My husband and I needed to redo our wills in the UK and we let slip to our solicitor there that we also have a property in Malaysia. Our UK solicitor then advised that we should make a separate will in Malaysia to protect our assets there. This was news to us but we recognized the implications and mess we could be leaving behind.
On meeting Ms. Kim Khoo we discovered she was just the professional we were searching for. So now our UK Will has reference to our Malaysian Will and vice versa and both copies of the Will has been safe kept respectively.
We were delighted to have met Kim, to have used her services, and we now count her as a good friend. Would we recommend her to others? Of course, and we have already done so.
Ms. Kim Khoo provided insightful and expedient help in crafting effective Wills and Testaments for our Estate which spans several international jurisdictions.
With compassion and competence, Kim handled all our rather complicated requirements with ease and care. Kim is knowledgeable, empathetic and patient, and able to explore all aspects of tax and inheritance regulations that are in effect in the countries where we hold assets.
Thanks for making what could have been a scary and tedious exercise into a productive, thought-provoking family discussion which helped us reach alignment on several family-related goals.
My wife and I are Americans living in Malaysia on the MM2H plan. We realized that having a fixed deposit here implied the need for a Malaysian will so that our loved ones could gain access to our assets if anything happened to us here.
Ms. Kim Khoo did a terrific job in explaining the key legal points. We conveyed our desires for our will including a couple of unusual points. Kim put together a will over the next few days. When we met her next at her office everything was in order. We signed it, paid her a fair fee and departed with that matter all taken care of in good order.
We highly recommend Kim’s legal services to anyone needing to get things right here in Malaysia.
We are an international business couple with companies and assets in Europe, Asia and USA. Ms. Khoo analysed our situation and advised us on special points to consider by expatriates like us, living in Malaysia and being German nationals.
With her special know-how and experiences in legacies she guided us to prepare Wills (we German say just Testaments) in Malaysia to be aligned with Germany, so that both supplement each other. The procedure here in Malaysia was simple and easy, as Ms. Khoo had all our private details and wishes to prepare each one Testament for my wife and for me. In Germany we did discuss Ms. Khoo’s advices with a Testament Notary and they were fully accepted and integrated into our Testaments there.
Based on Ms. Kim Khoo’s sound legal experience and knowledge of Expatriate situations, we obtained excellent and sound advice on how to structure our Wills across multiple regions and jurisdictions and how to structure a Trust as well. In addition her storage services to ensure easy access to our Wills and legal documents for our Executors.
Kim’s experience and knowledge made the process of drawing up our Wills and other legal documents much easier and quicker and her efficient and prompt service enabled us to complete everything within a week.
Kim was a pleasure to deal with, extremely professional and delivered the service she promised. We would not hesitate to recommend Kim and her team to others who need proper and professional legal services here in Malaysia.
Having been a corporate banker for a large institution in Australia for over 35 years it was important for my husband and I to have the correct legal advice following our move to Malaysia in 2017.
Fortunately I was invited to attend a seminar given by Ms. Kim Khoo where she explained the legal requirements in Malaysia with particular focus on the importance of having a valid will covering our assets here.
We then engaged her services to review our needs and are now confident that should the need arise our wills will stand up in a Malaysian court so that our assets here will be dealt with as we wished without affecting or contradicting our wills dealing with assets outside Malaysia.
If you have chosen to make Malaysia your new or second home I would highly recommend that you contact Kim to review your own position.
As a Commonwealth country similar to Malaysia, the legal system of Australia are akin to that of Malaysia as both are largely based on the English legal system. The
