About

Jan Hendrik (Henry) Jurgens

Strategic Legal & Business Advisor

YourBizConfidant is led by Jan Hendrik (Henry) Jurgens, a legal professional and cross-border advisor focusing on complex international matters.

The work combines legal reasoning, strategic thinking and practical coordination across jurisdictions, with a particular focus on Germany, Singapore and Indonesia. The approach is structured, solution-oriented and centred on identifying risks, developing workable solutions and supporting clients in navigating complex situations across legal and business environments.

A particular focus lies on supporting German-speaking investors in understanding and evaluating real estate-related investments in Indonesia before entering into long-term commitments — helping clients gain clarity and avoid common structural and contractual pitfalls.

Working languages: German, English and Indonesian.
