Tell us what’s on your desk.

Yes. A 30-minute partner-led intake is offered at no charge, with no obligation. We use the time to understand the matter, run a conflicts check, and advise you honestly on whether Gacnibha is the right firm. If we’re not, we’ll recommend someone we trust.

Most engagements are billed hourly at rates set by the Malaysian Bar Fee Schedule. For well-defined matters — such as straightforward restructures or employment drafting — we offer fixed fees. Every engagement begins with a written estimate. You will never receive an unexplained invoice from this firm.

Yes. Cross-border deal structuring is among our core strengths. We work with vetted correspondent firms across ASEAN, the UK, and the Middle East, and our partners have direct experience advising on transactions governed by multiple jurisdictions simultaneously.

Our advocates are admitted to practise before the High Court of Malaya, the Court of Appeal, and the Federal Court. We also appear before the Industrial Court, the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act (CIPAA) adjudication panels, and major arbitration institutions including AIAC.

For most new matters, intake and a conflicts check can be completed within 24 hours and substantive work can begin the same business day. Urgent matters — injunctions, statutory deadlines, pending hearings — should be flagged clearly in the inquiry form and followed up by phone.
