Found cheaper? We match it — see conditions. Incorporation and secretary transfer also carry a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Three quiet years. Then the lease, the loan guarantee and your dad's will land the same month. It never arrives as one thing at a time — that's exactly why 'I'll sort it out when it happens' doesn't work.
No lawyer on hand when the tenancy needs a second look, the family favour needs a second opinion, and both are due this week.
Unlimited
30-minute consults on new matters, one flat annual fee
What the Personal Lawyer Plan actually covers
Four things, or it's decoration
NEW MATTER
A new matter
A specific issue or document you haven't already raised with a plan lawyer — a lease about to be signed, a letter that arrived, a dispute that's just started. Each one gets its own consult.
CONSULT
30 minutes, as many new matters as come up
Talk it through with a lawyer matched to the matter — not capped at one call a year and then billed by the hour for the next one.
REVIEW
Document review, up to 10 pages
A tenancy, an employment letter, a sale agreement — reviewed before you sign it, not after something's already gone wrong.
NOT INCLUDED
Deeper, ongoing work
A dispute that runs for months, drafting a will, anything beyond a review or a consult — quoted separately at a member rate, not folded into the flat fee.
+ every consult and review is logged against your account, so the next one doesn't start from a blank intake form
+ the plan covers you and your family, not only the person whose name is on the subscription
The same fact, counted the way it actually arrives
That's the count that matters — not how many years pass between matters, but how many show up together in the one that doesn't. A plan bought for 'whichever one I think of first' isn't built for the month all three land at once.
The advice is only as current as what the lawyer knows
A lawyer can only advise on what they've actually been told. Whoever reviews the tenancy or answers the question, the facts you give them are yours to get right — the plan doesn't shift responsibility for what you disclose.
Malaysian professional conduct rules generally require a lawyer to advise on the basis of the facts and instructions actually given to them, and do not extend to matters the lawyer was never told about. The exact provisions are being confirmed with legal before this page cites a specific rule.
The one question that decides this
Almost any lawyer can be good at the matter in front of them. Almost none of them still have last year's matter on file when this year's shows up.
What happens once the invoice is paid
On the matter in front of them, a lawyer found ad hoc and a plan lawyer do the same job — both are genuinely fine at it:
What going ad hoc costs you, matter by matter
None of this is about finding a worse lawyer — it's what has to happen again, every time, without a plan already in place:
What this replaces, before anything's booked
This is what the plan stands in for — a lawyer engaged fresh, per matter, whenever one comes up:
There's no published Malaysian rate for a personal legal retainer to line this up against — bespoke, hourly engagements don't publish one. What's fixed is that the number doesn't move once you've agreed it.
What makes something a 'new' matter
It isn't a matter of degree. Either it's a matter you haven't brought to a plan lawyer before, or it's the same one continuing.
What you re-collect for the next matter
RM 0
to pull up last year's tenancy review or consult when this year's matter turns out to touch it — it's already in the same account, not in an old email thread.
From subscribing to the plan actually being used
There's no tier to pick and no number to show here — this is the real sequence, and where the number gets confirmed:
You talk to us
and the annual fee is confirmed for your situation before you pay — not after.
You're matched with a lawyer
from the panel, for the kind of matter you actually have.
You use it as things come up
a consult on each new matter, a review on anything you're about to sign — logged in the same account, on the same flat fee, whether it's your first matter this year or your fifth.
Something goes beyond the plan
a dispute that runs for months, a will, anything past a review or a consult — quoted separately at a member rate, not folded into the fee.
Some years the fee is paid and almost none of the plan gets used. That's not a flaw being hidden — it's what makes it a plan instead of a per-matter bill: you're not paying more the year it turns out you needed it.
Who does the work
Licensed lawyers on our panel
Matched to the kind of matter you bring — partner firms, not an in-house team. OCTIS runs the intake, the matching and the record-keeping around it.
Not a walk-in rate
The fee is confirmed before you subscribe
Not a headline number you find out doesn't apply once you actually sign up.
Not same-day
A plan, not an emergency line
Matching and set-up take a little real time — this isn't built to be live within the hour.
Not the guarantee
The 30-day money-back guarantee does not cover this plan
It covers new company incorporation and transferring your company secretary to us. What applies here instead: the fee is confirmed before you pay, and nothing about it changes mid-year.
Not covered
- If you have a serious matter right now — a court date, an arrest, a dispute already in motion — call a lawyer today. This is a subscription, not an emergency line: matching and set-up take a little real time, and a plan isn't the fast path for something that can't wait.
- This plan is for personal matters — yours, or your family's. A company's legal needs are covered by a separate plan built for that, not this page.
- Document reviews are capped at 10 pages. Longer documents are handled at an agreed member rate before any work begins, not inside the flat fee.
- Deeper or ongoing work — a dispute that runs for months, drafting a will, anything past a review or a 30-minute consult — is quoted separately at a member rate, not included in the annual fee.
- The 30-day money-back guarantee covers only new company incorporation and transfer of company secretary — not this plan. What applies instead: the fee is confirmed before you pay, and it doesn't change mid-year.
How much does the Personal Lawyer Plan cost?
It's a flat annual fee, confirmed for your situation before you pay — we don't publish a single headline number because it's set before you subscribe, not adjusted afterward. Talk to us and you'll have the figure before you commit to anything.
What counts as a 'new matter'?
A specific issue or document you haven't already raised with a plan lawyer — a lease, a letter, a dispute that's just started. Continuing a matter you've already raised is follow-up on that consult, not a fresh one.
I need a lawyer urgently — can the plan help today?
Not as a same-day service. This is a subscription: matching you with a panel lawyer and setting up your account takes a little real time. If something is urgent right now, call a lawyer directly rather than starting a plan.
What's not included?
Deeper or ongoing work — a dispute that runs for months, drafting a will, anything beyond a document review (capped at 10 pages) or a 30-minute consult — is quoted separately at a member rate, not folded into the annual fee.
Is this covered by the 30-day money-back guarantee?
No — the guarantee covers exactly two services, new company incorporation and transfer of company secretary. This plan isn't one of them. What applies instead: the fee is confirmed before you pay, and it doesn't change mid-year.
Is this the same as the business plan?
No. The business plan is for a company's legal questions, billed and used by the business. This plan is for your own matters, and your family's — a tenancy, a document you're about to sign, a family matter — not a company's.
The year nothing happens isn't proof you didn't need it. It's the year before the one you did.
Talk to us, and the fee is confirmed for your situation before you pay — so the plan is already in place the month more than one thing lands at once.
