Mr Firdaus has been of great help for me and my family. Everything was explained in details and was also patient enough waiting for me to hand in documents because this is my first time engaging such services so i was kind of lost in the paperwork. He helped me throughout the whole process and we finally managed to settle everything. Thank you Mr Firdaus🙏🏻

Ms Charlene was appointed to me for my case in 2018. She has been a very helpful lawyer, going out of her way to assist me in my case. She gave many advises with her expertise. In addition, she is very knowledgeable in her field. With the assistance of Mr Jason, PKWA made my experience a pleasant one, as they would give me advises when necessary, and aid me in providing the necessary information.PKWA is also a helpful firm, as they fairly price their services. They do not overcharge for their services and provide quality service for their client. I will definitely use PKWA as my lawyer if the opportunity arises, especially from Ms Charlene and Jason.
