Martinez Vergara & Gonzalez Sociedad Mvgs

With the combined experience of the Firm’s partners, Martinez Vergara & Gonzalez Sociedad (MVGS) takes pride in having established itself as a leading law firm in the Philippines, providing a full range of excellent legal services in the areas of Banking and Finance, Capital Markets, Mergers & Acquisitions, Projects & Energy, Intellectual Property, Litigation and Alternative Dispute Resolution, Labor and Employment and Immigration. MVGS is committed to meeting its clients’ needs by working closely with them to gain a better understanding of their needs and objectives. The Firm always aims to match its clients’ needs with appropriate strategies and legal services of the highest quality in a cost-efficient and timely manner. MVGS is committed to providing pro bono services as part of its professional responsibility to provide legal services and representation to those who do not have access to law firms, including socio-civic and charitable foundations, non- governmental organizations (NGOs), and the underprivileged. The Firm encourages all its lawyers to perform pro bono work, subject to the Firm’s pro bono policies. Pro bono work contributes to the professional growth and development of the Firm’s lawyers, and benefits them in many ways, such as providing them insights on social, political and environmental issues, as well as developing in them the value of giving back to the community. As the Firm is committed to pro bono work, lawyers are expected to meet the same standards. MVGS joined Drew Network Asia (DNA) in October 2021. Formed in March 2020, DNA is an alliance of some of the most influential and well-established South East Asian law firms, namely Drew & Napier LLC from Singapore, Makarim & Taira S. from Indonesia and Shearn Delamore & Co. from Malaysia. The addition of MVGS further expands DNA’s regional footprint in ASEAN which now boasts more than 480 fee earners and 150 partners in four countries: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines.
