GLORIA JAMES-CIVETTA & CO Reviews

Ms Gloria and her team were very professional and handled the case referred to them in such an amicable and amazing manner that what many lawyers who handled the case previously and had failed miserably, was successfully executed by them, surpassing my expectation. I am glad I had referred the family to Ms Gloria and her team who had been not only compassionate towards their client, but also very committed. Ms Liesel truly gained my admiration and confidence in her when she attended to the case on clutches, to settle the case promptly and without delay. My hats off to her! What makes me respect her even more was her compassion towards her client and it was a difficult opponent that she had to deal with. Yet, she handled it very well. Congratulations to her! I would not hesitate to recommend this law firm to anyone!

This is a law firm that cares about its clients. It has a deep sense of right and wrong and always seeks to "do the right thing". They guided me through the divorce process providing me with close support and went above and beyond the call of duty, even when that meant turning up personally in the middle of the night to help protect my children.

This is not a law firm that looks to maximise its fees by dragging out litigation. They are genuinely concerned about their clients and more specifically the children of their clients. This is a firm with a heart and a soul.

Very professional services provided from careful and diligent staff.

In my recent email exchanges with Ms. Gloria James-Civetta on the topic of the recent HIV data leak in Singapore where she was being interviewed by the press as one of the domain expert in the area of law, she had came across as prompt and reliable in providing accurate detailed responses even though we had no contractual relationship at all. All was through email exchanges and we have not even met in real life. Though I had very much wanted to engage her as my counsel to act for a case of similar nature, it became evident to me from her very detailed responses and top-notch fieldwork and investigation that I would have no grounds of commencing a legal suit. Nevertheless, her altruistic nature and act of delivering promised service excellence and dignity of a lawyer with a heart outshone my need for attention for detail in getting unpaid advice. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who seeks a highly-qualified lawyer with true passion for litigating from her heart to cases which can be difficult to understand to many.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Liesel Chong for providing me with very professional yet personable legal services at the same time. She took all of the weight off from my shoulder and handled everything efficiently and satisfactorily. I have pleasant working experience with and high regards for Gloria James-Civetta & Co. Many thanks to Gloria, Liesel, Cheryl, Evelyn and colleagues. I would highly recommend their services!

Thanks to GJC and the excellent service provided by Yvonne and Farah. I totally recommend GJC services.

Came across GJC Law while searching for a divorce lawyer. Very Informative website standing out amongst others. Very professional and client oriented. Keep you to date on every stage of the process. Very glad I have picked their service. Special thanks to Felix Liew my assigned lawyer.

Thank you GJC Law for helping me through this tough period of time. I appreciate the team's hard work and dedication to my matter.

Fast and efficient. They are experienced and able to offer advice in easy to understand terms. Receptionist was a bit snobbish when I first called though.

It was my 1st time doing this and am really fortunate to come across Gloria James Firm.
Lynda took my call and was very patient, helpful and most importantly extended an affordable quote.
Everyone was very professional and not proud or snobbish. Am very pleased and will definitely recommend this firm to anyone who needs their services. Thumbs up

Great to have engaged the services of Muntaz in getting my Will done. Although young, I finds her very well-experienced for the task, utmost professional and meticulous in her work. Congratulations to Gloria James- Civetta for having her in your team. Thank you.

GJC has been helpful both before and after engagement with them.

Had a situation with my sister in law. Defence team is very detail & very sensitive in every issue that was spread. Total out come was not as what we would have expected but their team is very engaging and very encouraging.

Shall keep in mind of Gloria James-Civetta & Co in regards of legal activities.
Well done & extended thanks to Lawyers Amarjit Singh, Melanie Low & Evelyn.

You've showed us there's still hope in defence lawyers here in Singapore. Thanks!

Javern Sim is a great attorney to seek your consultation and engage him as your representative... Super friendly, approachable, very experience in his field and clever! Will stay by your side and fight with you till the end!!! His assistance, Legal Executive Evelyn Ooi. She is very professional, systemic and friendly too. Thank you so much Javern and Evelyn. Kudos to both of you folks! Thank you GJC... please acknowledge their outstanding jobs!!!

Felix has been extremely helpful in handling my case. Will definitely recommend.

everything done in a very good way. very good lawyer( Felix)and stuff.

Arrogant and rude when we contacted, so we never engaged them

Great service and professionalism! I am glad to be able to find them

Michelle help me a lot to obtain the letter of administrator. She gave very good service and advise what should need to do. Always update me the status without asking. No wonder, they moved now to better office :)

My lawyer, Yvonne Schelkis-Sweeney was helpful and efficient in addressing my issue. Throughout the process, Yvonne was there to guide and advise me. Really appreciate her assistance and service. Thanks Yvonne and GJC!

The first time I have consulted a law firm here in Singapore - across 7 years. Liesel was able to understand my requirement and situation, identify the potential solutions and advise next steps within 2 days - through consistent email comms and a face to face meeting. I really appreciated her professionalism, efficiency and human skills to actually listen to and empathise with what I was going through. This is very important I feel. I am indeed in very good hands with GJC / Liesel. Thank you.

Great support at a fair price! I will call Liesel at GJC law for help again should the need arise.

Javern from Gloria James-Civetta & Co. has provided a professional service on my divoice case. His advice is detail and helpful. I am very pleased with his excellent service.

Our family would like to thank Lynda and Gloria James Firm for helping us thru the adoption process. The fees are affordable compare to others that i had called and most importantly Lynda is very helpful and know the process very well. To any potential parents going adoption proceeding, Gloria James is good choice.

I m very happy with their service as they had been updating on the progress periodically both via phone and email. They had been very accommodating and the staff were all very polite and helpful. Glad that I had engaged them for my legal services.

Great communication, well organised and matters handled seamlessly. Thank you for the awesome service.

I want to say that i had found the right place to get help from. I am grateful for the help and advice i got from Mr Armajit and his team. I must say he has really been very patient especially with all the amendments he had to make for me. Thank you for the professionalism.

A divorce can never be a pleasant. However, my lawyer at GJC, Yvonne Schelkis-Sweeney, made the experience more bearable and less stressful, with her professionalism, empathy, and responsiveness. Although my particular case was not complex, it took a long time. Throughout the process, Yvonne was there to guide, and advise, and even cheer me up when I needed it. What I most valued was her ability to balance representing my interests firmly with the need to show sensitivity to other other party's concerns.

I had the privilege and honour of engaging Muntaz with regards to employment matters. Her knowledge and expertise are invaluable and she handled my case with utter efficiency and utmost professionalism.

I would also like to commend on the overall customer experience I have received from the front desk to support team etc. This is truly a firm that cares deeply and goes beyond the extra mile while working out the most cost-effective and amicable solution for their clients. I would not hesitate to engage Gloria James-Civetta should I require legal counsel.

Singapore is a law-abiding country and the law indeed protects the morally upright. I'm glad Gloria James-Cievetta and Muntaz exist to maintain balance and uphold the integrity of justice.

5 stars for Javern, another 5 stars for the team! great legal services.

I had an amazing experience engaging Gloria, Cheryl, Beverly, and Siti as my lawyer. My case was exceptionally complex and they were very able to advice most appropriate steps, provide realistic expectations, and useful advice. In addition, they are very professional, with high integrity, well dedicated, and passionate with their work. I would highly recommend GJC law firm to anyone requires high quality and professional legal advices or representative.

I'm satisfied and pleased with GJC representing me for my court case this mth in July 2018. FYI I came across GJC more than a year ago when I was googling for a legal firm to handle my case and so I made a cold call to them. After talking on the phone, I made an appointment to see one of their staff who listened kindly with empathy and also offered some advice as to how to proceed on with my case. Due to my financial difficulties I could not engage them to represent me despite knowing that their legal fees are reasonable. That was in early 2017 & by year end, I contacted them again and that staff still remembered me and treated me nicely. Fast forward last mth in June 2018, I finally engaged GJC to represent me and I'm so pleased with that decision. Main reasons were that I felt so comfortable with the staff who handled my case with care and concern and most of all, great professionalism. Thank you GJC for helping me settle my legal case. Kudos esp to LL for being such a great help to me and making me feel so valued as a client.
U deserved more than 5 Stars ! Thank u so much & Well Done!

Gloria James-Civetta Co is one of the most trusted and reliable law firms. Handling their clients in the most possible ways gained them a a good reputation, loyalty and trust from their clients .They are supportive and helpful with their clients especially when it comes to their welfare. Having said that, without the help of Ms Sheryl Nuqui, I wouldn't know where am I going to be now or where my case will going to lead to.She was the one who advised me what is the best thing to do and what is not. I highly appreciate everything she did for me. Along with her and this company, I wish them all the best and success. More power and God bless!

My family is very greatful to Ms Muntaz for representing my child who was charged in the Youth Court and seemingly the sentencing would likely to be a probation in a Boy's Hostel. Through her humble beginning, she fully understood the meaning of poverty and the underprivileged, hence fought hard and intelligently for her clients, working relentlessly even she is on the company's overseas retreat. Her experience as a State Prosecutor has also gained her much insights into our criminal procedures and system. The end result? The Judge granted my child to be supervised at our home ! When someone not only helped you in court but also your family, gratitude must be given ! Thank you my learned friend........

Thank you Ms Beverly for the professional advise and services rendered.

It wass a pleasure working with Miss Lynda Lim. She has provided me countless advice, even if the questions were most of the time really basic. Her prompt response was something that I really appreciate as well.

I had a very positive experience with the GJC team. Gloria and Melanie were professional and highly competent. I would highly recommend them. Thank you!

I emailed to enquire and was contacted by Beverly Lim shortly.

Beverly upon hearing that I require immediate assistance, she dropped me a call right away and provided some really helpful advice. She was also readily contactable and replies promptly.

Thank you Beverly (:

i am very satisfied with the process and the time they took to help me get my letter of admin, they answered any doubts that I would have, and guided me on what to do next.
I thought the process would have been tedious and long, but they proved that it can be done within a month or so, and it did.

I had the good fortune of being assisted by Mr Amarjit and his legal team for a civil suit. They demonstrated good expertise, professionalism, strict adherence to ethics, process transparency and high efficiency. Besides, the office is conveniently located in a beautiful building within walking distance to high court. Highly recommended for result oriented individual.

Had started with my queries and was responsed timely and professionally despite not knowing whether I will engage the firm or not . Easiest decision for me to engage them eventually. Was rewarded expectally with efficient and professional services during the engagement . Thanks

Spoke with Gloria and she was great in terms of walking through my case and was very understanding and patient in listening to my queries. The firm put me in touch with someone almost immediately on my first call. Highly recommended

I have had a chance to seek some legal advice recently from the firm and it turned out to be very good experience for me especially my great thanks to Mr Amarjit Singh Sidhu for his support and guide.He is one of the best professionals I ever met who is always ready to help you even if it entails going extra mile.Mainly I appreciate the attitude and the sincere advice I received.We really need such professionals who are not solely motivated by money/profit and are there to help people in need.
Please keep maintaining these standards along with your assets like Mr Amarjit Singh.
A great thanks to Mr Amarjit and Gloria James-Civetta & Co.

Yvonne handled my child relocation case against my ex-wife with utmost professionalism. I went into the case with plenty of apprehension and anxiety. The odds were very much against me. Yvonne allayed my fears by giving prompt replies both on the phone as well as via email. Her advice were always based on the best interest on my child. She gave sound, quality and realistic advice without giving false hope. She chartered a strategy that enabled me to see light at the end of the tunnel.

In the end, we won the case, much to my relief.

Matrimonial cases are never easy to begin with. Yvonne and her assistant Michelle, made the uncertainty a little bit more bearable. For that, I am thankful.

Thank you, once again.

Recently I was put in the unfortunate position of having to fight for legal custody of my son who had been removed to another country.
Being an expat and with my son now not in Singapore I thought my chances of getting a favourable judgement in Singapore were slim at best.

At the initial meetings, the team at GJC confirmed my suspicions, indicating a successful outcome was far from certain.

I engaged Ms. Muntaz Binte Zainuddin; a Senior Legal Associate with the firm to lead the fight. Ms. Zainuddin perservered through the many obstacles, uncertainties and at times my dispondent attitude. She helped me understand the process and after a tough battle I was awarded Care custody and control of my son by the Family Justice Courts of the Republic of Singapore.

My heart felt thanks to Ms. Zainuddin and her support team at GJC for perservering with me and achieving a successful outcome and decision in the courts.

I've used the legal expertise of GJC extensively since 2014. They are professional, supportive, friendly and very experienced in their areas of law.

I have no hesitation in recommending them to others. They are worth every penny.

I am happy that the firm extend their warmth and attention to you without chasing them for a reply

Our company had engaged the services of Ms Muntaz regarding a dispute with our ex-employee. Since she had worked with MOM, she was able to give us valuable inputs about manpower laws. Thus, we were able to settle the matter without spending much.

Gloria James-Civetta & Co really turned my life upside down. Handling my divorce alone, Sheryl was the one who guided me through my case and she was there along the way. She was super friendly and showed empathy to my situation. Very personalized & heartfelt service!! i wouldn't have it any other way...
highly recommended!
Keep up the good work!!!

I would like to thank my lawyer Shereen Goklani, who has helped me to get my divorce procedure done. Through her advice I was able to take right action on right time.
I am grateful for the services provided by Gloria James-Civetta & Co.
Keep up your good work.
Thanks a lot!

Gloria shepherds a knowledgeable, professional and empathic legal team. Ms Muntaz Zainuddin was a wholly capable sherpa, displaying an acute balance of tact, propriety, patience and responsiveness a comforting ownership of my case, no less. In retrospect, definitely worth that call

Saw the positive review and cold called based on that. The man I spoke to was not willing to listen to any details over the phone. Not helpful and a little rude.

Excellent response time and very efficient in assisting me obtain my Letter of Administration. Michelle was very professional and helpful throughout the whole process. I strongly recommend their services.

It was a pleasure working with Michelle, entire process was very smooth and efficient. Michelle was also very friendly in guiding us through the process.

Hi just want to share my excellent experience service from Gloria James-Civetta & Co, they are very helpful in all the information that i need, I would like to thanks my lawyer Ms.Beverly Lim for providing me a very good and efficient service, their service is Highly recomended.

I am very statisfied with the letter of administration service provided by the firm. At first I thought the process was going to be a difficult one, but the firm proved me wrong by making it smooth and simple. I got the letter of administration quickly and it's effects are as explained to me. Thank you Michelle and the firm for the service provided, this firm truly exceeded my expectation.

I applied for a Personal Protection Order against my husband last year. It has been a very traumatic experience for me. I am unable to deal with him as he has been such a hurtful, cunning and spiteful person. He even falsely accused me of things that I did not do.

I am fortunate to have Ms Muntaz, Sheryl and Mr Peter Ong to assist me. They worked hard to make sure that it turned out well. I am so appreciative of all that they did, and I cannot thank them enough for their diligence and brilliance!

We lost a winning case because our lawyer decided not to fight the truth. The opposing lawyer totally outgunned and outmaneuvered our lawyer. We did not change our law firm and that was our biggest mistake which led to massive financial loss. Find a law firm that would really fight for you and your case.

Very efficient and competent law firm. They got my case settled very fast with minimum effort from my side compared to other law firms who charged much more and gave complicated answers.

Great legal team setup for your every legal needs. Consult the professionals with great service and eye for details.
