Understanding Corporate & Commercial Advisory
Corporate & Commercial Advisory refers to legal and strategic support for businesses engaging in transactions, restructuring, and expansion. From the initial incorporation of a company to its eventual mergers or acquisitions, legal advisors play a key role in shaping the business’s success.
In Thailand, businesses must comply with the Civil and Commercial Code, the Securities and Exchange Act, and foreign investment laws. Our team at PDLegal Thailand ensures that companies operate within these frameworks while optimizing their legal and tax structures.
