FAAIZ Law helps individuals and families plan for the future and manage the legal process that follows the passing of a loved one. We provide clear, compassionate advice on wills, trusts and the administration of estates, so that your wishes are properly recorded and your family is protected.
We draft wills tailored to each client's circumstances, ensuring that assets are distributed according to their wishes and that the document is valid and effective. We also advise on the use of trusts as part of estate and succession planning, helping clients protect assets and provide for beneficiaries over time.
When a person passes away, we assist the family with probate and estate administration. This includes applying for a grant of probate where there is a will, or letters of administration where there is none, and guiding the executors or administrators through the process of collecting, managing and distributing the estate in accordance with the law.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a will?
A will lets you decide how your assets are distributed and makes administration faster. Without one, distribution follows the Distribution Act 1958 or Faraid for Muslims.
What is the difference between probate and letters of administration?
Probate is applied for when there is a valid will; letters of administration are needed when the deceased left no will.
What is a small estate (pusaka kecil)?
An estate that includes immovable property and is below the statutory threshold, distributed through the Land Office rather than the courts.
How long does estate administration take?
It varies with the estate type and whether disputes arise, but straightforward matters usually take several months.
