Office contacts


We have been providing legal services to the Royal Government of Cambodia, international investors, financiers and multilateral organisations in Cambodia since 1994, and we have had an office in Phnom Penh since 1999.

We are rated as a first tier law firm in Cambodia by the independent surveys Chambers Asia 2008 and Asia Pacific Legal 500 2007-08. Our experience and understanding of the legal and commercial environment, combined with our international expertise and regional resources, makes us an unmatched provider of legal services in Cambodia.

The focus of our practice in Cambodia is energy and resources (particularly oil and gas), major projects, banking and finance, M&A, inbound investment and corporate and commercial advice. We have an impressive track record in these areas and have been closely involved with some of the largest international investments in Cambodia. Recent work has included:

  • acting for Shinhan Bank in relation to a substantial loan for the development and construction of a major mining project to extract stone for use in the construction of roads, infrastructure and buildings in Cambodia;
  • acted for a leading international telecommunications company with respect to its Export Credit Agency-backed supplier credit facility arrangements with a Cambodian mobile telecommunications operator.The facility arrangements will fund the development and roll-out of a substantial new 3G telecommunications network;
  • advising a major Chinese company on its acquisition of a 51 per cent interest of a Cambodian mining company in connection with a project to develop a major iron ore mine and associated facilities and infrastructure in Cambodia;
  • advised Total Oil Asia in connection with its acquisition of the downstream assets of Shell in Cambodia, including Shell's retail supply and aviation jet fuel supply businesses;
  • assisting the Government of Cambodia with its endeavours to resolve overlapping maritime claims with Thailand, the negotiation and award of petroleum concessions and the ongoing development of the regulatory regime for the oil and gas industries;
  • acting for BHP Billiton in relation to its agreement with Mitsubishi Corp and the Cambodian government to explore for bauxite in eastern Cambodia;
  • acting for the ANZ Banking Group on the establishment of ANZ Royal, a full commercial and retail banking operation in Cambodia, in joint venture with the Royal Group.
