What Clients Say
A selection of feedback from families we have worked with over the past year.
Nora Faridah
Petaling Jaya, Selangor
I was genuinely dreading the whole process. A friend recommended Keluarga Chambers and I am glad I listened. The lawyer explained things slowly and checked I understood before moving on. It took a few months but I never felt lost or rushed.
June 2025 — Separation & Divorce Counsel
Tan Chee Leong
Cheras, Kuala Lumpur
My main concern going in was how the custody arrangement would affect my son's schooling. They understood that immediately and made it the central point of the negotiation. It took a bit of back-and-forth but we got to an agreement without going to court, which is what we both wanted.
May 2025 — Child Custody & Maintenance
Surinderjit Kaur
Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur
We tried mediation after a family member suggested it might be less damaging to our relationship with our children than a contested case. The mediator at Keluarga Chambers was very composed — she kept things moving without making either of us feel pressured. The agreement we reached has held.
June 2025 — Family Mediation
Mohd Aizat
Shah Alam, Selangor
I spoke to two other firms before this one. The difference was clear — they actually answered my questions rather than just telling me to engage them first. Fees were spelled out at the start and nothing changed. Would use again if needed, though hopefully not.
May 2025 — Separation & Divorce Counsel
Wong Li Xin
Ampang, Kuala Lumpur
The maintenance arrangements were complicated because my ex-husband's income is variable. They took the time to understand the situation properly and structured the proposal in a way that was realistic for both sides. Good communication throughout, though the court paperwork side took longer than I expected.
June 2025 — Child Custody & Maintenance
Rajes Priya
Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
We used the mediation service for a dispute that had been quietly building between my husband's family and mine over property matters. The mediator kept things respectful and focused. We came away with something workable, and more importantly, both families are still speaking.
July 2025 — Family Mediation
How It Worked in Practice
Three situations that reflect the kind of matters we handle regularly — details changed for privacy.
A Mutual Decision, Made Less Stressful
THE SITUATION
A couple in their late thirties had reached a mutual decision to separate after 11 years of marriage. They had two children and shared property. They wanted to avoid a drawn-out process and arrive at fair arrangements without the family being pulled through a contested case.
WHAT WE DID
We advised on the joint petition process and facilitated negotiation on property division and custody. A consent order was prepared and agreed. Court attendance was limited to a single hearing. Both parties were represented and kept informed throughout.
THE OUTCOME
The decree nisi was granted within four months. The children maintained consistent routines with both parents. The family avoided contested proceedings entirely. "It was difficult but it didn't have to be adversarial. They helped us keep it dignified."
Custody Arrangements for a School-Age Child
THE SITUATION
A father sought clarity on his access rights following a separation. His daughter was eight years old and the current informal arrangement was causing frequent disagreements. He wanted something structured and legally documented.
WHAT WE DID
We assessed the situation, reviewed existing communications, and negotiated directly with the other party's legal counsel. A detailed parenting plan was drawn up covering daily arrangements, holidays, and school events. This was filed as a consent order with the court.
THE OUTCOME
A consent order was finalised within three months. Day-to-day conflicts reduced significantly once both parents had a clear, agreed reference point. The child's school schedule was not disrupted. "The parenting plan made a real difference. There's far less conflict now."
Resolving a Family Inheritance Dispute Through Mediation
THE SITUATION
Three adult siblings disagreed over the distribution of their late father's estate. The eldest felt the existing arrangements were unfair; the other two were uncertain of their legal position. The family was concerned about permanent damage to their relationships.
WHAT WE DID
Individual intake meetings were held with each sibling. Two joint mediation sessions followed. Our mediator kept discussion focused on practical outcomes rather than past grievances, and helped all three clarify what they actually needed versus what they had been demanding.
THE OUTCOME
A binding Memorandum of Understanding was signed after the second session. The matter was resolved in six weeks at significantly lower cost than court proceedings would have entailed. All three siblings attended a family dinner together the following month. "We are still a family. That was what mattered most."
