Our Three
Practice Areas

Each service is defined, scoped, and delivered with care — from an initial consultation through to the final set of deliverables.

Our Method

How Each Engagement Works

Every engagement at zivantoes follows the same structured approach, adapted to the specific practice area. We begin with a consultation to understand your situation, agree on scope and deliverables in writing, and then proceed in defined stages with regular communication throughout.

This approach reflects a belief that good legal work requires clarity of purpose from the start — and that clients deserve to understand what they are receiving and when, not discover it at the end.

1

Initial Consultation

We listen to your situation and confirm which service is appropriate. No work begins before this step is complete.

2

Engagement Letter

A written document outlines scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees. Both parties agree before work proceeds.

3

Active Engagement

Work proceeds in structured stages with regular updates. Draft documents are reviewed before finalisation.

4

Delivery & Walkthrough

Final deliverables are provided along with a session to explain their content and how they should be used.

Across All Services

Professional Standards

Client Confidentiality

Information shared is protected by professional confidentiality obligations and our own internal data handling policies.

Written Scope Agreement

All engagements are defined in writing before work begins. No assumptions, no hidden scope, no late additions without discussion.

The team actively participates in continuing professional development — including PDPC updates and Law Society training — to stay current.

Ethical Practice Standards

All practice members operate under the Law Society of Singapore's Professional Conduct Rules and ethical obligations.

Transparent Billing

Fees are agreed before work begins. Invoices reflect what was agreed. Changes to scope are discussed before they affect the cost.
