Canada-based firm Harvey Law Group (HLG) has opened an office in the Philippines that is expected to offer immigration and business legal services to corporations and individuals. 

Located in business hub Makati City, the new branch will have a 10-member team and replaces HLG’s eight-year-old representative office in Pasig City.

HLG’s other areas of expertise includes commercial law, contracts, naturalisation and citizenship. “Our new office in Manila reflects the firm’s continuing commitment to the Philippines as well as Asia’s growing role in the global economy,” said managing partner Jean François Harvey, in a statement.

Established in 1992, HLG has offices across the globe, including Montreal, Hong Kong, Beijing, Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok.
