CHINA DESK

Lee Hishammuddin Allen & Gledhill (LHAG) has been providing legal services since 1902 and is currently one of the largest law firms in Malaysia. LHAG has a renowned longstanding reputation in the legal industry due to our accumulated experience and expertise in facilitating major corporate and commercial transactions associated with or materially impacting social, economic, and financial developments in Malaysia.
