Three Generations
of Legal Legacy

Leovaldi Tirta & Partners is a law firm in Surabaya rooted in Indonesian heritage, three generations of family tradition, and a profound respect for justice as a sacred mandate.

The Tirta family has carried the legal calling across generations. The name Tirta — drawn from the Javanese tradition, meaning water — reflects the firm's philosophy: precise in movement, adaptive to context, and always seeking clarity. Leovaldi is the third generation to carry this calling, combining decades of inherited wisdom with modern legal expertise.

Born and built in Surabaya — Indonesia's Kota Pahlawan and its second-largest commercial center — LTP today serves both Indonesian enterprises and international clients from Singapore, Greater China, Taiwan, India, the Netherlands, France, and Italy.

Why Choose LTP

Principled. Precise.

04

Excellence

05

Why Choose LTP

Authority without accountability undermines trust.
