Patience Law LLC: Family Law and Conveyancing Guidance at Westgate Tower

On the seventh floor of Westgate Tower, overlooking Jurong East, Patience Law LLC describes itself as a "harbour of hope" for clients working through some of the hardest legal moments in their lives. The firm pairs compassionate family law guidance with efficient conveyancing solutions, and backs both with in-house counselling support rather than treating law and emotional wellbeing as separate concerns.

A Managing Director With Deep Conveyancing Experience

The firm is led by managing director Denny Lin, who was called to the Singapore Bar and holds a Doctor of Jurisprudence from the Singapore University of Social Sciences. His academic background is unusually varied for a lawyer — a BA in Recording Arts with First Class Honours from Middlesex University sits alongside a Diploma in International Arbitration and a Specialist Diploma in Relationship and Marital Counselling, plus more than two decades of experience in education before his legal career.

That experience shows up most clearly in the numbers. Between 2013 and 2025, Mr Lin personally handled close to 10,000 conveyancing transactions, including 2,861 cases in a single year, 2018. His conveyancing practice extends into the more complex end of the spectrum: properties held under trust, part-share purchases and sales, transfers pursuant to court orders, purchases of recess areas, amalgamation of land, transactions involving shop-houses or mixed-use developments, and matters involving bankrupts or the Official Assignee.

Family Law With Counselling Built In

On the family law side, Mr Lin has handled contested custody, care and control matters, divorce and its ancillary proceedings, division of matrimonial assets, personal protection order trials, and enforcement of maintenance trials. He is also familiar with international law, China (PRC) law, company asset valuation, and digital assets including cryptocurrencies, and has worked collaboratively with foreign lawyers on cross-border issues.

What distinguishes the practice is its mediation and counselling credentials. Mr Lin is an accredited Mediator and Family Mediator with the Singapore Mediation Centre, an internationally accredited Mediator under the Singapore International Mediation Institute, a certified Mediation Advocate under the International Mediation Institute, and a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. He holds specialist training in Collaborative Family Practice and Family Therapeutic Justice, along with Cross-Border Family Mediation specialising in international Hague Convention child abduction cases, and is also an accredited mediator with China's Guangzhou Multi-faceted Dispute Resolution Centre.

Practice Areas

Patience Law's practice areas span family law — including divorce, child custody, pre-nuptial agreements, probate, deputyship under the Mental Capacity Act, and protection orders — alongside conveyancing and real estate dispute resolution covering sales and purchases, decoupling, trust deeds, and HDB or land amalgamation matters. The firm also handles litigation, international arbitration and cross-border dispute resolution, offers individual, couple and divorce-related counselling, and provides other services including wills, deeds poll, lasting power of attorney, tenancy and employment contracts, and corporate and business advisory work.

Beyond Standard Practice

The firm also lists bespoke offerings such as special projects and requirements, personalised corporate advisory, and attending to clients overseas, including overseas travel — reflecting a practice built to flex around specific client needs rather than a fixed, one-size-fits-all service.
