Gan Kam Yuin

Assistant Registrar, Supreme Court

District Judge

Kam Yuin graduated from the National University of Singapore and maintained an active practice for more than 27 years before entering the Judicial Service in 2019. Her strong background as a practitioner has enriched her time at the Supreme Court.

During her years at the Bar, Kam Yuin practised mainly in commercial litigation and civil dispute resolution, including mediation and arbitration. She was lead counsel in a wide range of matters at all levels of the Singapore judicial system, including the Court of Appeal and the Singapore International Commercial Court. In addition, she undertook advisory and drafting work for clients from diverse industries and backgrounds.

Believing that a great deal of learning takes place in the spaces between us, Kam Yuin welcomes opportunities to engage with young lawyers and encourage them in the acquisition of the good foundational skills needed for a long and rewarding career at the Bar.
