Our Areas of Practice
At Iqbal I’zzudin & Partners, we are dedicated to delivering strategic legal services tailored to the unique needs of each client. Our firm covers a broad spectrum of legal areas, from personal matters such as divorce and inheritance to complex commercial litigation and corporate advisory. We combine legal precision with practical insight to resolve disputes efficiently and protect your interests.
Civil Litigation
We represent individuals, businesses, and institutions in civil disputes across all levels of the Malaysian courts. Our litigation services include matters such as breach of contract, tort claims, land and property disputes, injunctions, and declaratory relief. With a strong emphasis on evidence, advocacy, and negotiation, we aim to resolve disputes through both court proceedings and settlement wherever possible.
Criminal Litigation
Our criminal defence team provides representation from the point of arrest through to trial and appeal. We handle a variety of criminal cases including white-collar crime, drug-related offences, assault, theft, and corruption. We are committed to upholding the rights of the accused and ensuring fair treatment within the justice system, with prompt advice on bail, plea bargaining, and defence strategies.
Divorce & Annulment of Marriage
We provide compassionate and confidential legal services for clients undergoing divorce or seeking annulment. Our team handles both civil and Syariah divorce matters, including contested and uncontested divorces, division of matrimonial assets, custody of children, spousal maintenance, and related applications. We strive to make the legal process less stressful while protecting your family and financial interests.
Conveyancing
Whether you are buying, selling, or leasing property, we provide end-to-end conveyancing services to ensure that your transaction is legally sound and efficiently executed. We assist with Sale and Purchase Agreements (SPA), loan documentation, land title transfers, sub-sale transactions, and dealings with developers and banks. Our goal is to protect your investment with accuracy and clarity.
Probate & Administration of Estates
We assist clients in the smooth administration of estates, whether by obtaining Grant of Probate (for testate estates) or Letters of Administration (for intestate estates). We provide comprehensive support, including identifying assets, resolving disputes among beneficiaries, and distributing the estate in accordance with Islamic law (Faraid) or civil law as applicable. Our aim is to ease the burden on families during difficult times.
Corporate Advisory
Our corporate advisory services support businesses at all stages—from incorporation to restructuring. We advise on shareholder agreements, directors’ duties, regulatory compliance (including SSM and Bursa requirements), contract drafting, governance policies, and strategic corporate planning. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions that drive business sustainability and growth.
Construction Disputes
Construction law requires technical understanding and legal experience. We act for contractors, developers, consultants, and subcontractors in disputes over delay, non-payment, defective works, variation orders, and termination of contracts. We are experienced in representing clients in adjudication under the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act (CIPAA), arbitration, and court proceedings.
Employment Law
We provide advisory and dispute resolution services in all aspects of employment law. We draft and review employment contracts, handbooks, and HR policies, and advise on termination, retrenchment, misconduct, and disciplinary action. We represent both employers and employees in unfair dismissal claims, constructive dismissal cases, and representation before the Industrial Court and Labour Department.
Commercial & Corporate Litigation
Our commercial litigation practice deals with disputes that arise in the corporate and business landscape. This includes shareholder disputes, minority oppression, breach of directors’ duties, fraudulent misrepresentation, breach of commercial contracts, and partnership disputes. We act swiftly to protect your legal and commercial position, including seeking injunctive relief where necessary.
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
When court litigation is not ideal, we offer alternative paths to resolution including mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. These methods can save time and costs while preserving relationships. We help clients craft effective settlement strategies and represent them in arbitration tribunals and formal mediation sessions, especially in commercial, family, and construction disputes.
Debt Recovery & Insolvency
We assist creditors in recovering outstanding debts through demand letters, negotiation, court proceedings, and bankruptcy or winding-up petitions. We also advise debtors facing insolvency risks. Our services include executing judgments, enforcing security (e.g. foreclosure), and advising on receivership, liquidation, and corporate rescue mechanisms under the Companies Act 2016.
Company Reinstatement
If your company has been struck off from the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), we can help you reinstate it under Section 555 of the Companies Act 2016. Whether for the purpose of business revival, litigation, or asset management, we prepare the necessary statutory documents and represent you in court to ensure successful restoration of your company to the register.
