Common Questions

Frequently Asked

How are instructions received?
The firm ordinarily receives instructions from a solicitor acting for the lay client. Written instructions setting out the matter in sufficient detail are required before any substantive work begins. Where appropriate, the firm also accepts direct access instructions from lay clients who have been referred by their solicitor, or in circumstances permitted under Bar Council of Malaysia rules.
How is the fee for advocacy determined?
Advocacy fees are quoted following review of the brief and reflect the preparation genuinely required for the matter. The fee indication provided from MYR 2,400 is a starting point; complex appeals involving extensive written materials or multiple days of hearing will be quoted at a higher figure following brief review. The firm does not provide an indicative fee until it has seen enough of the matter to quote responsibly.
What courts does the firm appear in?
The firm's advocacy practice covers the High Court at Kota Kinabalu, the Court of Appeal sitting in Putrajaya, and the Federal Court on referral. The firm's practitioners are admitted to appear before all Malaysian superior courts and hold current practising certificates issued by the Bar Council.
Within what timeframe are written opinions delivered?
Delivery timeframes for written opinions are confirmed at the point instructions are accepted. The firm's practice is to agree on a delivery date in writing before commencing work. Standard matters are typically delivered within fourteen working days; urgent instructions may be accommodated at a supplementary fee, subject to the firm's availability.
What should be prepared before a procedural conference?
Solicitors arranging a procedural conference should provide a brief outline of the proceedings in writing in advance — the nature of the claim, the stage of proceedings, and the specific procedural question to be addressed. This allows the conference to be productive within the two-hour allocation. A written note summarising the discussion is provided by the firm following the conference.
Does the firm handle criminal or family law matters?
The firm's practice is confined to civil and commercial law — appellate advocacy, written civil opinions, and procedural conferences in civil proceedings. Instructions in criminal, family, or other specialised areas fall outside the firm's present practice and would not be accepted.
