Independent lawyering
You can do the legal work. We'll do everything around it.
Going out on your own means becoming a marketer, an operations manager, and an IT department overnight. Lawgistics is the back office you didn't get to bring with you.
- Brand, logo, and one-page website live
- Client intake form feeding a real inbox
- Engagement letter and fee templates ready
- Matter files and billing set up
- First marketing campaign out the door
Why this exists
Good lawyers don't leave because they can't do the law
No clients on day one
The firm's name brought the work in. On your own, nobody knows you're open, and lawyers are rarely taught how to market.
No systems
Matter files, engagement letters, billing, filing deadlines. All of it existed. None of it comes with you.
No one to hand work to
Bundles at midnight, chronologies on the weekend. The support staff you relied on are still at the firm.
What we offer
An opportunity to launch your independent legal practice.
Support as you begin your journey to establish your own practice, so you can register and start without the usual standing start.
Financial assistance
An investment to cover your Bar Council fees and insurance, so you can register as an independent lawyer without delay.
Technology support
A laptop equipped with the practice management software a law firm actually runs on.
Workspace
Shared office space within a group practice for 100 weeks, a professional setting to meet clients and manage matters.
Initial work value
RM 1,000 per week, repayable in the form of work over four years. Repayment is spread into manageable contributions rather than a lump sum hanging over you.
Mentorship
One hour every week: thirty minutes on technical legal skills, thirty minutes on business development.
Your commitment to the host practice
In return, you agree with the host practice, our partner law firm, to contribute 10% of your gross income to it, so both sides share in the practice as it grows. That arrangement is between you and the practice, as lawyers.
Lawgistics is not party to it. We provide the business support around your practice and take no part of any professional fee.
To apply
Who this is for.
- A qualified lawyer, or recently admitted to the Malaysian Bar.
- Based in, or able to work from, Kuala Lumpur or Johor Bahru.
- The drive, discipline and grit to build your own practice.
- A strong sense of likability, responsibility, professionalism and integrity.
If that is you, register your interest and we will come back to you on the investment terms, the payment structure and the mentorship in detail.
How it works
From "I think I want to go out on my own" to open for business
A conversation
Where you are, what practice you want, and what's actually stopping you. Free, and honest about whether now is the right time.
A setup plan
A written plan with the brand, the systems, the costs, and the sequence, scoped to your budget and your practice area.
We build it with you
Brand, site, intake, templates, and campaign delivered, then ongoing support as the practice grows.
Get started
Tell us what you're planning
Whether you're six months from leaving or already out on your own, start with a conversation. No cost, no obligation, and we'll tell you honestly if you don't need us.
Built with independent practitioners in mind
