家族企业

Family businesses are an often overlooked form of ownership. The definition of a family businesses would mean that a family owns a significant share and can influence many an important decision, management or control. To be successful, a family business must meet two intertwined challenges: achieving strong business performance and keeping the family committed to and capable of carrying on as the owner.

At MWKA, we support and assist family businesses by ensuring that the harmonious relations within the family and an understanding of how members should be involved with the business, an ownership structure that provides sufficient capital for growth while allowing the family to control key parts of the business and maintain strong governance of the company.

“MahWengKwai & Associates have been engaged to handle an on-going family property /inheritance case which involves multiple stakeholders from two generations. Their understanding and soft skills to deal with the complication of family circumstances carve the path towards an amicable cooperation amongst the stakeholders. Despite an initial setback in the High Court, we maintain our perseverance in our lawsuit and faith in MahWengKwai & Associates. Due to the professional support of MahWengKwai & Associates, the Court of Appeal granted a favourable Court Order in May 2019. The overall service of MahWengKwai & Associates is commendable; professional case evaluation, professional advice and excellent knowledge of our case challenges. All the supporting staff are friendly, approachable and response to our queries and requests in a timely manner. In addition, they provide clear explanations on our case challenges and directions. Our case is still on-going and not concluded yet. Nevertheless, we have full confidence in MahWengKwai & Associates and continue to make use of their service in the present and any future case.” – Freddie Leong, Netherlands/KL
