Eight practice areas that overlap by design. A mining licence dispute is rarely only an administrative matter, and a shipping casualty is rarely only an insurance one.

Practice Areas
Litigation & Dispute Resolution
From negotiation to the Supreme Court, and the judgment call of which to use.
Representation before Indonesian courts at every level, including corporate criminal proceedings before the Corruption Court and civil claims through verzet and objection stages, alongside negotiation, mediation and arbitration where those fit the matter better. The work begins before anything is filed, with an honest read of what a case is worth pursuing and what it will cost to see through.
Corporate criminal proceedings · Civil claims, verzet and objection · Arbitration and mediation · Enforcement · Judicial review
Details
Corporate & Commercial
The contracts, corporate actions, and financing a business runs on.
Company establishment, shareholder arrangements, commercial contracts, and corporate actions, together with the financing documentation and security structures that sit alongside them. We also build the internal legal infrastructure a growing company needs: company regulations, board regulations, and the contract and employment templates the business will actually use.
Company establishment · Shareholder agreements · Commercial contracts · Facility and security documentation · Company and board regulations
Details
Licensing & Permits
The approvals that decide whether an operation can legally start, and keep going.
More than fifteen business licences secured to date, from timber utilisation and high-risk plantation permits to SVLK certification, PIRT, halal certification, KRK and PBG. We work through OSS and SIMBG the way the systems actually behave, not the way the manual describes them, and we sequence applications so that one approval does not stall waiting on another.
OSS and NIB · SIMBG, KRK and PBG · Sector permits and certification · Licence sequencing and renewal · Compliance audits

Oil, Gas & Mining
Upstream to downstream, and the licences that hold it together.
Legal work across Indonesia’s extractive sector: cooperation and service contracts, PTK-007 compliance in upstream procurement, IUP and IUPK licensing, divestment and local content obligations, and employment compliance for special purpose entities. We read the regulation the way regulators apply it, not only the way it is written.
PTK-007 procurement compliance · IUP / IUPK licensing · Divestment and local content · SPV structuring and employment · Sector disputes

Maritime & Offshore
Vessels, rigs, and the contracts that move them between owners and flags.
Offshore platform conversion contracts negotiated with shipyards on BIMCO CONVERSIONCON terms, rig and vessel acquisitions through closing documents, deletion certificates and re-flagging, and bank guarantees structured to international banking format. This is work we have done from inside an operating offshore company, not only advised on from outside it.

Details
Environmental, Forestry & Land
Permits, land use, and the obligations that keep an operation licensed.
Forestry concessions, land acquisition and tenure, and environmental obligations, including the conversion of 156 hectares of peatland into registered title in coordination with the Ministry of Environment and Forestry and the National Land Agency, customary rights questions included. Four years inside the Ministry issuing timber legality certificates sits behind this work.
Concession permits · AMDAL and environmental approvals · Land acquisition and tenure · Customary rights · SVLK and timber legality

Carbon, Climate & Sustainability
Carbon projects and ESG duties, in a framework still being written.
Indonesia’s carbon economic value framework is young and still moving. We structure carbon projects, draft offset and offtake agreements, and advise on registration, benefit sharing, ESG governance and sustainability reporting, along with the regulatory risk that comes with a market still being built. Published research on the legal construction of carbon trading in Indonesia sits behind this practice.

Intellectual Property & Software Compliance
Owning what you built, and proving what you licensed.
Trademark and copyright protection, licensing arrangements, and enforcement where a competitor has taken what is yours. We also handle software compliance, an area most Indonesian businesses only discover when an audit letter arrives: verifying licence entitlements for engineering and mapping software such as GIS, closing gaps before they become claims, and responding when the claim has already been made.
Trademark and copyright · Licensing agreements · Software licence audits · Infringement enforcement · Trade secret protection
