Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Phrae
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 Phrae
Phrae has long been the North's teak and wooden-furniture centre and sits on the transport corridor linking the upper North to the Central plain. The timber trade creates its own issues — permits, proof of source, and agency inspections — alongside the sale-contract, trade-debt, land, and inheritance work typical of a mid-sized province.
Timber and permit cases usually carry a criminal and an administrative dimension at the same time, and the two have to be separated from the start. We frame the case before acting, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Phrae Provincial Court as scheduled.
