Ms Sharifah Ally has assisted me closely with my Syariah Court divorce. She is always contactable via phone to communicate at any time and any day. The process was explained to me thoroughly and clearly. I am thankful for a fair decision from the court and the guidance from her throughout the process. Even after the divorce is concluded, she has provided me the next steps to take after the divorce is concluded.
