Phuket Legal Firm

Debt Recovery & Enforcement

We assist creditors and defendants with debt disputes, repayment arrangements, civil claims and judgment enforcement.

Defending a Debt Claim

Potential issues may include whether a debt exists, the amount claimed, prior payment, disputed signatures, limitation, set-off, standing and interest. A defence should be prepared consistently with the facts and procedural requirements.

Interest

The enforceability and calculation of interest depend on applicable law and the agreement. Do not assume that every contractual rate will necessarily be enforceable.

Enforcement

A successful judgment does not automatically mean payment. Lawful enforcement may be required against available assets or rights.

Cross-Border Matters

Foreign judgments and overseas debt issues require case-specific review; a foreign judgment should not automatically be assumed to be directly enforceable in Thailand.
