Negotiation and demand letters
A formal demand from a Thai law firm often resolves unpaid invoices and contract issues without going further.
Dispute Resolution
Resolve disputes in Thailand quickly and on your terms
Unpaid invoices, broken contracts, shareholder or employee conflicts: we assess your position, try to settle first and go to arbitration or court when needed.
This is for you if
- A Thai customer or partner owes you money and does not pay
- A supplier, distributor or partner breached your contract
- You are in conflict with a shareholder or a former employee
- You received a demand letter, a claim or a court summons

Act early: the options narrow with time
Most business disputes in Thailand are settled faster and cheaper through a well-prepared negotiation or mediation. When they are not, Thai court proceedings are conducted in Thai, and arbitration can offer a private process in English.
We start by assessing your position, the evidence and the likely cost, then recommend the approach that protects your business and your relationships.
How we resolve disputes
Mediation
A voluntary process with a neutral mediator, including court-annexed mediation, to reach a settlement quickly.
Arbitration
Private and confidential, often faster than litigation. We act before Thailand's main arbitration centres and assist at the Singapore and Hong Kong international centres.
- Thai Arbitration Institute of the Office of the Judiciary
- Thai Arbitration Centre under the Ministry of Justice
- Arbitration Court Office of the Board of Trade of Thailand
Litigation
When a case goes to court, we assess liability and damages and represent you at every hearing, including the Labour Court and the Bankruptcy Court.

Frequently asked questions
Can I sue in English in Thailand?
No. Thai court proceedings are conducted in Thai, and foreign-language documents must be translated. Arbitration can take place in English if the contract provides for it.
How much does a dispute cost?
It depends on the amount at stake, the evidence and the route. After reviewing your file in writing, we give you an estimate for each stage before you decide.
