Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Kanchanaburi

Bankruptcy and business rehabilitation fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Central Bankruptcy Court, governed by the Bankruptcy Act B.E. 2483 (as amended). The key distinction: bankruptcy collects and distributes an insolvent debtor's assets among creditors, while rehabilitation lets a still-viable business restructure its debts and keep trading under a court-approved plan. Our team acts for both creditors (claims and debt proof) and debtors (rehabilitation petitions, plan drafting, defence), weighing the option that best protects the client before any filing.

About our team in Kanchanaburi

Kanchanaburi borders Myanmar at the Phu Nam Ron crossing and combines sugar, mining, and River Kwai tourism. That structure produces several layers of dispute at once: migrant labour and work permits, contractor and transport agreements, environmental impact from mining and factories, and land disputes where holdings abut conservation areas.

Operations relying on large migrant workforces carry labour and criminal exposure at the same time, and getting the paperwork right at the outset costs far less than fixing it after an inspection. We advise on both prevention and litigation, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Kanchanaburi Provincial Court and the Region 7 Labor Court.

The main difference is the statutory minimum debt threshold for filing, which is not the same for individual and corporate debtors. The strategy differs too — a viable business is usually better served by rehabilitation than liquidation, while for individuals the focus is proving genuine insolvency. We check whether the filing conditions are met and pick the most cost-effective route, including checking the current statutory minimum debt threshold for your situation.
