In Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar, Tilleke & Gibbins was recognized as “Highly Recommended” for General Business Law, the only practice area currently ranked by Asialaw Profiles for these developing jurisdictions.

For industry sectors, the Cambodia office was “Highly Recommended” in Consumer Goods and Services, and “Recommended” in Industrials and Manufacturing. In the analysis section, one client commented, “The firm is wonderful. Great follow up. No need to use anyone else.”

The Laos office was “Recommended” in both Banking and Financial Services and Infrastructure, (the only two industry sectors included in the Laos rankings), with a client praising the team as “diligent and highly responsive.”

Myanmar had a particularly strong showing, with rankings in every available industry sector: “Highly Recommended” in Banking and Financial Services and Energy, and “Recommended” in Infrastructure, Real Estate, and Technology and Telecoms.
