Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Nan

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 Nan

Nan borders Laos at the Huai Kon crossing and has an unusually high proportion of forest and mountain. What comes through the door reflects that: land and cultivation-right disputes overlapping forest zones, administrative cases between residents and state agencies, agricultural-land inheritance, and contract work for a tourism sector that has grown quickly.

Land cases overlapping forest zones only become clear once title documents, possession history, and the agency's boundary lines are read together. We check all three before advising whether to sue, defend, or negotiate, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Nan Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — bankruptcy lawyer in Nan

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.
