Three Areas of Focused Legal Service
Each of Juristel's services is designed around the specific legal needs of businesses operating in Thailand — structured, scoped, and priced with transparency.
← HomeHow Juristel Approaches Each Engagement
Every matter begins with a clear-eyed assessment of what is needed. From there, the engagement follows a structured process — defined scope, agreed timeline, and deliverables that are built to be useful rather than impressive in volume. Juristel does not operate with open-ended mandates; each engagement has a defined purpose and a clear endpoint.
Initial Consultation
A focused conversation to understand the matter and determine whether and how Juristel can assist.
Document Review
Structured collection and analysis of relevant documentation, filings, and contracts.
Legal Analysis
Assessment against current Thai legislation and regulatory requirements, checked internally before delivery.
Findings & Recommendations
Delivery of a clear, prioritised report or advisory — written to inform decisions, not to demonstrate legal complexity.
Small Business Legal Health Review
A structured assessment of a small business's legal standing across key areas — corporate filings, contract hygiene, employment compliance, and regulatory adherence. The review is designed to identify areas where documentation may be outdated, incomplete, or misaligned with current Thai regulations.
The process involves an initial consultation, document collection, and a findings presentation. Suitable for businesses that have been operating for two or more years and have not recently engaged legal counsel.
What is Covered
- Corporate filings and statutory compliance review
- Contract documentation audit (supplier, client, partner)
- Employment contract and HR policy assessment
- Regulatory adherence against current Thai requirements
- Prioritised findings report with actionable recommendations
Employment Law Advisory
A specialized service helping employers understand and comply with Thai labor laws and regulations. The service is structured to provide practical, actionable guidance rather than abstract legal analysis.
Engagements can be project-based for specific matters or arranged as ongoing advisory retainers for companies with regular employment law needs.
Service Scope
- Employment contract drafting and review
- Workplace policy development and compliance review
- Termination procedures and severance calculations
- Labour dispute proceedings representation
- Ongoing retainer options for recurring needs
Cross-Border Business Legal Support
A comprehensive legal service for businesses and individuals with interests spanning multiple jurisdictions, with a focus on Thailand's legal requirements. Each engagement is tailored to the specific countries and structures involved.
Particularly relevant for foreign investors establishing operations in Thailand and Thai businesses expanding abroad. Includes coordination with affiliated counsel in other jurisdictions where necessary.
Areas Covered
- Foreign business licensing (FBA compliance)
- Treaty of Amity considerations for US entities
- Joint venture structuring and documentation
- BOI promotion applications and compliance
- Affiliated counsel coordination across jurisdictions
