Kevin Liew

Head of Crime Practice

Kevin is a lawyer with broad litigation experience and an international background. Having lived in several countries and worked across a range of organisations, he brings a well-rounded perspective to complex and demanding matters.

He is both compassionate and incisive. He identifies what truly matters in a case without losing sight of the people affected by it. With clients, he is calm, clear, and methodical; in court, he is precise, focused, and disciplined in his advocacy.

Kevin is widely regarded for his sound judgment and steady composure. He prepares thoroughly, anticipates issues before they arise, and brings structure and clarity to critical stages of proceedings. Clients value his ability to explain difficult situations in practical terms, and colleagues value his reliability when matters require careful handling and strategic thinking.

Criminal Law

Kevin practices as a criminal defence lawyer with experience on both sides of the courtroom. Having worked in prosecution as well as defence, he understands how cases are built, how evidence is assessed, and where areas are most vulnerable to challenge.

He prepares his cases with care and precision, giving close attention to the facts, the applicable law, and the strategic choices that shape how a matter is run. He is thoughtful in developing case theories, realistic about risks, and deliberate in deciding what to pursue and what to leave aside.

This disciplined approach allows Kevin to present his clients’ cases clearly and persuasively, focusing on the issues that matter most and advancing their interests with sound judgment at every stage of the proceedings.

Civil Law

Kevin has worked in civil litigation at an international law firm, where he received training in rigorous legal analysis, strategic case preparation, and effective written advocacy.

He continues to practise in civil matters, bringing a careful and structured approach to each case. He is methodical in his review of documents and evidence, attentive to legal nuances, and able to work with complex material in a clear and organised manner.

These qualities allow him to present coherent arguments and manage matters efficiently from preparation through to resolution.
