Practice FAQs

Common questions about our practice

Jurisdictional and scope-of-work questions we hear most. For matter-specific advice, book a free consultation.

Can Nelwan & Co represent me in Indonesian courts?

Yes. Our lawyers are licensed Indonesian advocates (PERADI / KAI) and appear in district, high, and Supreme Courts, the Constitutional Court, the Commercial Court (Niaga), the Industrial Relations Court (PHI), and administrative courts (PTUN).

Can the firm help me set up a PT PMA?

Yes. PT PMA establishment is a core service — minimum capital structuring, KBLI selection, OSS-RBA business licensing, sector-specific approvals, notarial deeds, and post-incorporation compliance.

Does the firm handle criminal cases?

Yes — criminal defence, investigations and audits, and filing criminal reports, including white-collar matters, ITE Law (electronic information and transactions), narcotics, and corruption cases.

Can Nelwan & Co act as outside general counsel on a retainer?

Yes. Our monthly retainer is built for recurring use — clients with regular contract flow, compliance work, or advisory needs get a meaningfully better rate than project-based billing, plus priority response, a dedicated partner who knows the business, and the ability to escalate matters directly without going through intake each time. A typical retainer covers day-to-day legal assistance — a defined volume of advisory hours, contract review and drafting, and ongoing compliance support. Scope and fee are tailored at the start and reviewed periodically.
