Three Lawyers from PKWA Law Named in ALB Singapore Rising Stars 2026

,

Three of our featured lawyers — Jessica Chow, Sabrina Chau, and Athelia Ong — have been included in the Singapore Rising Stars 2026 list published by Asian Legal Business.

This recognition is awarded to promising lawyers under 40 who have demonstrated strong capabilities and earned the respect of clients and peers alike.

All three practise in family and divorce law, covering areas such as matrimonial proceedings, child custody matters, and asset division. Their work involves navigating complex legal and personal issues, where both technical knowledge and a thoughtful approach are essential.

The recognition of three lawyers from the same practice highlights the firm’s depth in family law and its commitment to maintaining high professional standards.

We extend our congratulations to Jessica, Sabrina, and Athelia on their inclusion in this year’s list.
