Low & Partners

What Low & Partners does

Low & Partners is a full-service Malaysian law firm founded in April 2009 by Dato' Andy Low Hann Yong, headquartered in Damansara Utama, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. The firm operates 16 office locations across Malaysia covering the Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Seremban, Kuantan, Kedah, Melaka, and the 2025 additions of Klang, Taiping, and Triang. Practice areas span divorce and family law, probate and estate administration, real estate and property law, civil and commercial litigation, corporate and commercial law (including M&A, IPO, venture capital, Islamic finance, and shipping/maritime law), criminal defense, employment law, intellectual property and technology, personal data protection, cryptocurrency/fintech/blockchain, and privacy/cybersecurity. The firm is structured into specialized Foreign Service Desks serving China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and Indonesia, with an international associate network spanning Singapore, Indonesia, Dubai, Vietnam, Australia, and Korea.

The firm is partnership-owned with 14+ equity partners and a multidisciplinary team of 65+ lawyers (Partners, Principal Associates, Senior Associates, and Associates) supported by 200+ staff. Growth has been executed through a programmatic roll-up strategy, merging Foo Chambers (2017), Hee Chong & Partners (2020), Nahvinah Selvaraj's firm (2024), and Regina Daniel & Co. (2026). Technology infrastructure consists of standard legal practice management and document management systems; no AI/ML capabilities or proprietary technology products are evidenced.

The revenue model is professional services, with fees generated on a quote-based, pay-as-you-go basis tied to matter complexity and time involved. The firm serves four primary customer segments: individual clients (divorce, estate, property, criminal defense), banks and financial institutions (panel law firm work covering loan documentation, debt recovery, bankruptcy, regulatory), property developers (sale and purchase, joint ventures, project financing), and corporate/public-listed clients (M&A, commercial contracts, employment, IPO). Panel relationships with 13+ Malaysian financial institutions (Public Bank, Maybank, CIMB, RHB, Hong Leong, UOB, Standard Chartered, OCBC, BSN, Alliance, Affin, LPPSA, AIA) and developers (IJM, Sunsuria, MITRALAND, Exsim, Hartamas) anchor enterprise revenue, while over 20,000 cumulative individual clients provide a long-tail volume base. Marketing is conducted through the firm website, content/articles, media appearances, seminars, and client referrals.
