Litigation
& Dispute Resolution
Practice
Our team members have substantial experience in the legal profession including extensive commercial dispute resolution experience.
Kompass Law has a team of exceptionally experienced, reputable and dynamic trial lawyers and litigators providing nationwide litigation and dispute resolution services to our clients. Our Firm has seasoned proficiency and involvement in virtually many areas of commercial dispute resolution and litigation that affect the clients in Thailand. Our Dispute Resolution Practice Group handles all types of legal disputes, e.g. civil and criminal, regulatory and commercial, private and administrative, national and international.
Our multidimensional approach is seen most clearly in the way we litigate complex business and commercial disputes. In addition to bringing a solid legal foundation to the case, our lawyers understand the non-legal issues that underline the dispute and possess a comprehensive knowledge of the business, technical and economic issues involved. Each litigation team member is individually created, taking into account our client’s objectives, the attorney’s knowledge of the area in dispute and general litigation experience.
Before litigation, our attorneys are regularly called upon to counsel clients on ways to minimize potential liability exposure, determine other litigation risks or assess litigation strategies in light of relevant judicial trends. Our lawyers are also experienced in resolving disputes through arbitration, and other alternative and less formal means. In cases that reach the courts, Kompass Law’s Dispute Resolution Practice offers clients the size and experience necessary to conduct full-scale litigation – quickly if needed – to protect or advance their interests. The team represents the clients in Thai civil and criminal courts, the Intellectual Property and International Trade Court (IPIT Court), the Bankruptcy Court, Central Tax Court, Administrative Court and Labor Court.
Our clients are engaged in nearly every industry, including manufacturing, local and international trade, professional service, financial services, investment banking, real estate, information technology, insurance, energy, and electronics. Lawsuits in these industries may involve a broad range of issues, including commercial dispute, hostile business taking over, sale, contracts, employment issues, foreign business law related issue, administrative law related issues, negotiable instruments, real and personal property security, business torts and product liability, debt restructuring, business reorganization and bankruptcy as well as criminal case (business related).
As executive and other employment relationships become more sophisticated, as employment rights emerge, and as allegations of misconduct in the workplace multiply, businesses increasingly are relying upon outside legal counsel to minimize liabilities. Our litigation lawyers are experienced in handling a broad spectrum of labor and employment matters ranging from complex individual and class action litigation, unfair termination of employment, contract and tort cases arising from the workplace, and union-management activities. Our litigation lawyers represent clients in all levels of Thailand’s courts and before Thailand’s government agencies.
