Practice
One axis, three ways in.
The law governing the earth, the assets attached to it, and the value drawn from them. Our categories describe what you receive, how the work is scoped, and what must be in place before we accept it.
01Pemeriksaan
Examination
What can be established from your documents today. Fixed scope, fixed fee, delivered by advocates.
Discuss an engagementSupply contract examination: CBAM & EUDR
We read the contract against the rules that now apply: the first operator, CBAM cost allocation, geolocation warranties, audit rights, remedies, and change of law. You receive the clauses likely to be tested first and the defects they create.
Grower and supplier data protection
Geolocation and supplier records may identify people and travel to overseas recipients. We examine the lawful basis, disclosure obligations, and transfer arrangements that support your evidence-sharing process, with an opinion your European buyer can read.
Disclosure sequencing
A plot map can reveal a plantation within a forest estate. We advise what can lawfully be stated, in what form, to whom, and in what order, including whether an administrative issue must be resolved before disclosure.
Hazardous waste (B3) compliance examination
The permit chain is read as one document: environmental approval, waste-management licences for each activity and issuing authority, storage periods, logbooks, manifests, and reporting. We identify the points likely to be tested by inspectors and, where relevant, prosecutors.
Pemeriksaan is open now. Each engagement is defined by an agreed scope and logged against the firm’s framework of defects.
02Pernyataan
Statements
What we are prepared to stand behind, by name. Issued only where the method, partners, and evidence are in place.
Discuss an engagementOrigin legality opinion
A written opinion on the legal status of a production unit: a plot, vessel, or site. Where the engagement calls for it, spatial and academic findings accompany the advocate’s legal analysis. The opinion identifies the instruments examined, its basis, and its limits.
Certification scheme assessment
We assess what ISPO, RSPO, or SVLK documentation establishes for a stated legal purpose. A certificate is considered alongside the underlying facts, the relevant obligation, and the gaps that the certificate cannot resolve.
Tenurial verification and FPIC assessment
We assess whether community consent is free, prior, and informed against a written method and documented evidence. The inquiry addresses the rights asserted, the participants, the process, and the legal significance of the record.
Carbon market instruments
Ownership and transfer of emission reduction units, SPE-GRK registration, and IDX Carbon transactions. The firm also screens carbon and sustainability instruments under fikih muamalah: mal mutaqawwam, gharar, maysir, riba, and the project’s relationship to maqasid al-shariah.
Pernyataan is accepted selectively, once the applicable field protocol, partner arrangements, and evidence are in place. Opinions on which third parties may rely require the signatures of both Managing Partners.
03Pendampingan
Continuing engagement
Counsel that stays with you through proceedings, accreditation, and time.
Discuss an engagementAdministrative proceedings
Advice on the Article 110A/110B administrative route, fine determination, forest-area release, and challenges to state administrative decisions, assessed against the instruments applicable to the matter.
Disputes and environmental criminal proceedings
Environmental, contractual, and administrative disputes before Indonesian courts and administrative bodies. Defence of corporations and directors in B3 and environmental criminal matters with appropriate technical experts; BANI or Basyarnas arbitration where the parties agree.
Institutional and accreditation matters
Governance documents, impartiality and conflict frameworks, contracting, and liability structures for institutions operating within KAN accreditation frameworks.
Continuing retainer
Standing counsel for exporters, institutions, and verification bodies. A continuing retainer follows an examination or a statement, so that the engagement starts from an established understanding of the evidence and risk.
A retainer with this firm follows an examination or a statement. It is never the first product.
The evidence sets the method.
Our role is legal: we examine the instruments and state what the record can support.
01Start from the document
The first question is what evidence exists. We examine the records before deciding what can be said about the rule.
02Use a defined framework of defects
A finite, versioned register connects a defect in a legality claim to its legal instrument. It supports each examination and opinion.
03Go to the ground when needed
Plot visits, local land register searches, land office checks, and interviews with occupants and customary claimants, described and undertaken as legal work.
04Write so the reader can act
The operative conclusion comes first. The reasoning follows, with the evidence gaps and limits stated plainly.
The limits of our work.
- We do not issue verification statements or certifications. That authority belongs to accredited bodies.
- We do not calculate emissions. We address the legal questions those figures raise.
- We do not accept fees contingent on regulatory, verification, or certification outcomes.
- We do not partner with ministries, regulators, or certification bodies whose status we may review.
- We do not act for both sides of the same matter.
- We decline work where the necessary method, partner arrangements, or evidence are not in place.
