Our Story
Founded in 1933 as a Dutch owned general practice law firm under the name Karpentier & Altinck, our roots trace back to a rich legacy. In 1951, Oei Tat Hway Widjojo, our late founder, joined the firm and assumed sole partnership in 1954 following the departure of its Dutch founders. Under his stewardship, the firm transitioned its focus exclusively to intellectual property matters, marking a pivotal shift from its origins as a general practitioner.
In 1983, Oei Tat Hway’s son, Yuswo Tirto, joined the family firm after earning his degree in electrical engineering from Delft University. Today, Oei Tat Hway’s legacy of excellence continues through his two sons, Yuswo Tirto Widjojo and George Widjojo, both of whom are leaders of their own respective firms.
