“Melissa consistently provides well-considered legal advice that takes into account not only legal and corporate aspects, but also relevant industry practices, particularly among other Indonesian state-owned enterprises (BUMNs). Her insights are always enlightening and tailored to the practical realities we face.
We have frequently received constructive suggestions from her including timely reminders on seemingly minor yet critical matters—such as alignment with our Articles of Association or the need for shareholder approval—which could easily be overlooked. Her attention to such details is highly valuable.
Melissa is also highly responsive and accessible, even in urgent situations. She is able to promptly deliver clear preliminary advice, followed by a comprehensive legal analysis—either directly or through her team—within the timeline we require. This reliability and depth of support have made her a trusted legal advisor for our team.”
