Lean legal. Bold business.
FC Legal is a Hanoi law firm that works with businesses before problems arise: we find risks early, protect what you have built and keep your operations running on solid legal ground.
Your outsourced legal team in Vietnam
Trust is built on how the work is controlled.
We act as the legal department many companies do not have in-house: a named lawyer who knows your business, answers quickly and keeps you ahead of changes in Vietnamese law.
Our focus is preventive legal risk management, with particular depth in intellectual property and personal data protection. For foreign-invested companies we advise in English and Vietnamese, so decisions are not slowed down by translation.
Every matter follows the same seven steps
A single process for all work, so you always know where things stand, which risks need attention and what comes next.

- MANAGEPlan and track the work

How we control the quality of our service
We only take on work we do well
Conflict checks, client verification and an honest assessment of our capacity before we accept a matter.
Scope agreed in writing
Scope, deliverables, deadlines and your point of contact are set out in writing before work starts.
Every matter has a plan
Milestones and regular reports, so you always know which stage your matter has reached.
A second lawyer checks
Opinions rely on laws in force, cite their sources and are reviewed by a second lawyer before they reach you.
No surprise invoices
Fees are quoted in advance and tied to scope. Any extra cost is notified first and only incurred with your approval.
Data and technology handled responsibly
Access to client information is restricted and stored securely. Technology, including AI, is used only within agreed confidentiality limits and always checked by a lawyer.
Independent and candid
We tell you the risks, even when that is not what you want to hear, in line with the Code of Ethics for Vietnamese lawyers.
The result: you know the problem, the scope, the risks, the cost and the next action, every time.
We turn legal questions into decisions you can act on
Every issue is worked through the same framework, linking the law to how your business actually runs, so the options we give you are clear and workable.
