LITIGATION & DISPUTE ADVISORY

Litigation & Dispute Legal Advisory in Thailand

At Ake & Associates, we provide litigation and dispute legal advisory to foreign investors, international companies, and private clients involved in disputes in Thailand.

Our role is to help clients understand risk, evaluate options, and make informed decisions when disputes arise — whether through court proceedings, arbitration, or negotiated resolution.


When Clients Seek Our Advice

Clients typically engage us when:

  • A dispute is emerging and early strategic advice is required
  • Legal proceedings are being considered or have commenced
  • Cross-border or high-value disputes involve Thai law
  • Arbitration or alternative dispute resolution is appropriate
  • Enforcement of judgments or awards is required

Our advisory work begins well before formal proceedings and continues through resolution.


Our Advisory Approach

We approach litigation as a process of judgment, not merely advocacy.

Our advisers focus on:

  • Early assessment of facts, evidence, and legal position
  • Clear explanation of procedural options and likely outcomes
  • Strategic evaluation of risk, cost, and timing
  • Advising on settlement, mediation, or formal proceedings

We do not promote unnecessary litigation. Where disputes can be resolved effectively without trial, we advise accordingly.


Scope of Litigation & Dispute Advisory

Our dispute advisory work includes guidance on:

  • Civil and commercial litigation
  • Criminal proceedings involving business or personal matters
  • Arbitration and alternative dispute resolution
  • Interim measures and procedural strategy
  • Evidence preparation and litigation risk assessment
  • Enforcement of judgments and arbitral awards

We work closely with clients to ensure that dispute strategy is realistic, proportionate, and aligned with their broader interests.


Court and Arbitration Experience

Our advisers have extensive experience representing clients before Thai courts at all levels, as well as in arbitration proceedings.

This experience informs our advisory work — allowing us to assess disputes not only on legal theory, but on practical courtroom and procedural realities.


Advising International Clients

Disputes involving foreign parties often present additional complexity, including differences in legal systems, language, and expectations.

We advise international clients in clear English and ensure that they understand:

  • Procedural steps and timelines
  • Evidentiary requirements under Thai law
  • Risks specific to cross-border disputes

Our role is to provide clarity and stability in situations that are often uncertain.


Our Commitment

Disputes can carry significant financial, commercial, and personal consequences. Our commitment is to provide calm, independent, and well-reasoned legal advice to support effective resolution.
