- The Legal 500 Asia Pacific

The global business community is more interconnected than ever before. Opportunities and risks cross multiple markets, sectors and areas of law, requiring an integrated, connected approach to achieving business goals while mitigating risk.

Digital transformation is no longer a singular project but an ongoing necessity. Supply chain disruption is a constant threat. Beyond the completion of a transaction, deal value is realized only through successful integration. Workforces are redesigned, changing how and where we do our jobs. Business leaders are seeking growth that is both sustainable — and inclusive.

Quisumbing Torres delivers holistic solutions to interconnected challenges.

We work collaboratively with our clients, providing the appropriate perspective to inform decision-making while managing risk. We assist business leaders in gaining access to untapped opportunities.

Clients benefit from insight and foresight from our seasoned legal team of more than 50 Philippine lawyers working together across practice areas, industry sectors and geographic borders as a member firm of Baker & McKenzie International, a Swiss Verein, for six decades.

Guiding you every step of the way.
