Joseph and Partners are one of the few law firms of Malaysia which specialize in Ports and Shipping matters. Furthermore, our Law Firm’s lawyers regularly oversee and review contractual documents about ports and terminal matters.

Ports play a crucial role in global trade in emerging markets and our office in Kuala Lumpur is a significant strength in our ability to represent all areas of the Ports and commercial interests of our clients in Malaysia. Ports are established in Malaysia either as Federal or State ports, and they are controlled by their respective Federal or State governments. Presently, Malaysia has a total of seven (7) major Federal ports namely Port Klang, Johor Port, Port of Tanjung Pelepas, Kuantan Port, Penang Port, Bintulu Port, and Kemaman Port. Port Klang, close to the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, is the leading port with about half of Malaysia’s throughput.
