Hello Hanna,
There is a Maritime Lawyer position in Malaysia as there are such law firms available in the country. In order to become one, you must complete the following:
1. Complete an undergraduate degree in the recommended studies: marine studies, law, government, economics
2. Take the Law School Administration Test (LSAT)
3. Get into a Law School and study Maritime Law: it is recommended that you enroll in the specialty courses to become a Maritime Lawyer (law, marine insurance, injured employee compensation, marine pollution and international law)
4. Finally, you must take a bar exam and apply for your licensure as a Maritime Lawyer
However, please insure that you are committed in studying law as it is complicated and time-consuming course. It is not an easy degree to obtain and takes years of trial and error to achieve. Do refer to How to Become a Maritime Lawyer for more information.
Hoping this advice is helpful to you and good luck!

Dear Nurul Anis,
While we do agree with you that to become a lawyer you'll require good memory skills - nothing should stop you if you are passionate enough.
Since you are also interested in Communications studies, there are few universities that offer Foundation course en route to a Bachelor in Communications such as IUKL, IUMW and BAC and many more. You can read the full info for this course by following this link.
Hope this helps!
