FAQs

Answer: A Grant of Probate is issued when the deceased left a valid will, allowing the named executor to manage the estate. A Letter of Administration is required when there’s no will, authorising next of kin to handle the estate distribution.
Answer: A will ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes and reduces potential disputes among heirs. It also simplifies the legal process for your loved ones after your passing.
Answer: The process generally takes three to six months, depending on the complexity of the estate and whether any disputes arise. Proper documentation and legal guidance can speed up the procedure.
Answer: Key documents include:
- Death certificate of the deceased
- Identification of heirs or executors
- List of assets and liabilities
- Proof of ownership (titles, bank statements, etc.)
- Marriage or birth certificates (if applicable)
Answer: You can, but a legally valid will must comply with specific requirements under Malaysian law. Engaging a lawyer ensures it’s correctly drafted, witnessed, and enforceable to avoid future disputes.
Answer: A conveyancing lawyer handles property transactions — preparing Sale & Purchase Agreements, transferring ownership, and ensuring compliance with land office requirements. They protect your interests and ensure the process is legally sound.
Answer: These include business disagreements, contract breaches, debt recovery, partnership conflicts, and property-related claims. Asghar & Co. helps resolve such matters through negotiation, mediation, or court action.
