Siraj Shaik Aziz

“Before Siraj was on my case, I was facing up to 10-12 months in jail for motor insurance fraud and I was prepared to PG. Siraj helped to write to Prosecution with all the documents about my family situation which made me offend and about the delay in investigations. Siraj convinced Prosecution to ask for a 3-month jail sentence instead and I am able to move on with my life faster.”

“I claimed to trial for 2 charges over a road rage incident. Siraj went into every detail of the incident from the measurements of my vehicle to the distance from where the other party was causing damage to my vehicle. He took the effort to come down after office hours to do a re-enactment of what happened. Documentation was well-prepared before court hearing. I was prepared for my trial. In the end, I got acquitted for one charge and the other charge was reduced for which I only paid a fine.”

“I was facing 2 charges for hitting and insulting a police officer when drunk which will normally mean a jail term. Siraj helped me to write to Prosecution to ask for a warning with conditions and he advised me on the documents I needed to prepare. I got a warning letter in the end. Thanks a lot for your past help!”

“I was facing 1 CDSA charge and 9-10 months jail before Siraj from Silvester Legal LLC was assigned to my case. Siraj helped me write to Prosecution and get them to agree to probation even though I was an adult. I am grateful for his assistance and for giving me a second chance in life to change.”

“Mr Siraj help me through my most difficult times of my life. He defended me whole heartedly. He is patient and show me a lot of concern. He will go through every single detail and ask me for opinion. Thank you for defending me.”

“I was a fugitive. I surrendered myself at Woodlands Checkpoint in Oct 2018 after an uneventful period of 10 years away from home. I had cases ranging from simple theft to cheating which was classified under the various sections of the penal code. The worst part was, I returned unprepared. While being remanded, I came to know about Legal Aid where lawyers represent you pro bono. I was then assigned to this big young man, Siraj. My first impression of him was like, “Can this guy really handle my cases?” Everything changed when he started talking. I have had some experience with lawyers, who generally speak in “legal code” which makes it difficult to understand the full picture. As for Siraj, he was crystal clear on every phase of the case, without intimidating me. I was able to ask many questions and attain all the information I needed to make the decision to move forward. I find it comforting to be represented by someone who is extremely knowledgeable and dedicated. From the beginning to the end, I felt confident in my legal representation and was highly satisfied with the service he provided. I was immediately impressed by his respectfulness, transparency, and legitimate interest. Throughout the proceedings, Siraj took the time to understand my cases and promptly developed an effective and impressive mitigation that led my sentence to be reduced. Frankly, I never did expect him to speak so eloquently. He was fantastic. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to convey my greatest thanks and appreciation to Siraj for his professionalism and dedication throughout the period of my proceedings. I am very grateful, and I have no hesitation to highly recommend him for any legal matters. He is the next rising star in the legal realm.”

“Mr Siraj took on my son’s case pro bono from June to December 2019. He is an empathetic and competent lawyer and had spent much time explaining to me the intricacies of the court proceedings. He also took much time to advise and to update me on his mitigation plan as well as to seek clarification from the IMH psychiatrist for a better report on my son’s condition. My son is doing well in his probation.”

Mr Siraj help me through my most difficult times of my life. He defend me whole heartedly. He is patient and show me a lot of concern. He will go through every single detail and ask me for opinion. Thank you for defending me.

"Highly satisfied with Mr Siraj’s services. He is definitely a great attorney who serves from his heart, giving me advices and what outcome to expect. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone else in the future!"

"I approached Siraj from Silvester Legal as referred by a close friend. I previously engaged another law firm for my criminal case but they were unable to help me get a reduction in my sentence. After my close friend’s advice, I decided to look for Siraj for help. My first consultation with him left a very deep impression on me as he pointed out many things to help my case and was very transparent, which was something my previous lawyer lacked. His representations were very well done and showcased the amount of experience and knowledge he had. He was also able to help me get a huge reduction in my sentence, from a mandatory jail term to only a fine. I was very satisfied with his service and I will strongly recommend him."

“Life after getting on the wrong side of the law will be immensely stressful. You’ll lose something as a consequence. It can be sleep or your job. In my case it was both. Amidst my struggles, however, I gained a friend and counsel in Siraj. He was a beacon of hope and a source of objective, impartial help and advice. I was fortunate to come across Siraj who offered his help readily, resulting in a structured Mitigation Plea that enabled me to get the due justice for my actions. I strongly recommend Siraj to anyone who think they’re alone. He’ll be there with you to navigate the complex and uncertain world of the law.”

"I was involved in a high-profile case involving pornography material possession in Singapore. Throughout my case, Siraj was the consummate professional who spared no expense or effort in preparing, researching, and advocating for my defence. Siraj is also an attentive individual who took pains to listen to my concerns and feedback on my defence, and never once left me feeling without support or grounding in reality when I was left with neither from general society at large. Siraj ultimately managed to secure me a fine to conclude my criminal case, as opposed to the other co-accused who had to serve jail time. I am grateful for his support and professional assistance, and I would heartily recommend him to be anybody's defence counsel when they are in dire straits."

“Our Company was sued for an amount of over $155,000 by a disgruntled ex-employee alleging a non-existent commission agreement, alleged forced expenses and expired outstanding medical fees. We approached Silvester Legal to assist us to defend the Company against the frivolous and trumped-up claims of the ex-employee. Walter Alexander and Siraj Shaik Aziz took the matter all the way to trial and successfully resisted the case of the ex-employee to such an extent that only $50 of expired outstanding medical fees was granted to him in the end. We were very impressed by their professionalism and expertise throughout this dispute, which also required an understanding of Japanese work culture. In addition, they tried every aspect to understand our situation and our communication never failed. They suggested to us all the possible ways to fight against the ex-employee, which led us to think of a better way to manage our Company such as redraft our outdated Employment agreement. I highly recommend them for all your litigation needs.”

"Great experience overall having Siraj to defend me. Siraj understands his client, very insightful and is an expert in his field. Truly a professional and marvelous individual."

“Thank you Siraj for his patience and guidance helping me through these difficult times. I am grateful for the help and dedication. Siraj is also thoughtful about keeping my legal fee affordable and honest upfront about my case. Keep up the good work!”

“I’ve engaged Walter and Siraj to help me in for remote gaming act which I was charged for. They listen and deeply understood my situation and fought on without hesitation to bring forth a unexpected victory before the trial even started. I got a fine in the end when the Prosecution’s initial plea offer was 8 months. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needed legal consultation.”

"I was given some charges by the AGC awhile back and was extremely worried because the potential consequences included a custodial sentence. I found Siraj through silvesterlegal.com and found many positive reviews from the singapore legal advice website, thus I decided to enquire through their system with regards to my case. It was picked up by Siraj and he spent more than an hour to kindly talk me through my options and was very willing to provide advice even before getting any confirmation on whether I would engage his services. This showed me that Siraj really cares beyond just seeing numbers when talking to clients. He also advised me to wait for the AGC's charges before engaging a lawyer as they may very well just choose to drop the charges and I would be able to save money this way. Unfortunately, weeks later I heard back that the AGC decided to proceed with my charges and without hesitation I chose to engage Siraj to help me with my case. What followed was a very painful few months of back and forth between Siraj and the AGC. Throughout this process, my family and I can feel the amount of effort that Siraj puts into creating his case for us and his professionalism in handling everything. I ended up getting a better result than what was pushed for by the AGC and I cannot thank Siraj enough for his help and his representations in getting that result. His eloquence and work ethics even impressed the judge, who commented that he trusts Siraj's work and believes that Siraj leaves no stones unturned when representing someone. Rest assured that Siraj will definitely do his best to represent you on your case and I can highly recommend him to anyone who is in trouble and needs a lawyer to defend you for your case.
