Ahmad Maulana
Maulana, or Alan as he is known to just about everyone, joined Assegaf Hamzah & Partners in 2006, having earlier earned his spurs at another leading Jakarta law firm.
Deeply interested in good governance and legal reform, Alan commenced his career as a researcher with the University of Indonesia Law School’s Judicial Monitoring Society. It was the same concerns that led him to join Media Center KPU, a UNDP-sponsored program aimed at disseminating information on electoral issues in Indonesia.
Alan now specializes in commercial litigation and dispute resolution. He also has a particular interest in criminal law as well as employment-related disputes.
In 2010, he was seconded to the commercial litigation practice of Rajah & Tann LLP in Singapore, which has resulted in him forging close links with a number of leading Singaporean lawyers.
A practicing advocate, Alan holds a bachelor of law degree, majoring in procedural law, from the University of Indonesia, and an advocate's professional training certificate from the Indonesian Bar Association (Peradi), of which he is also an active member. In his younger days, Alan was an avid participant in moot court competitions, and was on the team that won the Atma Jaya University Moot Criminal Court Competition for Jakarta Universities in 2000. He was also one of the winners of the Jakarta School Debating Competition in 1999.
Outside of the office, jazz devotee Alan is actively involved in charitable work with a number of social and community organizations. He also provides leadership training to members of the Islamic Students Association at the University of Indonesia’s Faculty of Law, and coaches law students participating in mooting competitions.
