Compare negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation for foreign-company disputes in Vietnam, with evidence and enforcement issues to assess early. Review the dispute clause, performance records, notices and counterparty assets before choosing a forum. Legal strategy should account for settlement options, procedural deadlines and the practical prospect of enforcing a decision.
Enterprise 26/10/2023
Finding legal assistance in Vietnam requires matching the lawyer's work to the matter. A personal recommendation or online listing can be a starting point, but the proposed engagement deserves its own assessment. Ask who will review the documents, which procedures the work may involve and what information is missing. A lawyer should be able to explain the options and limits in language the client understands. Avoid assuming that experience in one field establishes suitability for every legal problem.

Spot legal red flags in sale contracts, including vague obligations, unbalanced payment terms, weak warranties and unclear termination provisions. A useful review connects the wording to the actual transaction and expected evidence of performance. Clarify delivery, acceptance, remedies and dispute clauses before signing rather than relying on informal assurances.
Enterprise 18/08/2026
Use a pre-FDI legal checklist for Vietnam covering market access, structure, approvals, capital accounts, local partners, contracts and compliance. Confirm the intended business activity and legal route before transferring funds. Due diligence and clear documentation can identify licensing, ownership and partner risks that are harder to correct after operations begin.
Foreigners 20/08/2026
Understand diversion measures for foreign juvenile offenders in Vietnam, including eligibility, supervision, rehabilitation and practical legal preparation. Diversion depends on statutory conditions and the authority's assessment of the child and offence. Families should obtain advice before important admissions or consent and prepare relevant educational, family and supervision records.
Foreigners 18/07/2026
Understand inheritance in Vietnam for overseas Vietnamese and foreigners, including succession rights, asset eligibility, documents and cross-border risks. The right to inherit and the ability to register an asset are separate questions. Review nationality, the will, family records and each asset type before agreeing on division, transfer or remittance of value.

Русскоязычным клиентам в Хошимине важно отделить юридическую консультацию от перевода и административной помощи. Подготовьте полные договоры, уведомления, данные сторон, хронологию и сведения о связанных процедурах за рубежом. Заранее согласуйте рабочий язык, порядок инструкций и отчетности, обращение с документами, вознаграждение и пределы представительства.
Foreigners 13/11/2023
Sponsorship for a foreign visitor requires attention to both the inviting party and the person's purpose of entry. The sponsor should understand its role before submitting information or accepting responsibility for the visit. Confirm the organization's legal status, signing authority and relationship with the visitor. The stated purpose should match the supporting evidence and planned activities. Sponsorship for entry should not be confused with permission to employ the person.
Dispute 22/01/2026
Understand criminal defence support for foreign defendants in Vietnam, including procedural rights, interpretation, evidence and early case assessment. Clarify the person's procedural status and obtain advice before important statements or submissions. Defence strategy should be based on the allegation, evidence and applicable safeguards, with coordination for interpretation and consular contact where relevant.
Dispute 26/05/2026
Prepare for commercial dispute litigation in Vietnam with guidance on contracts, jurisdiction, evidence, negotiation, claims and enforcement considerations. Assess the dispute clause and commercial objective before issuing a claim. A well-organized chronology and complete performance record help counsel compare settlement with formal proceedings and explain the risks.
Dispute 04/06/2026
Review divorce involving foreign elements when a spouse is abroad, including jurisdiction, overseas service, documents, participation and child-related issues. Confirm the filing route and the other spouse's address early. Agreement or absence alone does not remove documentary and procedural requirements, especially where children or property connect several countries.
Dispute 22/12/2023
Threats accompanied by demands for money or property require careful and prompt attention. The legal classification depends on the actual conduct and evidence, rather than a generic label such as blackmail used in another legal system. Keep messages, payment demands, account information and records of the events without editing the originals. Avoid unsafe confrontation or public dissemination of private material. Where there is immediate danger, seek assistance from the competent local authority promptly.
Divorce 06/09/2022
The unilateral route allows a spouse to seek divorce without the other's agreement, subject to the applicable legal conditions. The case should explain the marital breakdown and address any requests about children, property and debts with appropriate evidence. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Divorce 29/10/2022
Choosing a divorce lawyer involves understanding the work required in the specific case. Document review, legal analysis, negotiation and procedural assistance can all be relevant, but the scope of the engagement should remain clear and realistic. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Divorce 16/11/2022
Vietnamese divorce procedures differ according to whether the spouses genuinely agree and whether the legal grounds must be established in a contested case. Foreign elements do not create a shortcut; they add questions about jurisdiction, documents and participation. The discussion separates legal requirements from practical preparation and identifies the issues to clarify before taking the next step. It explains why the documents, degree of agreement and specific relief requested should guide the approach rather than a general promise about timing or outcome.
Divorce 14/10/2025
Child custody involving a foreign parent should focus on the child's interests and the evidence supporting a workable care arrangement. Nationality or income alone should not be presented as deciding the case. Describe existing care, schooling, health, living arrangements and the relationship with each parent. Prepare evidence of time, housing, support and practical caregiving. The child's views and the rules relevant to age should be assessed within the applicable family-law framework, rather than treated as an automatic choice of parent.
Investment 25/05/2026
Explore legal representation in Vietnam for clients abroad, including remote work, authorization, foreign documents and limits on personal attendance. Begin with a case review and distinguish advisory work from formal representation. Confirm which documents require originals or authentication and which decisions remain subject to the client's approval.
Investment 09/11/2023
A securities investment company is a regulated structure and should not be confused with an ordinary company that invests its own surplus funds. The proposed model determines which specialized rules and approvals require examination. Clarify whether the proposal involves a public or private structure, who will provide capital and who will manage it. Review the roles of any fund manager, custodian and governing body. Investor eligibility and capital evidence should be assessed under the current securities framework.
Investment 04/01/2024
BCC refers to a Business Cooperation Contract, while Build-Transfer-Operate is commonly abbreviated BTO. These are different concepts. The intended structure must be clarified before a legal assessment can be meaningful. A business cooperation contract sets out cooperation between investors without creating a new economic organization for that arrangement. A BTO infrastructure project involves a different public-private project structure. The parties, project and legal framework should be identified rather than combining the two descriptions.
Investment 18/08/2026
Identify legal risks for foreign investors in Vietnam, including unsuitable structures, conditional sectors, contracts, property and ongoing obligations. A promising commercial proposal still needs a workable legal foundation. Review approvals, signing authority, funds flow and operational permissions before relying on informal assurances or committing to a local arrangement.
