Twelve disciplines, one firm.
We advise across the full arc of a client's legal needs. Our practice groups work in concert, so complex matters are met by the right combination of counsel — not the limits of a single desk.
Corporate & Commercial
Incorporation and SEC registration, corporate governance, shareholders' agreements, joint ventures, and the day-to-day commercial contracts that keep a business running.
Mergers & Acquisitions
Buy-side and sell-side transactions, legal due diligence, share and asset purchases, reorganisations, and merger-control notifications before the Philippine Competition Commission.
Banking, Finance & Securities
Secured and syndicated lending, project and structured finance, debt and equity issuances, and regulatory counsel before the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and the SEC.
Litigation & Dispute Resolution
Trial and appellate advocacy before all levels of the Philippine courts, commercial and construction arbitration, and strategic pre-litigation counsel.
Taxation
Tax planning and structuring, BIR assessments and controversy, transfer pricing, customs, and the tax dimensions of every corporate transaction.
Labor & Employment
Management-side counsel on DOLE compliance, employment contracts, disciplinary and termination matters, union relations, and NLRC proceedings.
Intellectual Property
Trademark, patent, and copyright registration and enforcement before IPOPHL, brand protection, licensing, and anti-counterfeiting actions.
Real Estate & Property
Acquisitions and conveyancing, land title due diligence and registration, leasing, condominium and subdivision development, and HLURB/DHSUD compliance.
Energy, Infrastructure & Projects
Power, renewables, and infrastructure projects, concession and EPC agreements, ERC regulatory work, and public-private partnership arrangements.
Immigration & Foreign Investments
Foreign investment structuring, PEZA and BOI incentives, visas and work permits, and counsel on the Foreign Investments Act and nationality restrictions.
Data Privacy & Technology
Data Privacy Act compliance, privacy impact assessments, NPC registration and breach response, technology contracts, and digital-economy advisory.
Family Law, Wills & Estates
Estate planning and settlement, wills and probate, guardianship, annulment and nullity, and the sensitive private matters of individuals and families.
One team assembled around your matter.
Few significant matters respect the boundaries of a single practice. An acquisition raises tax, labor, competition, and real-property questions at once; a dispute may turn on a regulatory point argued years earlier.
We are built for that reality. A partner leads each engagement and draws in colleagues from across the firm as the matter demands — so you receive coordinated counsel from one accountable team, not a relay of separate opinions.
Not sure which group you need?
Describe your matter and we will direct it to the right partner. There is no charge for an initial conversation.
