Rohit K Singh
REGAL LAW LLC | 3 years experience | Bahasa Indonesia, English, Hindi, Malay, Urdu
Rohit K. Singh is a criminal defence lawyer whose practice is focused primarily on criminal litigation, investigations, regulatory enforcement matters, and advocacy before tribunals and courts in Singapore. Having cut his teeth in criminal defence work from the outset of his career, Rohit has represented individuals at every stage of the criminal justice process, from investigations and arrest through to trial, sentencing, appeals, and post-conviction proceedings.
Rohit regularly acts as a criminal lawyer in Singapore for individuals facing police investigations, arrests, CNB investigations, commercial crime investigations, white-collar crime allegations, and regulatory enforcement actions. He frequently engages investigative and prosecutorial authorities before charges are preferred, with a view towards achieving the best possible outcome for his clients through strategic and early intervention.
Rohit regularly advises and represents clients in matters involving theft, cheating, criminal breach of trust, extortion, outrage of modesty, molestation, rape and sexual offences, criminal intimidation, harassment, voluntarily causing hurt, voluntarily causing grievous hurt, domestic violence, family violence, maid abuse, abuse of vulnerable persons, child-related offences, rioting, unlawful assembly, money laundering, corruption, customs offences, immigration offences, road traffic offences, vice-related offences, and offences under the Penal Code and various regulatory statutes. He has acted for both complainants and accused persons in domestic abuse and family violence matters, including applications involving Personal Protection Orders, as well as criminal proceedings arising from allegations of assault within family settings.
A significant aspect of Rohit's practice involves engaging authorities at the earliest possible stage of an investigation. He firmly believes that strategic intervention before charges are preferred can often have a decisive impact on the eventual outcome of a case. He regularly prepares representations to investigative and prosecutorial authorities with the objective of securing No Further Action outcomes, Stern Warnings, Conditional Warnings, composition offers, reduced charges, or alternative resolutions where appropriate.
Rohit has successfully acted for clients during police and regulatory investigations where early engagement resulted in investigations being discontinued or resolved without prosecution. He adopts a proactive and practical approach, guiding clients through statement recording sessions, interviews, arrests, bail matters, enforcement actions, search and seizure exercises, and regulatory investigations while safeguarding their legal rights throughout the process.
His criminal practice extends to drug-related offences and CNB investigations. Rohit has experience handling Drug Rehabilitation Centre ("DRC") matters, DRC appeals, and representations relating to Enhanced Drug Supervision Orders ("EDSO"). He regularly advances rehabilitation-focused arguments supported by medical, factual, and legal evidence, seeking outcomes that emphasise treatment and reintegration rather than incarceration where the circumstances permit. He believes that engaging CNB and relevant authorities at an early stage frequently provides the best opportunity to secure rehabilitative outcomes and has successfully obtained favourable outcomes for suitable clients.
Rohit also possesses significant experience in regulatory and enforcement matters involving the Ministry of Manpower ("MOM") and Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore ("IRAS"). He advises businesses and individuals facing employment-related investigations, work pass offences, CPF-related issues, tax investigations, compliance breaches, and enforcement proceedings. He is experienced in navigating complex statutory frameworks and engaging regulators to mitigate exposure and achieve practical solutions.
In addition to criminal litigation, Rohit regularly appears before disciplinary and regulatory tribunals. He has acted in proceedings before the Council for Estate Agencies ("CEA") involving allegations of professional misconduct, regulatory breaches, suspension proceedings, and compliance issues affecting property agents and real estate professionals.
His advocacy experience extends beyond conventional criminal proceedings. Rohit has undertaken work before military tribunals, including General Court Martial proceedings, as well as matters before the Criminal Law (Temporary Provisions) Act ("CLTPA") Advisory Committee. In CLTPA matters, he prepares detailed representations and submissions challenging detention orders and advocating for release, variation, or reduction of detention periods.
Rohit has represented clients before a broad range of forums, ranging from disciplinary tribunals and regulatory bodies to the State Courts and the Singapore High Court. He has also acted in matters involving youth offenders, probation applications, reformative training, community-based sentences, and regulatory disciplinary proceedings. This breadth of experience allows him to provide practical, strategic, and tailored advice regardless of the complexity of the matter.
He has a particular focus on youth offender cases and firmly believes that rehabilitation should remain a central consideration for young offenders. Rohit regularly advances applications for probation, community-based sentences, reformative training alternatives, and other rehabilitative sentencing options. His mitigation strategies focus not only on the offending conduct but also on the underlying circumstances that contributed to the offence, with the ultimate aim of promoting long-term reintegration into society.
Clients value Rohit's meticulous preparation, accessibility, pragmatic advice, and firm advocacy. He is committed to achieving proportionate and just outcomes while guiding clients through what is often one of the most challenging periods of their lives.
