‘Lia Alizia and Made Susanti. Lia is excellent in her knowledge of Indonesian laws and more importantly the culture and was able to quickly and concisely analyze the case and present the relative strengths and weaknesses of the matter with a sound and practical strategy for moving forth.

‘They’re really good at criminal investigations and international arbitration, they also handle general disputes but I think they are frontliners in these specialisms. They are capable of deploying tools to image the company’s server and apply programmes to crawl the data in fraud and corruption investigation, it’s just phenomenal. They also have a very resourceful team in their international arbitration practice, especially with their exclusive tie-in with Hogan Lovells’ network. It feels like you’re working with a truly global, but also truly local, firm.’

‘The team took the time to really understand the “drivers” of our business. In turn, this ensured that the advice provided was in a format/in a level of detail that could readily be used by internal non-legal business stakeholders. In addition, the advice added focus to commercial considerations that not all law firms are comfortable weighing in on. They were not afraid to “take a view” on matters that are not black/ white from a legal perspective, due to the legal landscape of Indonesia.’

‘Dyah Paramita – an excellent senior associate who works in a precise and methodical matter. In a complex instruction that involved many technical details, Dyah really took the time and effort to understand the various intricacies, which then followed through to meaningful and practical advice.’

‘The dispute resolution team has in-depth knowledge on the laws, very experienced in its practical implementation and how to strategize it to support the client’s best interests. Their response is excellently fast. The team is very approachable compared to other firms. The services offered by the HLDNFP dispute resolution practice include white collar, investigation and compliance practices which are unique because, to my knowledge, there are only a few firms in Jakarta that render these services. Their legal fees are also competitive compared to other big law firms.’

‘A key strength of TNB’s is their all-round ability to manage and guide us through the legal issues in the context of Indonesian legal culture and processes especially how the court system works and separately how the enforcement authorities operate and recognizing the difficulty with this compared to our expectations. ’
