Looking for a Lawyer to meet your Syariah Law Concerns?
Speak to our Dedicated and Experienced Team!

You may consult a lawyer at any stage of your divorce proceedings. You would have to note that as the divorce proceedings goes along or if the divorce proceedings is at an advanced stage, it could potentially get more difficult for our lawyer to assist. The Court would have given the relevant directions to move your case towards resolution or closure. As such, it is better to see a lawyer at an early stage in the divorce proceedings or before you make the divorce application.

You may apply for your own divorce. You would be described in the proceedings and in legal language to be ‘acting in person’. But you will not be exempt from the legal and formal requirements of Court proceedings. This includes the preparation of documents, the timely filing of Court documents, the payment of filing fees and attendance at ALL court hearings.

Do remember that the Syariah Court is an adjudicating body. The court does not provide legal advice. A divorce could potentially be a difficult experience for a self-represented person.

Having a good lawyer by your side would not only help you navigate the Court process but it would greatly assist you in reaching a mutually beneficial outcome.

Our lawyers are well-equipped with the relevant skills and knowledge to move your case with better ease and make the correct applications to solve your divorce issues (E.g. Variation of Court order or decree, PPO Applications etc). Our lawyers could also help in adoption proceedings, nuptial agreements and preparing deeds of separation where necessary.
