Since its establishment in 2019, Frans & Setiawan Law has emerged as one of Indonesia\u2019s leading legal firms. Specializing in corporate law, litigation and advisory services to local and Japanese businesses, F&S has earned a strong reputation for its strategic approach and practical legal solutions. The firm was founded by Alfin Frans Nainggolan and Hendra Setiawan Boen, who combined their previous firms \u2014 Frans & Associates and Setiawan & Partners \u2014 into a powerhouse capable of offering robust legal services across diverse segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its short history, F&S has handled high-profile international trade dispute cases, securing positive outcomes for clients. Over the past three years, the firm has also been recognized for its work in company restructuring and strength in navigating complex corporate issues. \u201cThis shows the market\u2019s recognition of our expertise in these two fields,\u201d Nainggolan noted. Moreover, Nainggolan\u2019s recognition as one of the 40 Finest Lawyers in Asia Under 40 by Asian Legal Business in 2022 further attests to the firm\u2019s growing influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A cornerstone of F&S\u2019 success is its long-standing relationship with the Japanese business community, which began in 2013 when Nainggolan started building connections with Japanese lawyers and subsidiaries in Indonesia. To date, F&S remains dedicated to serving several Japanese clients, demonstrating its commitment to addressing their unique legal needs with a deep understanding of their specific traits and expectations. \u201cWe believe that our diligence, thoroughness, practical approach and understanding of the characteristics of Japanese clients are important values in maintaining our relationship with them,\u201d Nainggolan said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, F&S is well positioned to seize new opportunities as Indonesia\u2019s economy shows positive signs of growth, particularly under President Prabowo Subianto\u2019s administration. The firm\u2019s expertise in investment, mergers and acquisitions, company restructuring and construction allows it to confidently service a range of clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe that our diligence, thoroughness, practical approach and understanding of the characteristics of Japanese clients are important values in maintaining our relationship with them.<\/p>Alfin Frans Nainggolan<\/strong>, Founder of Frans & Setiawan Law<\/mark><\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n

\u201cThis represents our strengths and opportunities to extend our legal services going forward, to both local and Japanese businesses. We believe that Japanese businesses are a good friend and important investors for Indonesia,\u201d Nainggolan said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, F&S\u2019 expertise in handling international trade disputes gives them a strong competitive edge, particularly given the challenges in the global economy. \u201cThis also provides a good opportunity for us, especially given the current global economic situation,\u201d Nainggolan added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its proven track record, F&S continues to shape Indonesia\u2019s legal landscape, solidifying its position as a formidable player in the country\u2019s legal sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
