Green light for foreign law firms


PETALING JAYA: Foreign law firms and lawyers are now permitted to practise in the peninsular, said Malaysian Bar president Christopher Leong.

He said this was possible because of amendments to the Legal Profession Act (LPA) and the Legal Profession (Licensing of International Partnerships and Qualified Foreign Law Firms and Registration of Foreign Lawyers) Rules which came into force on June 3.
