    Man fined $26,000 for pretending to be


    lawyer

    SINGAPORE - The sole director of a company was fined $26,000


    on Thursday (Sept 14) for offences that included acting as a
    solicitor even though he is not a qualified lawyer. Singaporean
    Keith Thaddeus Kamal Tsukada, now 43, also sent letters on
    behalf of his clients, threatening legal action, despite lacking the
    necessary credentials and authorisation to do so.

    Tsukada, who runs IP Firm, which provides business and


    management consultancy services, pleaded guilty to four offences
    under the Legal Profession Act. Tsukada committed his offences
    between May 2014 and June 2015. He is also the sole registered
    director of research firm Invictus Intelligence Bureau.

    Deputy Public Prosecutor Kenneth Chin said: "The accused


    wilfully used descriptions on the websites of the said companies,
    implying that IP Firm is qualified to act as a solicitor when, in fact,
    IP Firm is not." He added that the company's website had
    statements such as "You are not just hiring a lawyer - but an
    innovative team specialising in the areas of law" and "we ensure
    the right legislative provision is put to use expeditiously".

    Later that month, Tsukada acted on behalf of Mr Singh and sent


    the woman a letter, demanding payment and threatening legal
    proceedings. The letter had "IP Arbitration and Litigation" on its
    letterhead.

    Mr Singh paid Tsukada $24,580 for his services. On Sept 3, 2014,


    the woman made a report to the Law Society of Singapore after
    receiving the letter. The Commercial Affairs Department later
    investigated the case.
