The predecessor to Pham & Associates Law Company Limited (abbreviated as “Pham & Associates”) was the Pham & Associates Law Office, established on October 2, 1991. It stands as one of the earliest law firms in Vietnam to specialize in intellectual property consulting and legal services. In 2001, the firm expanded its scope of practice to include legal consulting services in the field of business law.

Over the past three decades, Pham & Associates has established its reputation and leading position in delivering high-quality services in both Intellectual Property and Business Law, specifically:

1. Intellectual Property (IP):

  • Providing consultancy on all matters relating to IP rights and their enforcement in Vietnam and abroad;
  • Representing domestic and foreign clients in carrying out procedures for the establishment and enforcement of intellectual property rights in Vietnam and abroad, including patents, utility solutions, integrated circuits, industrial designs, trademarks, geographical indications, plant varieties, trade names, trade secrets, copyrights and related rights;
  • Providing other IP-related services, such as searches and assessments of registrability, licensing, assignment and transfer of ownership rights, as well as cancellation and maintenance of the validity of IP protection titles.
  • Regarding IP rights enforcement, upon authorization from clients, our lawyers may initiate legal proceedings before the courts to resolve IP disputes or request the relevant competent authorities to handle IP infringements through administrative or criminal measures.

2. Business Law:

  • Providing legal advice on matters relating to business operations, including investment, mergers and acquisitions, trade and commerce, energy, finance, banking, import and export, labor, taxation, real estate, corporate legal advisory services, etc.
  • Representing clients in litigation and dispute resolution proceedings before judicial and dispute resolution bodies, including courts, arbitration tribunals and other competent authorities.
  • Handling all administrative procedures required to obtain various licenses and permits from the competent authorities.

As of 2025, Pham & Associates has its head office in Hanoi and branch offices in Ho Chi Minh City (established in 1995) and Da Nang (established in 2001). This network enables our lawyers and experts to conveniently serve clients throughout Vietnam. We work with clients through various communication channels. However, direct, face-to-face consultation remains the most effective approach, particularly in complex cases and matters involving the handling of IP infringements and disputes.
