Debt Recovery law in Petaling Jaya

Debt recovery covers recovering unpaid sums through the courts — from a summary judgment application under Order 14 of the Rules of Court 2012, to bankruptcy or company winding-up proceedings where a debtor refuses to pay. The firms below handle debt recovery in Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

Common questions

What is a summary judgment and when can I use it?

Under Order 14 of the Rules of Court 2012, a creditor can apply for judgment without a full trial where the debtor has no genuine defence — far faster than a normal civil suit. If the debtor can show an arguable defence, the case proceeds to trial instead.

Can I make a company or individual bankrupt over unpaid debt?

Yes, if the debt meets the statutory threshold — a company can be wound up, and an individual made bankrupt, for failing to pay after a formal statutory demand. This is a serious step usually taken once other recovery routes have failed.

Are debt recovery legal fees fixed in Petaling Jaya?

No — unlike conveyancing, there's no statutory fee scale for debt recovery work. Court filing fees and costs orders follow the Rules of Court 2012, but a firm's own professional fees are negotiated directly with them.
