Rizuan is very knowledgeable in the field. He has helped me to understand the process of divorces when I was lost. Even went out of his way to give advice for matters that were not under his care and helped me see things much more clearly.
Thanks to Rizuan & Russell for giving me a listening ear. Especially to Ayati who patiently attended to my woes & cries. I am happy now that its all settled in good manner. Russell, thanks for taking my last minute instruction. Alhamdulillah.
