Our Vietnam practice

Our Vietnam practice combines deep local insight with international‑standard legal expertise, positioning us as a trusted advisor for clients navigating Vietnam’s fast‑evolving legal, commercial, and regulatory environment.

We are one of the leading global legal practices in the country. With decades of collective experience, our team has been involved in some of the largest and most complex projects and commercial transactions, in particular in the banking, energy and infrastructure, power and LNG sectors.

Our Vietnam practice is integrated into a global network spanning Asia, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Australia. This allows us to share market intelligence and resources for clients involved in transactions or disputes connected to Vietnam.

While we do not advise on Vietnamese law, we draw on the strengths of both local Vietnamese lawyers and international counsel to deliver seamless support, and have a strong record of advising clients with Vietnam-related interests and representing Vietnamese corporations and financial institutions on their global activities.
