The Distribution Act 1958 governs intestate succession for non-Muslims; section 6 specifies spouse, children, and parent shares. Where there is both spouse and children, the spouse receives one-third and children share two-thirds; parents receive nothing unless no spouse or children survive. Malaysian families who delay this documentation leave spouses and children exposed to court-processed distribution that may not match their intentions. The Distribution Act 1958 assigns statutory shares that ignore family dynamics, potentially giving estranged relatives equal footing with lifelong partners.

A tailored estate planning plan removes this risk. You decide exactly who receives what, when they receive it, and under what conditions. Assets held in a trust bypass probate entirely. With a trust, your family avoids court delays and bank accounts being frozen, receiving support in 7-10 working days.
