FIRMPRO · RAFFLES PLACEBOUTIQUE CORPORATE & COMMERCIAL FIRM
SCOPE · REVIEW · ADVISE · RESOLVE
Advice first, then paper — a boutique Singapore firm that scopes the risk before it drafts the clause.
FirmPro is a senior-led legal practice on Battery Road advising founders, directors and in-house teams on corporate law, commercial contracts and dispute resolution — with clear engagement terms, conflicts checks and plain-language risk notes. We are a law firm, not a document-template store, not a debt-relief scheme, and not a bar-exam course.

The Chambers
A Singapore legal-services firm that reads the deadlock clause before the signing page.
Most commercial problems arrive dressed as paperwork: a shareholder agreement that looked standard until the drag-along clause met a deadlocked board; a supplier contract where the indemnity was quietly broader than the liability cap; an employment letter that never defined who owned the code. FirmPro is a boutique law firm in the Raffles Place CBD — we scope the matter, explain the risk in plain English, then draft, negotiate or resolve with honest engagement terms. We do not sell templates off the shelf, franchise packages, or guaranteed outcomes.
FirmPro Pte. Ltd. advises clients on corporate law, commercial contracts, incorporation, shareholder arrangements, employment law, intellectual property, regulatory compliance and dispute resolution for Singapore and cross-border matters. Every consultation begins with a conflicts check; every engagement is confirmed in a written retainer. Outcomes depend on facts and law — nothing on this site is legal advice or a promise of results.

6Core practice disciplines at Battery Road
Figures are illustrative of firm experience — not guarantees of future outcomes or identical results on your matter.
Method
Scope. Review. Advise. Resolve.
Four stages, one vertical column rail — the way senior counsel actually works a matter file, not a sales funnel.
Document & fact review
Contracts, board minutes, correspondence — we read what exists before we suggest changes or a dispute pathway.
Plain-language risk note
You receive a boardroom brief: options, likely regulatory hooks, and what litigation or arbitration would cost in time and fees.
Draft, negotiate or litigate
We execute the agreed path — drafting, mediation, arbitration support or litigation coordination — within the signed scope.
Before drafting
Conflicts checks, engagement letters, and risk notes you can share with your board.
We will not begin drafting until scope is agreed. That means a conflicts check against existing clients, a retainer that states fees and deliverables, and a plain-language risk note when the stakes warrant it. Founders and in-house teams use FirmPro because the advice survives a board meeting — not because we promise guaranteed wins.
Our Singapore legal practice handles negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation support where engaged — always with confidentiality and honest limits on what law and facts can deliver.
Practice areas
Six disciplines along the navy rail.
Corporate structuring
Incorporation, cap tables, director duties and statutory compliance for Singapore Pte. Ltd. entities.
Commercial contracts
Drafting and negotiation of supply, SaaS, licensing and services agreements with liability caps and indemnity review.
Shareholder agreements
Drag-along, deadlock clauses, vesting and founder exits documented for defensible records.
Employment advisory
Executive contracts, retrenchment exercises and Employment Act compliance with reputational care.
Intellectual property
Confidentiality, IP assignment and trade-secret protection aligned with who actually owns the code.
Dispute resolution
Negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation support — early advice is cheaper than late filing.
Selected work
Two illustrative matters — anonymised, not advertised as guarantees.
A Raffles Place SME whose supplier indemnity outran its liability cap
We reviewed the master services agreement, mapped indemnity exposure against the cap, and negotiated a carve-out schedule before renewal. Scope: contract review and negotiation — outcome depended on counterparty appetite, not a FirmPro guarantee.
Two co-founders untangling a deadlock clause before a raise
Shareholder agreement drafting with drag-along mechanics, board reserved matters and a plain-language risk note for incoming investors. Confidentiality preserved; no client names published.
Mini FAQ
Is this site legal advice?
No. Information here is general. A solicitor-client relationship forms only after a conflicts check and signed engagement letter.
Do you guarantee outcomes?
No. Results depend on facts and law. We scope honestly and explain limits before you instruct us.
Are you a template store or debt-relief brand?
No. FirmPro is a boutique legal-services firm — professional counsel, not off-the-shelf documents or debt-erasure schemes.
Describe your matter in plain language — we respond with scope, not a sales script.

Request a consultationFirmPro provides professional legal services — advising clients on corporate, commercial, contract, employment, intellectual property, compliance and dispute matters in Singapore. Information on this website is general in nature and is NOT legal advice; reading it does not create a solicitor-client relationship. No such relationship is formed until we have completed a conflicts check and both parties have signed an engagement letter. Legal outcomes depend on the specific facts and the applicable law and cannot be guaranteed; any matters, examples or figures shown are illustrative of past work and are not a promise of identical future results. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information through this site before we confirm we can act for you. We are a legal-services firm — not a legal-document template retailer, not a franchise opportunity, not a bar-exam course, and not a debt-relief or ‘guaranteed outcome’ scheme.
