Somsak Chalermchai
Director · Bangkok Import Company
The marked-up distribution agreement they returned was detailed in a way I could actually follow. Each flagged clause came with a plain explanation — not just a redline. The revision session at the end answered questions before I had even formulated them. Nothing felt rushed, and I came away understanding what I had signed.

Marcus Llewellyn
Managing Director · UK Technology Group
The Cross-Border Counsel engagement walked our board through licensing requirements and treaty considerations in a structured way. The jurisdictional analysis gave us something concrete to act on. The monthly check-ins have been equally useful as our plans have evolved considerably since the main engagement concluded.

Apinya Pornprasertsuk
Founder · Consulting Firm, Chiang Mai
I had never engaged a formal legal advisory firm before and was uncertain what to expect. The initial consultation was more like a conversation than an interrogation — which put me at ease. The NDA review was thorough without being intimidating. I understood every clause when they were done with it.

Ratchanee Nopakun
CFO · Mid-size Manufacturing Company
The governance manual is a working document the board actually references, not something filed away. The compliance checklist was immediately practical. The engagement ran a few days beyond the stated six weeks, though the final output more than justified the additional time.

Jan Vermeer
Owner · Dutch-Thai Restaurant Group
The licensing roadmap laid out our options and the order to address them clearly. As a foreigner here, the legal landscape can feel opaque without someone who genuinely knows it. The ongoing check-ins mean I can raise questions as they arise rather than letting them pile up until the next formal session.

Noppawan Wattanaporn
Legal Manager · Property Development Firm
The review identified clauses our internal team had not flagged — provisions that would have created difficulty in a dispute. The explanatory notes made it straightforward to present findings to our board without translating legal language myself. We will be returning for our next major agreement.

SUCCESS STORIES
Engagement Outcomes in Detail
Case Study 01 — Foreign Entity Structuring in Thailand
THE SITUATION
A Singapore-registered technology company was exploring expansion into Thailand and needed clarity on legal structures under the Foreign Business Act and how bilateral tax treaty provisions might affect their operational setup.
THE APPROACH
Tham Sakdi assessed applicable treaty provisions, BOI incentive categories, and FBA exemption paths, producing a detailed licensing roadmap covering the preferred structure and steps required for compliant Thai operations.
THE OUTCOME
The company established a Thai subsidiary within the recommended structure. Investors' advisers conducted due diligence against the analysis report without requesting significant revisions. Ongoing check-ins supported subsequent regulatory filing requirements.
"The roadmap gave us a clear sequence. We knew what to do and in what order — which made the whole process far less daunting."
Case Study 02 — Governance Framework for Investment Readiness
THE SITUATION
A growing Thai family business was preparing to accept external investors for the first time. Existing governance arrangements — largely informal — were unsuitable for the scrutiny an investment round would require.
THE APPROACH
Following a review and consultations with the founding directors, a comprehensive governance manual was drafted covering board composition, voting procedures, conflict of interest protocols, and a compliance checklist aligned with Thai company law.
THE OUTCOME
The manual was adopted before the investment process began. The investors' legal team conducted due diligence without requesting significant changes. The investment round proceeded on schedule.
"Our investors' advisers commented positively on the governance documentation. That outcome would not have been possible without Tham Sakdi's work."
Case Study 03 — Partnership Agreement Review
THE SITUATION
A Bangkok logistics company received a partnership agreement drafted entirely by the counterparty. Several clauses concerning liability allocation and dispute resolution could not be adequately assessed by the client's internal team.
THE APPROACH
Tham Sakdi conducted a clause-by-clause review, flagging provisions that placed disproportionate liability on the client and suggesting revised language. A revision session agreed a negotiating position for each flagged clause.
THE OUTCOME
The counterparty accepted the majority of revisions, including the modified liability clause. The agreement was signed within three weeks of the initial review engagement commencing.
"We went into those negotiations knowing exactly where we stood and why. That confidence came directly from the review process."
