Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Ratchaburi
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 Ratchaburi
Ratchaburi is a food and livestock base feeding the Bangkok market directly, with large pig and poultry farms, processing plants, a power station, and its traditional ceramics industry. The cases follow: manufacturer and distributor agreements, product standards and consumer liability, factory labour cases, environmental and odour complaints against farms, and industrial land disputes.
Environmental complaints typically begin with the local authority before they reach court, and the outcome at that stage weighs heavily on the case. Letting the first stage pass unanswered concedes ground before the hearing starts. We take the matter on from the agency stage, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Ratchaburi Provincial Court.
