Found a genuine quote? We beat it by at least 10% — see conditions. Every service also carries a 30-day money-back guarantee.
The question you've been sitting on for three weeks. Not because you don't need the answer. Because you don't know the price of asking.
Fixed fee, agreed first. A quote back in two business days. From records already on file.
RM 0
to ask and be quoted — the meter starts only if you accept
What legal advisory actually gets you
Four things, one appointment
SCOPED
A scoped question, not an open file
One matter, answered and closed out — not an engagement that keeps running until somebody notices the invoice.
FIXED
A fixed fee, agreed first
You see the number before you owe it, and you can say no once you've seen it.
LICENSED
A licensed advocate & solicitor
Admitted to the Malaysian Bar, personally accountable for the advice given — not a template, not a summary.
BOUNDARY
A named boundary at 'court'
Contracts, employment, compliance, early disputes. The moment a matter needs formal representation, you're told — not left assuming it's covered.
+ a scoped question can turn out to be bigger once it's opened — the fee moves with it, in writing, before it does, not after
+ advisory is not a document — an NDA or a set of terms and conditions is its own fixed-price service, not this one
What a fixed fee removes from the usual way this works
This is the arithmetic nobody shows you before you ask a question — every line an hourly quote leaves standing, and what's left once a fixed fee removes it:
That last line is the honest limit. A fixed number isn't instant; it's checked against the actual record before it's given, and that takes a little time.
Advice is not the decision
An advisor can tell you the risk, the options, and what's likely to happen if you go ahead. Signing the contract, ending the employment, filing the response — that action, and the responsibility for it, stays with you and the company.
Legal advice reduces the risk of a decision going wrong; it does not transfer responsibility for that decision away from the company or the people making it. Any liability arising from advice given is governed by the terms agreed for that specific engagement, not assumed to be open-ended. The precise position under Malaysian professional-liability and contract law, and whether a specific cap applies, is being confirmed with legal before this page states it more precisely.
The one question that decides this
Anyone can answer your question for a fee. Almost nobody can tell you the fee before you've spent anything finding out.
What happens before either side can even quote you
On the advice itself, an outside firm and OCTIS do the same job the same way. The difference shows up the moment either side has to price the work:
What quoting from the real record actually changes
A question comes in about something already in your OCTIS account
a contract, a filing, a register entry — not a fresh case file
The advisor opens the actual record, not a summary you typed up
the document as filed, the resolution as signed, the register as it stands today
The fixed fee is scoped against what's really there
not against a description of it — so the number doesn't move once work starts
The advice answers your actual situation
not the version of it that survived being retyped into an email
An outside firm starts from a blank file. It has to ask you to gather, describe and send everything before it can even price the work — so it is scoping and quoting against your account of the facts, not the facts themselves. Only a firm already running the rest of the back office can open the real record instead of asking for a description of it.
What happens to the clock on the quote itself
The meter on the advice hasn't started at this point. Only the meter on how long the quote takes to reach you has — and that one, we commit to.
When you don't need a quote at all
Plenty of legal needs are already a fixed price on this site, no quote required. Advisory exists for what's left over — the situation none of these describe.
When the clock actually starts
What it looks like
Asking the question starts the meter.
What's actually true
The meter — if there is one at all — starts after you've seen the fixed fee and said yes. Asking is what gets you the number, not what gets you billed.
From your question to a number you can say yes or no to
There's no tier to pick and nothing to compare against a competitor's rate card — this is the actual sequence:
You send the question
in writing — the matter, and what you're actually trying to decide
We scope it against your account
the real documents and records already on file, not a description of them
Withbefore any work starts
a fixed fee, in writing, for that specific matter — nothing open-ended
You decide
accept, and the advisor starts at that number — or decline, and nothing was billed to find out
The trade-off for a fixed number instead of an instant guess: you wait for the scoping step. If a matter is genuinely urgent — a deadline inside 24 hours, something already before a court or regulator — a two-day quote is the wrong tool for it.
Who does the work
Licensed lawyers on our panel
The legal work is undertaken by licensed practitioners we work with. OCTIS runs the intake, the records and the process around it — so nothing has to be assembled and re-explained first.
Turnaround on the quote
a fixed fee before any work starts
If a matter is unusually complex, you're told that's why it's taking longer, not left guessing.
Cost of the quote itself
Free, no obligation to proceed
You only pay if you accept the fixed fee that comes back.
Not included
Formal representation in court or before a tribunal
Your advisor tells you when a matter needs it and helps you engage the right specialist — this service isn't that engagement.
Not covered
- The 30-day money-back guarantee covers only new company incorporation and transfer of company secretary — not legal advisory. A fixed fee agreed before any work starts is the protection here instead.
- Formal representation in litigation or before a tribunal is not part of advisory. If a matter reaches that point, your advisor tells you and helps you engage the right specialist for it.
- If what you need is a standard document — an NDA, a set of terms and conditions, an employment contract — that's priced and available directly on this site, no quote required. Advisory is for the situation that doesn't reduce to one of those.
- This isn't built for genuine emergencies — a matter already before a court or regulator, a deadline inside 24 hours. The two-day scoping step is too slow for that; it needs immediate representation, not a queued quote.

How does OCTIS help me get more done?
One app and one chat instead of a firm for each service. You upload a document once, and you see where every order stands without asking.
How does OCTIS help me cut extra costs?
We automate the whole process, so your company's compliance and the back-and-forth cost less to run. That is why we can charge less and deliver faster. A live company health check in the app also shows where you are spending more than you should, alerts you, and suggests a better option that costs less.
How does OCTIS help me keep risk under control?
Reminders for your company's deadlines, so nothing is missed, and a professional legal team when you need one.
Is everything in OCTIS done by AI?
No. Licensed professionals do the work. AI helps them work faster, and helps you understand and analyse your own company quickly.
The question was never going to be free of consequence. It was always going to be free to ask.
Send it in. You'll see the fixed fee before you owe anything for finding out.
