What I'm looking for

I seek a strategic, impactful legal role (firm or in-house) with broader responsibilities, opportunities for advocacy, complex casework, and professional growth in litigation and advisory.

I am a dual-qualified lawyer experienced across Civil and Shariah matters, with hands-on practice in litigation, conveyancing, labour, corporate and commercial law. I combine courtroom advocacy with robust legal research to develop persuasive case strategies.

In practice, I have acted as lead counsel in contested civil matters and represented clients in Session Court trials, contributing to favourable outcomes and successful High Court reviews. My written submissions have been expressly acknowledged in judges’ grounds of judgment.

I drafted and reviewed a wide range of contracts, managed RM3.4 million in property transactions, and defused a RM100,000 claim through careful contractual analysis leading to out-of-court resolution. I routinely manage client consultations, negotiations, filings, and case progression to achieve practical results.

I seek to advance into a more strategic and impactful legal role, bringing strong analytical precision, courtroom presence, and a client-centered approach to support firm or in-house objectives.
