Six ABNR Lawyers Named Among Indonesia’s Top 100 Lawyers by ABLJ
Six lawyers from ABNR have been named among Indonesia’s Top 100 Lawyers in the 2025 edition of the Asia Business Law Journal (ABLJ) A-List. The A-List is the result of a rigorous research process conducted by ABLJ, which surveyed thousands of in-house counsel—both in Indonesia and globally—alongside senior partners at international firms with longstanding engagement in the Indonesian legal market.
This year’s list also includes one of our partners who has been named a Legal Icon, a distinction reserved for those described by ABLJ as “the luminaries of Indonesia’s legal profession: the titans who command the respect of clients and juniors alike; the mentors who lead the country’s most admired firms and legal teams; and the profession’s most prolific rainmakers.”
Meet the ABNR Lawyers on the 2025 A-List:
- Emir Nurmansyah – Legal Icon

 With more than 25 years advising on landmark projects and complex cross-sector mandates, Emir continues to be a defining presence in Indonesia’s legal and infrastructure space.
