KPMG Law has expanded its ASEAN network to the Philippines after entering into an association with the newly launched firm Inicio Law.

At the end of last year, KPMG Law became a serious player in the ASEAN region after acquiring a significant part of the legal offering of the ZICO Law network. The addition of Inicio Law will serve to bolster its credentials in Southeast Asia further.

A full-service business law firm that provides advice on disputes, M&A, banking and finance, projects, data security, insolvency and restructuring, intellectual property and Islamic finance, Inicio Law is headed by managing partner Maria Pia Altea-Urgello, and has two other partners: Alexander Ner and Mary Aubrey Leigh Lim.
