Common Questions

Things people often ask us

How soon should I contact a lawyer after a family member passes away?
There is no single right answer — every family's circumstances differ. That said, it is generally helpful to reach out within a few weeks, as some administrative matters do carry timelines. We will never pressure you; when you feel ready, we are here to explain what needs attention and when.
What happens if there is no will?
In Malaysia, estates without a will are administered under the Distribution Act 1958 (for non-Muslims) or Islamic inheritance rules (for Muslims). The process is a little longer, but it is entirely manageable. We will walk you through what applies to your family's situation step by step.
How long does estate administration usually take?
Timelines vary considerably depending on the size of the estate, whether there is a will, and the complexity of the assets involved. Straightforward matters may resolve in a few months; others take longer. We will give you a realistic picture of what to expect once we have reviewed the details together.
Are your fees clearly stated in advance?
Yes. We share our fees plainly before any work begins, and we will not proceed without your understanding and agreement. For each service, the starting fee is published openly on our services page. Any additional steps are discussed and agreed upon beforehand.
Can I simply come in to ask a few questions without committing to anything?
Absolutely. Our first service — Understanding an Estate — is designed precisely for this. You come, we listen, we explain what applies. Any further step is entirely your choice, and there is no expectation that you will proceed.
Is my information kept confidential?
Professional confidentiality is a cornerstone of legal practice in Malaysia. Everything you share with us is held in strict confidence, in accordance with our obligations as registered advocates and solicitors.
