Dear Selangor YBGK Lawyers,

With reference to the above matter and to Bar Council's Circular No:004/2016/LW | Delayed Payment To YBGK Lawyers that issued by Bar Council YBGK Steering Committee dated 14 June 2016.

We understand and share your concern regarding the delay of payment owing to yourself for handling YBGK matters.

We appreciate all Selangor YBGK lawyer's commitment to contribute to society and assist Selangor Legal Aid and YBGK.

We foresee that the delay might continue indefinitely given that last year's payment to-date, have yet to be settled. We have raised this matter with National Legal Aid Committee (NLAC) on a few occasions, but there has not been any solution in sight.

In view of this problem, we strongly advise Selangor YBGK lawyers to exercise caution and discetion if you decide to take up YBGK matters in the future.

In view of the above, we suggest that future payment enquiries are to be directed to the Bar Council as addressed below. 

National Legal Aid Committee (NLAC) 

C/O Bar Council 

No.15, Leboh Pasar Besar,

50050 Kuala Lumpur.

Your cooperation is very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
