Re: child custody

Please note that our firm only take on family law cases if it is a joint petition for a divorce. Any other related family matters, we advice you to seek a law firm in Malaysia to assist you. Alternatively, call us and we will recommend a family lawyer. A good law firm in Singapore would be Harry Elias but call us and I will recommend which lawyer to contact in the law firm in Singapore.

Thank you.
