Global | Press release - Firm | July 2024
Indonesian law firm TNB & Partners, which operates in association with global law firm Norton Rose Fulbright, announced that Erie Tobing has joined as a partner.
Erie is an experienced dispute resolution partner across litigation, arbitration, alternative dispute resolution, bankruptcy, banking and finance, insurance and general corporate affairs. He is a well-regarded advisor to clients in industries such as construction, financial institutions, mining, shipping, marine insurance and telecommunications.
Erie joins from Indonesian law firm Soemadipradja & Taher (S&T) where he was a dispute resolution partner.
TNB & Partners opened in Jakarta, Indonesia in January 2016, having commenced its association with Norton Rose Fulbright’s Australian partnership. Norton Rose Fulbright, working with Indonesian counsel, has been assisting clients in Indonesia for nearly 30 years. As Southeast Asia's largest economy, Indonesia attracts investors with its growing domestic market, stability and manufacturers' access to natural resources.
Norton Rose Fulbright managing partner in Australia Alison Deitz commented:
“It is a priority of our firm to continue to work with clients in the Asia-Pacific region and strengthen ties with our Asia offices, including our associate firm TNB & Partners in Jakarta. The proximity of Indonesia to Australia, relative health of both economies, and close business ties between the two countries will continue to generate opportunities for our clients. The addition of Erie with his strong disputes and arbitration background will only help with this goal.”
TNB & Partners managing partner Kresna Panggabean commented:
“Erie will add depth to our dispute resolution offering in Indonesia, alongside our existing strengths in corporate and banking and finance advice. Through our association with Norton Rose Fulbright in Australia, TNB & Partners is well placed to assist domestic and international clients as they grow in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.”
Erie Tobing commented:
“It has been an ambition of mine to join an Indonesian partnership aligned with a global law firm, in order to access more international work and further grow my international arbitration practice in particular. I am thrilled to have joined TNB & Partners and look forward to working with my colleagues in Indonesia, and those at Norton Rose Fulbright in Australia and around the world, for the benefit of our clients.”
