About Dodoso
Your trusted legal partner in Singapore since 2015
Dodoso was established in 2015 when three lawyers with complementary specializations decided to create a practice focused on serving both local and international clients in Singapore. Starting from a small office in the Central Business District, we grew organically through client referrals and consistent results.
Our founding partners brought together 45 years of combined experience across corporate law, immigration, and commercial litigation. This foundation allowed us to handle complex cross-border matters from day one. We opened our current office at 35 Frankel Avenue in 2018, expanding our team to 12 qualified lawyers and 8 support staff.
What Drives Our Practice
We work to make legal processes accessible and understandable. Singapore's legal framework offers significant opportunities for businesses and individuals, but navigating it requires knowledge of local regulations, procedures, and practical considerations.
Our approach centers on clear communication. We explain options, potential outcomes, and realistic timelines. Each client receives direct access to the lawyer handling their matter, not just administrative staff. This structure ensures continuity and accountability throughout the engagement.
Our Focus Areas
We concentrate on corporate structuring, work pass applications, contract disputes, and intellectual property registration. Our lawyers hold degrees from National University of Singapore, Singapore Management University, and accredited overseas institutions. Three partners are accredited mediators with the Singapore Mediation Centre. We maintain active memberships in the Law Society of Singapore and participate in continuing legal education programs to stay current with regulatory changes.
Core Principles
Transparency
We provide itemized fee estimates before starting work. Clients receive monthly billing statements showing time spent and tasks completed. No hidden charges or surprise invoices.
Responsiveness
Email queries receive replies within 24 hours on business days. Urgent matters get same-day attention. We maintain updated case files accessible to clients through our secure portal.
Practical Solutions
We assess whether legal action serves your interests or if alternative resolution makes more sense. Sometimes a well-drafted letter achieves better results than litigation.
Local Knowledge
Our team understands Singapore's regulatory environment, government agency procedures, and local business practices. This knowledge helps avoid delays and unnecessary complications.
