Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Krabi

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 Krabi

Krabi is an international tourism province — hotels, resorts, and service businesses with substantial foreign investment and residency — while inland it remains large-scale palm and rubber. The recurring issues are beachfront land and contested title documents, hotel and service-business licensing, foreign holding structures, hospitality labour cases, and plantation disputes.

A good deal of southern beachfront land has a title history that must be traced back before purchase or investment, because the problem surfaces at the construction-permit or transfer stage. We trace the history first, every time. The team works in Thai, English, and Chinese, runs the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travels to appear at the Krabi Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — bankruptcy lawyer in Krabi

1 questions answered

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.
