My company has a case with the Ministry Of Health (Malay: Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia) and they issued a summons to come next week at the Shah Alam Magistrate Court. If we plea guilty then we have to pay the fine. Our company is ready to plea guilty and want to appeal to the Magistrate for a lower fine because our company is already inoperative since two years ago.
Can we hire a lawyer to appear/represent us in this session (12th September 2019) if we are unavailable to come? How much is the fee for legal representation to admit guilt?

Can we get a lawyer to attend court for our company if we are unable to go?

c. First offence by company
d. ......
