Who We Are
We are a two-lawyer firm with support staff.
Each file is personally handled by a lawyer, with full internal oversight. Our Managing Partner is a senior criminal and civil litigator now focusing on business law. Our younger lawyer is trained under her and is steadily expanding in litigation and corporate work. We may be small, but our work is sharp — and clients often stay with us for years.

Fees are based on complexity and justified by law. We provide honest estimates upon enquiry. For conveyancing and fixed-fee matters, we follow the Sabah Advocates’ scale. We’re not a volume-based firm. We work closely with the few we take on. As advocates in Sabah, we do not publish fees or rates online. Engagement terms, scope, and legal costs will be discussed transparently at the beginning of each brief. All quotations comply with the applicable Advocate’s Remuneration Rules.
