Bankruptcy & Business Rehabilitation Lawyer in Si Racha

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 Si Racha

Si Racha hosts Thailand's largest Japanese community outside Bangkok and the Pinthong and Saha Group industrial estates. Legal work here is factory work: employment contracts and work rules that have to cover Thai staff and foreign management alike, sub-contracting and automotive supply-chain agreements, work permits and visas for foreign staff, and the leases and condominium purchases of families posted here for years at a time.

We cover the Eastern seaboard from our Bangkok branch — meeting clients at the plant and appearing regularly at the Chonburi Provincial Court. We work in Thai, English and Chinese, which suits factories where management and HR do not share a first language.

Frequently asked questions — bankruptcy lawyer in Si Racha

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.
