At FAAIZ Law, our civil litigation team represents individuals, businesses and institutions in a broad range of disputes before the courts of Malaysia. From the Magistrate Court to the appellate courts, we act for both claimants and defendants, combining careful case preparation with practical, commercially-minded advocacy aimed at resolving disputes efficiently and cost-effectively.
Contract disputes form a significant part of our practice. We advise on breach of contract, non-payment, defective performance, misrepresentation, and the enforcement or termination of agreements. Whether the matter involves a commercial supply agreement, a service contract, a loan or a private arrangement between parties, we work to protect our clients' rights and recover what they are owed.
Our approach begins with a clear assessment of the merits and the likely outcomes, so clients can make informed decisions before committing to litigation. Where appropriate, we pursue negotiation, mediation or other forms of alternative dispute resolution to achieve a faster and more economical settlement. When matters must proceed to trial, our advocates are well prepared to argue the case robustly in court.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a claim?
Most civil claims must be filed within six years, but the period depends on the type of claim. It is best to seek advice early before your right to sue expires.
What is the difference between a small claim and a civil suit?
Small claims are for lower-value matters heard at the Magistrates Court under a simpler procedure, while larger or more complex claims proceed as full civil suits.
How long does a civil court case take?
It varies with complexity and the court's schedule, but many cases take from several months to a couple of years, including any appeals.
Do I need to send a letter of demand first?
A letter of demand is usually the recommended first step and can resolve many disputes without going to court.
