Practice Areas
Our Legal
Solutions
Three focused areas of legal support for businesses operating in Thailand. Each service is structured to be practically useful, not simply legally thorough.

How We Approach Every Matter
Before any Juriszen engagement begins in earnest, we take time to understand what you are trying to achieve. Legal work is only useful if it serves a genuine purpose — protecting an interest, clarifying an obligation, resolving a dispute, or enabling a transaction. Understanding your intent shapes how we frame the work.
Our approach across all three service areas follows the same basic sequence: listen, assess, scope, execute, and debrief. The debrief matters. We do not simply deliver documents — we walk clients through what they mean, what actions may follow, and what to watch for going forward.
Where a matter extends beyond our focus areas or where we believe another practitioner would serve the client better, we say so clearly. This is not common practice in our market, but it reflects how we think legal counsel should operate.
Initial Assessment
We listen to the situation and share a candid initial view of what is involved.
Written Scope
We prepare an engagement letter with defined scope, deliverables, and fees.
Execution with Review
Work is completed and reviewed internally before delivery to the client.
Debrief and Next Steps
We walk through the deliverable and any resulting actions or considerations.
Service I
Corporate Legal Counsel
฿35,000 / month
Ongoing legal support for businesses operating in Thailand, structured to function as an external legal department. This covers company formation and registration, regulatory compliance, contract review, employment matters, and corporate governance questions that arise in the normal course of business.
The engagement is particularly well-suited to organisations that need regular access to qualified legal guidance but do not require a full-time in-house counsel. Arrangements can be structured as monthly retainers or on a project basis, depending on your business's working style and requirements.
What Is Covered
- Company formation and DBD registration support
- Foreign Business Act compliance and BOI liaison
- Corporate governance documentation
- Employment law guidance and documentation
- Regulatory correspondence and advisory queries
- Annual compliance review
Typical Timeline
Retainer engagements begin with an onboarding session — typically 60 to 90 minutes — in which we review your business structure, existing documentation, and any known legal concerns. The first month focuses on establishing a baseline understanding of your situation.
Service II
Turnaround
Standard turnaround is 5 to 10 business days, depending on document length and complexity. Where timing is a particular concern, please mention this at the outset so we can advise on what may be possible.
Contract Drafting & Review
฿18,000 per project
Professional preparation and examination of business contracts, service agreements, partnership documents, employment contracts, and vendor arrangements. Each document is reviewed for legal soundness, clarity of terms, appropriate risk allocation, and alignment with Thai commercial law.
A plain-language summary is included with every review — covering key obligations, risk areas, and points we recommend discussing before execution. This makes complex documents accessible to non-legal decision-makers in your organisation.
Document Types Covered
- Service and consulting agreements
- Partnership and joint venture documents
- Employment and contractor agreements
- Vendor and supplier arrangements
- Non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements
- Distribution and agency contracts
Service III
Dispute Resolution Support
฿42,000 per matter
Guidance through commercial disagreements, seeking resolution through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration before formal litigation becomes necessary. The approach favours constructive dialogue and practical outcomes over adversarial positioning.
Each case begins with an honest assessment of the situation, including a candid discussion of realistic outcomes and the considerations involved at each stage. Engagement terms are defined at the outset with clear scope parameters.
Services Within This Area
- Situation assessment and strategic options review
- Demand letter preparation and correspondence
- Mediation representation and preparation
- Arbitration support and documentation
- Settlement negotiation and agreement drafting
- Post-resolution compliance guidance
Our Approach to Disputes
We do not enter a dispute matter with a predetermined strategy. Each situation is assessed on its specific facts, the relationship context, and the client's underlying objectives. Sometimes the most sensible path is a well-crafted letter. Sometimes it requires formal mediation. We aim to help clients see that range clearly.

Standards
Across All Our Services
Client Confidentiality
All client matters are handled under strict confidentiality. Files are maintained on encrypted systems. We comply with Thailand's PDPA.
Conflict Screening
Every new matter is screened for potential conflicts of interest before engagement. Any concerns are disclosed and discussed openly.
Peer Review
No lawyer signs off on their own work without internal review. This applies to all documents, regardless of scope or size.
Proactive Communication
Clients are informed of meaningful developments. We do not wait for clients to follow up before providing progress updates.
Written Engagements
Every engagement is formally scoped in writing before work begins. Scope changes are documented before additional work proceeds.
Current Legal Knowledge
Thai law evolves. The Juriszen team maintains current knowledge through continuing legal education and regular professional participation.
