Barrister

In the practice of practicing law in Vietnam, a Barrister is a person who directly participates in the dispute settlement process from the time the parties exercise their right to initiate a lawsuit, conduct procedural procedures until the case ends with an effective judgment or decision of a court or commercial arbitration. For criminal cases,  Procedural lawyers can participate right from the investigation stage. In addition, the scope of activities of procedural lawyers is increasingly expanded, not only limited to participating in litigation in court but also including non-procedural dispute resolution methods, such as negotiation, mediation and negotiation between parties, as well as participating in litigation at commercial arbitration.

With the increasingly diverse development of social relations, Barrister  are present in almost all areas of disputes, including commercial, labor, civil, criminal, intellectual property, and administrative. In order to meet the professional requirements and professional practice,  Litigation lawyers not only need to have a solid foundation of legal knowledge but also accumulate practical experience to be able to independently handle disputes, minimize risks and best protect the interests of clients. In addition, experience and professional qualities are also important factors that determine the effectiveness of a litigation lawyer in the process of providing legal services

Defense Lawyer

Defense is one of the basic and important rights of the accused according to the provisions of criminal law. The right to defense allows the accused person to use legal remedies to dismiss, deny part or all of the allegations, or to mitigate the criminal liability they incur. The accused person may defend himself or ask the defense counsel to assist in the proceeding.

The concept of "Defense Laywer" is not specifically stipulated in the Criminal Code, but is only mentioned indirectly in the Criminal Procedure Code through the term "Defense Counsel", in which the Lawyer is one of the subjects who can perform this role. Based on current legal provisions, it can be understood  that a defense lawyer is a lawyer invited by the accused person or appointed by the competent agency conducting the proceedings to participate in the defense. The defense process of a lawyer can start from the stage of investigation, prosecution, trial and even extend to the stage of judgment enforcement in order to best protect the legitimate rights and interests of the client.

Criminal law relations are a particularly important field, directly related to human rights and citizens' rights. Therefore, defense lawyers at Vo & Associates must fully meet professional standards, including analytical and case research skills, litigation skills, sharp critical thinking, and professional bravery to ensure the best legal protection for clients

Litigation at court

Court proceedings are an important legal process, lasting from the moment one of the parties makes a request to initiate a lawsuit (or initiating a criminal case) and ends when the court judgment/decision is enforced. Throughout this process, parties with opposing interests have the right to make requests, provide evidence, and participate in arguments to protect their legitimate rights and interests before the jurisdiction.

At each stage of the proceedings, the parties need to understand their rights and obligations in order to perform these rights and obligations in a reasonable manner, thereby protecting their legitimate rights and interests to the maximum. In this process, procedural lawyers play an extremely important role. They not only participate in "litigation in court" but also have to perform important tasks from the early stages, such as collecting evidence, preparing case files, and developing handling plans and strategies for litigation in court in accordance with legal regulations to protect the interests of clients. Moreover, the necessity of a litigation lawyer lies not only in protecting the legal rights of clients, but also in the ability to help clients understand legal regulations and procedures. As a result, customers can make reasonable decisions in the process of resolving disputes and protecting their rights in the most effective way.

Commercial Arbitration

According to  the Law on Commercial Arbitration 2010 of Vietnam, commercial arbitration is defined as "a method of dispute resolution in the commercial field, in which the disputing parties voluntarily choose arbitrators or commercial arbitration institutions to resolve disputes".

This can be simply understood as  commercial arbitration is an out-of-court dispute resolution method, especially for disputes in the commercial field. Parties to a dispute, usually a business or organization, voluntarily bring their case to be resolved by one or a group of arbitrators (experts with legal or economic experience), rather than initiating a lawsuit in court.

The current dispute resolution process by commercial arbitration is selected based on the voluntariness of the parties and has many advantages compared to settling in court. Arbitration not only provides a quick settlement process but also provides high information security, helping the parties keep important information confidential throughout the proceedings.

One of the outstanding benefits of commercial arbitration is that the arbitrator's decision is binding on the parties to the dispute. This decision can be enforced as a court judgment  and is binding on all parties. In addition, the arbitration process is often completed more quickly than the court process, which saves time and costs for the parties.

In Vietnam, commercial arbitration is governed by the Law on Commercial Arbitration 2010, and has the participation of reputable commercial arbitration institutions such as  the Vietnam International Arbitration Center (VIAC) and  the Hanoi International Arbitration Center (HIAC). These are popular organizations that businesses can choose to resolve commercial disputes
