Baker McKenzie

Baker McKenzie is highly sought after by blue-chip clients for its expertise in complex and high-profile employment matters, including compliance mandates, regulatory investigations, and the employment aspects of M&A, restructurings, and reorganisations. The practice is particularly well versed in advising on contentious, criminal, and white-collar crime-related matters, including high-profile terminations and complex Trade Union disputes. The firm also maintains strong public sector links, which it leverages to help shape Vietnam’s evolving employment regulatory framework. The team is led from Ho Chi Minh City by Thuy Hang Nguyen, who specialises in both contentious and non-contentious labour issues. The firm also benefits from the expertise of Tri Trung Pham, a specialist in equity award plans, and Hoang Anh Nguyen, a key contact for employment and compliance advice.
