Firm Profile
Russin & Vecchi was founded in Asia over 50 years ago to serve emerging economies. It had an office in Vietnam from 1966 to 1975. Its Vietnam practice reopened in Ho Chi Minh City in 1993, and its office in Hanoi opened a year later. Cumulatively, it has over 35 years experience operating in Vietnam.

Russin & Vecchi’s Vietnam practice serves both Vietnamese and foreign clients investing, financing, and providing services in Vietnam. We advise clients on alternative structures available to operate in Vietnam; we assist them to set up; and, more importantly, we advise on ongoing legal issues which arise as a result of operating within the country. In addition to its corporate practice, Russin & Vecchi has an active M&A, banking and finance, capital markets, real estate, infrastructure, tax, employment law, intellectual property and other practice areas.
