Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What documents do I need to begin a probate application in Malaysia?
Typically you will need the original will (if one exists), the deceased's death certificate, identity documents for all beneficiaries, and a list of the estate's assets and liabilities. We will walk you through exactly what is needed for your specific situation during an initial consultation.
How long does probate usually take in Malaysia?
Straightforward estates with a valid will and cooperative beneficiaries can be resolved in three to six months. More complex matters, or those where documents are incomplete, may take longer. We provide realistic timelines once we have reviewed the estate details.
Can a will be challenged in Malaysia, and on what grounds?
Yes. A will may be contested if there are questions about the testator's mental capacity at the time of signing, undue influence, fraud, or whether proper formalities were observed. Our team can assess the strength of any such claim and explain what steps are open to you.
What is the difference between a Muslim and non-Muslim estate in Malaysia?
Muslim estates are governed by Islamic inheritance law (Faraid), administered through Syariah courts and Amanah Raya. Non-Muslim estates follow the Distribution Act 1958 and are handled through the civil court system. We advise on both frameworks and will clarify which applies to your family's circumstances.
What does Will and Estate Planning cost, and what does it include?
Will drafting starts from RM 245. This covers a consultation to understand your wishes, preparation of the will document, and a review session to confirm the wording reflects your intentions. More complex estates with multiple properties or business interests may involve additional steps, which we will discuss openly before you decide to proceed.
Is my information kept private?
All information shared with us is held in strict professional confidence, in accordance with legal professional privilege and our own privacy commitments. We do not disclose client details to third parties without your consent, except as required by law.
