Chin May C.

Singapore, US-Trained Lawyer | Corporate, Contracts, Legal Drafting

Singapore-trained lawyer with 25+ years of legal and corporate experience, providing practical support in corporate law, commercial contracts, legal research, regulatory compliance and litigation support. I help businesses, lawyers and entrepreneurs with: • Corporate & Commercial Law — company formation, corporate documentation, shareholder matters and governance • Commercial Contracts — drafting, review and negotiation of NDAs, service agreements, SaaS/cloud agreements, employment contracts and other business contracts • Legal Research & Writing — legal research, opinions, memoranda, case analysis and regulatory research • Litigation Support — pleadings, affidavits, document review, case research, chronology and litigation preparation • Regulatory & Compliance — corporate governance, PDPA/data protection, licensing, regulatory requirements and cross-border matters • Malaysian Corporate Support — company incorporation and related corporate documentation for eligible businesses My approach is practical and commercially focused: I identify the legal and business issues, explain them clearly, and produce work that is usable rather than unnecessarily complicated. I have worked across private practice, in-house legal/corporate roles and legal research, including as a Visiting Senior Research Fellow at the EW Barker Centre for Law and Business, National University of Singapore. Clients value my thoroughness, responsiveness and ability to understand the commercial objective behind a legal task. If you need a senior legal professional who can step into an existing matter, research the issue, review or draft the documents, and move the work forward, I would be happy to discuss your project.
