Dewi Soeharto is a seasoned intellectual property lawyer with an illustrious career spanning over two decades. She serves as the Co-Head of AHP’s Intellectual Property (IP) practice group, bringing extensive expertise and strategic insights into intellectual property law in Indonesia.
Prior to joining AHP, Dewi worked at a prominent law firm in Jakarta and later founded her own firm, Dewi Soeharto Law Partnership (DSLP), in 1996. DSLP quickly rose to prominence as one of the most sought-after firms for intellectual property matters in Indonesia. It catered to a diverse clientele, including blue-chip companies, social institutions, and one of the world’s largest media corporations. In 2018, DSLP merged with AHP, where Dewi continues to deliver exceptional legal services and innovative solutions for clients.
Dewi’s extensive experience allows her to provide a full spectrum of intellectual property services, including legal advice and strategies related to copyrights, trademarks, patents, industrial designs, integrated circuit layout designs, and trade secrets. Both market leaders and emerging businesses rely on her guidance to navigate Indonesia's complex intellectual property landscape.
Beyond her traditional legal practice, Dewi is a visionary in promoting lesser-known aspects of intellectual property law in Indonesia, such as plant variety protection, geographical indications, and product design registration. She is passionate about advancing these areas to align with international standards and bolster innovation across industries.
Dewi holds an Intellectual Property Rights Consultant license issued by Indonesia’s Ministry of Law and Human Rights. She is also an active member of the Indonesian Intellectual Property Rights Consultant Association (AKHKI), where she previously served as Deputy Vice Chairman and Treasurer.
