Satisfactory. Wish they could be a little more patient and better explain their services inclusions and additional charges. Banks and law firms have different understanding and make it difficult for family members to settle the debts and assets of my Dad, as he did not leave a Will or a listing of his debts and assets. We thought the banks or law firms could help but these search are additional charges per financial insitutions by the law firms. Banks will not tell us anything until we have a legal letter.

We are very thankful to be well-served by Christina and their team of staff. We were not sure where to turn to, too many law firms offering and promising best service. It was a call made and attended by a helpful reception staff Miss Felicia. I remembered it was almost office closing time, however, she was still very patiently and helpful handling our enquiries, not rushing through. That left us with a deep impression. We made the decision right after that plus the good reviews received on google. Everyone at your law firm that we met was kind and patient.Christina has always made sure to follow-up closely and update us as & when.We would highly recommend this law firm not only for their good staff and quality service but also their reasonable legal fee. They are transparent with whatever they have quoted right at the beginning, truly no hidden cost.

Christina of PKWA is very professional and serve with her heart.Unfortunately, the alternate work from home requirement due the pandemic hinders me from reaching her easily. On occasion I call her at the office for clarification and if she is working from home, will have to reach her the next working day or e-mail to her.

I had researched online for application of LOA service and PKWA came to my attention as they have alot of good reviews and reasonable price (in actual fact, the cheapest). Thus, I had called PKWA and managed to book an appointment with one of their lawyers that can communicate in mandarin (as my mother was the one that requires the service). Jane Ng was the legal manger that was assigned to us, she is very friendly, detailed in explanation and patience (as my mother takes awhile to digest certain information). The whole process was fuss free and smooth. Glad that we had engaged PKWA/Jane's service. Thank you~~~
