Yau & Associates is a partner-led legal practice with roots tracing back to 2009. Our journey reflects a commitment to agility, commercial judgement and hands-on delivery.
Back to Our Firm →The founding partner established his own practice in 2009 to provide pragmatic, business-oriented legal advice to clients across a range of industries.
In 2013, the practice merged with several local firms and helped build Christopher, Lee & Ong into a regionally affiliated Malaysian law firm.
More than a decade later, the practice returns under its original name as Yau & Associates, with a leaner, partner-led model that prioritises direct access, commercial judgement and practical outcomes.
We invest the time to understand our clients' businesses and objectives so we can provide advice that is clear, practical and aligned with the outcomes they seek to achieve.
