Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Ranong
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 Ranong
Ranong is a maritime crossing to Kawthaung in Myanmar and a fishing and cold-storage base with one of the country's highest reliance on migrant labour. The cases that arise are migrant labour and work permits, fisheries and vessel licensing, customs procedure and seized goods, seafood supply contracts, and debt recovery between operators on both sides.
Fishing and cold-storage operations can be inspected on labour, licensing, and customs at the same time, and answering one front at a time without the whole picture tends to produce statements that contradict each other. We align the entire response, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Ranong Provincial Court.
