Enterprise 25/10/2025
Foreign employees may need help understanding Vietnamese employment documents and the procedure for raising a claim. A useful legal assessment combines the employment facts with any work and residence consequences. Unpaid wages, disputed benefits, working conditions and termination should be separated. Provide the contract, policies, pay records and relevant decisions with a chronology. Explain what the employee seeks and whether any payment or settlement has already been offered.
Enterprise 25/03/2026
Review Vietnam franchising rules, including the franchise model, operating history, disclosure, registration and key contractual issues. The applicable obligations depend on the direction and structure of the franchise. Check brand rights, disclosure materials, operational scope and dispute terms before granting or accepting commercial rights.
Enterprise 21/05/2026
Identify corporate governance mistakes in Vietnam, including weak shareholder terms, unclear authority, poor records and unmanaged related-party risks. Review the charter, decision process and actual management practice together. Proper approvals and accessible records can support operations and evidence if a shareholder, director or regulatory disagreement develops.
Enterprise 25/09/2023
A share transfer changes ownership in a joint-stock company, but the signed transfer contract is only part of the transaction. Restrictions, payment, shareholder records and regulatory filings should be addressed together. Review the share class, founding-shareholder status, charter and any shareholder agreement. Public-company and securities rules may add requirements. A foreign buyer should assess market access and investment approval issues before assuming that a freely transferable share is unrestricted in every respect.
Foreigners 27/06/2026
Review legal risk assessment for foreign investors in Vietnam, including market access, structure, contracts, premises, employment and enforcement. Identify material issues before capital or operational commitments become binding. The review should connect the actual business model with licensing, control rights, supporting records and realistic dispute remedies.
Foreigners 16/10/2023
Un client francophone a besoin d’une analyse liée aux faits et à la procédure applicable au Vietnam. Préparez un résumé, les documents complets, les notifications et les échéances. Clarifiez la langue de travail, les traductions, les livrables, les honoraires et le rôle de chaque intervenant avant de confier une consultation, une rédaction ou une représentation.
Foreigners 16/10/2023
Русскоязычным клиентам может потребоваться консультация по инвестициям, недвижимости, трудовым, семейным вопросам или спору во Вьетнаме. Для оценки нужны полные документы, сведения о сторонах, хронология и сроки. Заранее согласуйте рабочий язык, перевод, порядок отчетности, расходы и объем поручения, а также распределение задач между Вьетнамом и другими странами.
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.
Dispute 25/10/2025
A business receiving a lawsuit or procedural notice should identify the required response promptly. A calm, organized review is more useful than an immediate denial or an informal promise to resolve everything later. Keep the envelope or service record, claim documents and relevant contracts, correspondence, invoices and performance evidence. Identify the person authorized to instruct counsel. A lawyer can assess jurisdiction, deadlines, defenses and any counterclaim from the complete record.
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.
Dispute 15/08/2024
International sales disputes can concern delivery, quality, payment or contract termination. The legal analysis begins with the complete agreement, the parties' places of business and the law or rules that govern the sale. Review purchase orders, specifications, delivery terms, transport records, inspection results and payment documents. Identify notices of non-conformity or default and when they were sent. A disagreement about goods should not be reduced to a general statement that a contract was breached.
Dispute 29/07/2023
Dispute lawyers assess legal rights, organise evidence and help clients compare negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation. Their role includes managing procedural risks and explaining the strengths and limitations of a claim. The discussion describes the legal work involved in a dispute rather than promising success. Clients can use it to prepare the contracts, correspondence and questions needed for an informed first discussion.
Divorce 22/10/2022
A custody proposal should explain how the child's daily care, education and emotional needs will be met. Parents should also consider support and continuing contact with the other parent, rather than treating direct care as the end of all shared responsibilities. The discussion considers the child’s welfare, the evidence parents can prepare and the practical effect of the proposed arrangement. It also distinguishes direct care from continuing support and contact obligations, so the request can be assessed on its own facts.
Divorce 25/10/2022
Before filing for divorce, separate the decision to end the marriage from the consequences that also need attention. Children, support, ownership and debts may require their own evidence, even where both spouses agree that the marriage should end. 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 22/10/2022
The appropriate divorce procedure depends on the level of agreement and the issues requiring resolution. Foreign elements, disputed property, child arrangements and difficulties serving a spouse can affect the preparation and the stages that follow filing. 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 28/12/2022
An older document checklist should be checked against the needs of the current case. A foreign-element divorce may require review of the marriage record, residence information, the respondent's overseas location and the formal preparation of documents issued abroad. The discussion explains the preparation issues that international families should consider before filing. It connects document readiness with procedural requirements and highlights the need to assess overseas residence, service and practical participation without assuming that every case follows the same timetable.
Investment 17/07/2023
Investment lawyers help investors connect a proposed business model with the legal requirements for ownership, licensing, contracts and operation in Vietnam. Their work begins before funds are committed and continues as the project develops. This guide explains the main workstreams rather than promising approval or returns. Investors can use it to identify the questions, project documents and transaction risks to discuss before choosing an investment structure.
Investment 13/10/2025
Foreign property purchases in Vietnam should be assessed by reference to the buyer and the specific asset. Eligible housing ownership is different from owning land or acquiring unrestricted rights in every property. Review the buyer's status, project, property type and applicable restrictions or foreign ownership limits. Obtain the relevant project and seller documents and verify the information supporting the sale. A numerical quota alone does not establish that a particular unit is available to the buyer.
Investment 26/09/2023
Investment incentives depend on the project and the applicable legal conditions, rather than the investor's expectation of a tax saving. A project may need to establish its eligibility and complete procedures with the authority responsible for the particular benefit. Separate corporate income tax, import-duty, land-related and other benefits. Review the sector, location, project scale and any qualifying certification. An incentive mentioned in an investment document should be checked against the detailed rules governing its application.
Investment 06/03/2026
Review conditions and documents for a foreign company's representative office in Vietnam, including permitted scope, parent-company records and premises. A representative office serves permitted liaison and promotional functions rather than ordinary revenue-generating business. Review eligibility and the parent company's documents before choosing this structure or committing to an office lease.
