An entrepreneurial culture, a maturing regulatory framework and relatively stable economy growth make Malaysia one of the best places to do business in Southeast Asia. Our Malaysia lawyers support large state-owned corporations, multinationals and investors seeking new opportunities in Malaysia and neighbouring ASEAN countries.

We are a full-service Firm, committed to helping clients apply industry-specific, innovative and practical solutions in the practices of banking and finance, capital markets, competition and antitrust, employment and labour, dispute resolution, financial services and regulations, intellectual property, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), private equity, projects, real estate, tax, trade and private wealth matters.

Recognized as an "Employer of Choice" in Malaysia by Asian Legal Business for six years running, we strive to create an inclusive workforce and offer two career programs to give young talent the opportunity to gain work experience. Those programs include:

Wong & Partners is a conscientious member of the community and we have a proud commitment of service to our community. The Firm believes in a spirit of volunteerism and supports charities on both long-term projects and a needs-be basis. We are particularly committed to advancing the rights of children, especially in providing educational opportunities and ending all violence against them. Locally, we remain long-term supporters of Pelangi Kasih, which provides free weekend tuition classes for refugee children. While regionally, we have joined forces with the larger Baker McKenzie network to partner with World Vision on their End Violence Against Children programme. Under this initiative, our Firm will provide pro bono legal expertise to enact stronger laws, training on existing laws and legal assistance around specific cases.
