyer plays a pivotal role in ensuring that the transaction proceeds smoothly and securely.  Our conveyancing department possesses extensive experience, and will handle the whole process, offering you peace of mind during this significant milestone.  The team has assisted the property lawyer conveyancer in transactions way back in 1973 to the present.

In particular, we are able to assist with conveyances of property pursuant to a divorce order of court to ensure that each party receives what they are entitled to. Should the orders be unworkable or require changes, we can also assist former spouses to apply to court to obtain variations of the orders of court in question so that the sale, purchase or transfer of the property can go through as required.

While our founding partner, Mr Lee Min Sen, who was a conveyancer and property lawyer, has just retired, Mr Chee Wai Pong has joined the firm, bringing along with him close of 50 years of private practice experience, as a property lawyer conveyancer.
