Firm Overview

GSMH Law is a full service law firm and currently has 37 lawyers. It aims to expand to at least 40 lawyers this year. As a full service firm, GSMH Law’s practice areas includes, among others, Special Projects, Commercial Litigation, Labor & Employment Law, Maritime and Admiralty Law, Banking & Finance, Insurance, Trade Law & Customs Regulation, Intellectual Property, and other emerging fields, such as Fintech and Data Privacy. GSMH Law also handles assistance with corporate startups, policy development, and investments.

The firm has correspondent offices in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Jakarta, Vientiane, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, Phnom Penh, Brunei, Osaka, and Tokyo. It is part of the ASEAN Legal Alliance as well as the Warwick Legal Network.

The training program of GSMH law for associates is holistic in that lawyers are given engagements in different fields of practice, simultaneously, in contrast to the usual rotation to different departments before they eventually specialize in a specific practice.
