Hiswara Bunjamin & Tandjung (HBT) is a leading Indonesian commercial law firm supported by experienced Herbert Smith lawyers who are on full-time secondment. HBT is also supported by Herbert Smith's Asian and international network of offices.

Our office is in the BRI II Building in the heart of the business district of Jakarta. It is close to the Jakarta Stock Exchange and the head offices of the major international and local banks.

Living and working in Jakarta
As the economic and political capital of Indonesia, Jakarta has a cosmopolitan atmosphere and a diverse culture. Many individuals choose to live in South Jakarta, which is cooler than other areas and has good cafes and supermarkets that stock a wide range of international food.

There are a number of well-known Indonesian restaurants and luxury business hotels near the office, which makes it easy to meet up with clients and friends for work and social events.

HBT has an ongoing commitment to training for both lawyers and staff.  Weekly professional development training, including English language classes, is organised to improve the knowledge and skills of all staff.

The team at HBT is a very close-knit group.

There is a genuine sense of belonging, which translates into a commitment to work and play hard together. Annual trips out of Jakarta for all employees and their families are organised by the firm to a variety of holiday destinations, including Bali, Puncak, and Bandung.
