After my father passed away, the question of distributing his estate under faraid was something none of us in the family had dealt with before. Ahmad walked us through the process without rushing. He explained what the Shariah court would require and what our obligations were as beneficiaries. The whole engagement was handled with patience.

I needed a power of attorney prepared for a property matter in Singapore. Sharmila handled everything efficiently — the document was reviewed, drafted, and properly attested within two days. She also explained what additional steps I might need on the Singapore end. Very practical and straightforward.

Nilai, NS
We had an outstanding payment issue with the main contractor on a project in Nilai. Wei Jian assessed the situation quickly and advised us on whether CIPAA adjudication was the right route. He was clear about what it would involve and did not oversell the outcome. The adjudication submission was well prepared and we eventually recovered the amount owed.

A family matter relating to matrimonial assets had reached the point where we needed proper advice rather than relying on what relatives suggested. The team at Vicarum was discreet and took time to understand the full picture before giving any guidance. I appreciated that they never made me feel pressured about next steps.

Required a statutory declaration for an immigration application. The team was accommodating about timing and the whole thing was done in a single day. Clear instructions, proper attestation, no complications. Would come back if I needed anything similar in the future.

Chan Hui Ling
Rempit, NS
Our company had a contract dispute with a subcontractor that had been dragging on. Vicarum reviewed the contract and identified a few provisions that were working against us. They suggested negotiation before adjudication, which ultimately resolved the issue faster. Their read of the situation was accurate.

Shariah Estate Advisory
A family approached Vicarum following the passing of their patriarch. The estate included both property and financial assets, and the beneficiaries were uncertain how faraid applied to each category under Malaysian Shariah law.
The team categorised the assets, identified the applicable faraid shares for each beneficiary, and guided the family through the Shariah court process. Documentation was prepared and submitted on the family's behalf.
The estate was distributed according to faraid within three months of the initial consultation. All beneficiaries received their entitlements and the family avoided a dispute that had been developing before legal advice was sought.
Construction Law Advisory
A subcontractor was owed approximately MYR 180,000 by a main contractor following the completion of electrical works on a residential development in Negeri Sembilan. The main contractor had withheld payment citing alleged defects.
Vicarum reviewed the subcontract and the alleged defect claims. An adjudication submission under CIPAA 2012 was prepared, supported by a review of the relevant project records and a response to the main contractor's position.
The adjudicator found in the subcontractor's favour. The main contractor released the withheld sum within the period set by the adjudication decision. The matter was resolved without court proceedings.
Notarial Services
A Malaysian client needed to authorise a representative in Australia to manage and transfer property on his behalf. The Australian solicitor required a specific form of power of attorney, notarized and apostilled under Malaysian authority.
Vicarum coordinated with the client and the Australian solicitor to confirm the required form. The document was drafted, reviewed for compliance with Australian requirements, and attested by the firm's notary public.
The power of attorney was accepted by the Australian solicitor and the property transfer proceeded without issue. The entire notarial engagement from initial instruction to delivery of the authenticated document took four working days.
Acknowledged for consistent legal service delivery within the Seremban district. March 2025.
