Legal Advisory & Contract Risk Management in Vietnam
Green NRJ supports foreign-invested businesses and cross-border operators with practical legal advisory focused on contract protection, regulatory risk, and operational decision-making. We help you sign with confidence, avoid costly disputes, and keep your business aligned with Vietnam’s compliance requirements — without overcomplicating execution.

A focused advisory scope designed for real operating decisions — built around contract protection, regulatory alignment, and governance clarity.
Contract Drafting & Review
- Distribution, agency, service, and supply agreements
- Import/export & commercial terms aligned with Vietnam practice
- Payment safeguards, liability caps, penalty exposure, and termination strategy
- Dispute clauses: governing law, venue, evidence & enforceability considerations
Regulatory Risk Assessment
- Business scope mismatch vs. licensing & market access
- Foreign ownership restrictions & conditional business lines
- Trading/retail compliance risks (where applicable)
- Authority-facing clarification notes & risk-mitigation recommendations
Corporate Governance Support
- Shareholder arrangements, internal approvals, board resolutions
- Capital contribution risk & documentation hygiene
- Delegation of authority, signing rules, and internal control basics

Pre-Dispute Strategy (Non-Litigation)

- Formal notices, demand letters, and negotiation positioning
- Evidence & timeline preparation (to prevent escalation)
- Where formal litigation is required: coordinate with licensed counsel

FAQ
Do you provide litigation or court representation?
We focus on preventive advisory and pre-dispute strategy. Where formal litigation is required, we coordinate with licensed litigation counsel as needed.
Can you review contracts drafted under foreign law?
Yes. We assess practical enforceability in Vietnam and flag clause risks (payment, evidence, termination, penalties, dispute clauses).
How fast can you review a contract?
Depends on length and complexity. We can prioritize urgent reviews and start with high-risk clauses and deal-breakers first.
Is this advisory relevant if we already have a law firm?
Yes. We complement legal drafting with regulatory-operational risk framing to reduce surprises after signing and during execution.
Need a contract reviewed before signing?
Share your draft and transaction context. We provide structured risk analysis, enforceability review, and clear decision pathways aligned with Vietnam practice.
