RW Law Practice, Mdm Rafidah and Ms Ameerah are helpful, competent and efficient. My case was handle mainly by Ms Ameerah. It was a smooth process throughout. Approached the firm in May for consultation. Engaged them to handle my case in July and everything was settled within the same year which was 5 months. The much needed assistance when I was at my lost and confused stage of divorce. Thank you Ms Ameerah and Mdm Rafidah.
I would like to thank Ms Shahirah for assisting me with my divorce proceedings. It was a long battle and she responded whenever I asked her for advice. She was approachable and understood the agony I was going through. She was very patient with all my enquiries and pushed for what I asked for. I am very grateful for what she has done and sincerely wish her all the best for her future.

I engaged RW Law for my divorce case. Ms Rafidah Wahid was the appointed Lawyer. I was in shock as I have seen her on TV giving advise on Syariah Concerns. Her reputable reputation and competent. As a single mother, cost is my main concern but at RW Law they are very transparent about their pricing. No hidden cost.
During my 1st Consultation, Ms Rafidah explained to me in detail about the cost, duration and stages if the process. Straight to the point. And being a Muslimah, its easier for me to open up my case to her. Ms Rafidah and her paralegal, Ms Asyura was so efficient and will update me on every process if the case. My case was not a straightforward case but they keep assuring me that it will be fine. Thank you Ms Rafidah and Team for guiding me and representing me for my divorce case. 100% recomended!
