Who we are
Founded in 1968 by the late Dato' Sri V.P. Nathan, the firm grew from a single Kuala Lumpur practice into a nationwide presence spanning seven offices and a team of close to one hundred. We have acted for most of Malaysia's major insurers since 1968, and our work today reaches across litigation, conveyancing, corporate advisory, employment, banking and family law.
