As one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia, and an integral part of regional trade agreements, Vietnam’s strategic position within ASEAN makes it a key player in the region. Our dedicated Vietnam Desk serves as a vital bridge for both local and international clients seeking to navigate the complexities of the Vietnamese market.
Bringing together local knowledge of the Vietnamese market with the regional expertise of our Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia-based lawyers, the firm’s Vietnam Desk is managed by Paul Papon Charoenpao, who focuses on corporate M&A, FinTech, Tax, and funds/ private equity/ venture capital. Our team also consists of lawyers admitted to the Vietnam Bar, as well as foreign qualified lawyers with expertise and experience in cross-border transactions.
Our Vietnam Desk provides the whole range of corporate and regulatory advice including business establishment and licensing requirements, foreign direct investments, corporate governance and regulatory approvals. We are also well versed in transactional mergers & acquisitions (M&A) and employment law-related matters.
Our team is fluent in both English and Vietnamese, ensuring seamless communication and an in-depth understanding of local legal, business, and cultural dynamics.

We are instructed by Indian law firms acting for their clients in India or Singapore, on transactions and disputes.
We also act for Indian clients based in Singapore and in India seeking to do business in Singapore or have their disputes resolved here, and often also for Singaporean entities involved in disputes with Indian parties.
Our dedicated India desk helps provide streamlined and dedicated support to:
The India Desk is managed by Lakshman Shankar, who is an Indian-educated and Indian-qualified lawyer with over twenty years’ practice experience in India, and by the firm’s managing partner, Peter Doraisamy, a Singapore-qualified lawyer who has significant experience working with Indian clients and Indian related matters. Clients benefit from our understanding of Indian business culture.
Over the years, the firm has built strong working relationships with reputable Indian law firms across various practice areas and industry sectors. This includes, but is not limited to, commercial litigation, international arbitration, M&A and corporate advisory work, shipping and international trade, and intellectual property.
Our India Desk is well supported by seasoned professionals practising across a wide range of legal fields in Singapore, providing the Desk a strong foundation and back-end support in complex disputes and cross-border transactions where both Indian and Singaporean jurisdictions apply. It enables us to offer our clients complete and comprehensive services, dovetailing across different practice areas.
Our original core competence, commercial litigation and arbitration, now has the benefit of expertise in other practice areas. Our lawyers routinely handle both domestic and international arbitration, having been engaged on significant and complex disputes ever since the firm was established.
