Client Commendations: “Michelle goes the extra mile. I had to reach out to her while working overseas. Though telcon was our mode of communication, I always felt like she was just next door. Her reassuring advice helped me build my mental strength. Michelle thinks one step ahead and ensured our proposals were future-ready. 20 years on, I am still benefiting from what she did for me. Her genuineness to uplift the community around her, to always extend help, can be clearly seen by the fact that my daughter chose to pursue a similar career path.” “Michelle’s ability is to very well understand the emotions running with all parties and manage the situation professionally without provoking or hurting the other party, essential for the wellbeing of the children involved in any divorce case, and to move on with co-parenting once the case is over.” 107 www.lawyer-monthly.com Lawyer Monthly Legal Awards 2024 About Michelle Areas of Expertise • Family and Matrimonial Law • Wills and Probate Michelle Woodworth 180 Clemenceau Avenue Haw Par Centre #02-02, Singapore 239922 Tel: +65 6622 0366 Email: admin@qwp.sg www.qwp.sg
