Our Story

BZJ begins the new chapter of a partnership first forged in 2004 under the name of Messrs. Ariffin Shahzad Advocates & Solicitors, a Kuala Lumpur based law firm of 17 years’ standing.

Dato' Abang Ariffin bin Abang Bohan and Alexander Horbert Zen initially practiced at the local branch office of Messrs. Ariffinshahzad Advocates that was established in Kuching since 2008 .

Dato' Abang Ariffin bin Abang Bohan and Alexander Horbert Zen subsequently both founded Messrs. Ariffin Bohan Advocates (“ABA”) on 18 March 2015.

Benny Zaidy bin Jalil then became the newest partner of ABA from November 2020. In January 2022, the firm was officially renamed as Bohan Zen Jalil Advocates (“BZJ”)
