Step-by-step guides to Thai legal procedures
Longer walk-throughs of the procedures our clients most often go through, grouped by practice area.
01
Business & Corporate Advisory
Business Legal Advisory
A lawyer you can call before you sign, hire, or terminate — not after the dispute has started.
Read moreCorporate Legal Advisory
Governance, shareholder arrangements and the corporate housekeeping that becomes expensive when it is neglected.
Read moreContracts & Commercial Agreements
Contracts written so that the obligations, the exits and the remedies are all clear before anyone needs them.
Read moreCompany Registration
Setting the company up correctly the first time — structure, shareholding and objectives that match what you actually intend to do.
Read moreLicensing & Permits
Identifying which licences a business actually needs — and dealing with the ones it is already operating without.

Read more02
Employment Law & HR Compliance

End-to-end employment advice for Thai employers, from the first hire through to the difficult exit.

Contracts that survive a Labour Court reading — clear on role, pay, confidentiality and how the relationship ends.
Read moreWorkplace Rules
The document most employers only read once they need it — drafted so that discipline and dismissal decisions are actually supportable.
Read moreTermination
Ending employment in a way that is lawful, documented, and defensible if it is later challenged.
Read moreSeverance & Final Payments
Calculating what is owed on exit — severance, notice, accrued leave and any special-case entitlements.
Read moreLabour Disputes
Representation before labour inspectors and the Labour Court, and negotiated settlements where those serve the client better.
Read moreHR Compliance
An audit of what HR is actually doing, measured against what the law requires — with a fix list, not a lecture.

Cross-Border Family Law
Cross-Border Family Law
Where one parent is foreign, one is Thai, and the family exists across two legal systems at once.
Read moreChild Legitimation
For unmarried fathers: the step that turns a biological relationship into a legal one. Without it, most parental rights do not exist.

Establishing — or disputing — paternity where it is contested, and dealing with what follows either way.

Parental power decided on the child’s welfare — with realistic advice about what a Thai court is likely to order.

Civil Litigation
Contract, property, tort and damages claims from first demand letter through to enforcement.
