Dentons has completed its combinations with Malaysia’s Zain & Co. and Indonesia’s Hanafiah Ponggawa & Partners as the global legal giant continues its expansion in Southeast Asia, hoping to take advantage of the region’s growing economic potential.

Both Kuala Lumpur-based Zain & Co. and Jakarta-based Hanafiah Ponggawa are 13-partner full-service firms. The tie-ups, announced in March of this year, help Dentons “pursue its strategy to become a pan-Asian law firm that reaches more of Asia than its competitors,” said Elliott Portnoy, global chief executive officer of Dentons. The latest combinations give Dentons reach in 75 countries around the world, including in China, Mongolia, Myanmar, Singapore and South Korea.
