Anonymous client feedback published in the rankings includes praise for Charunun Suksomboon, a partner in Tilleke & Gibbins’ Bangkok office, who is described as “prompt and her advice is always to the point and easy to understand”; Kobkit Thienpreecha, also a partner in Bangkok, who is named as being “simply one of the best in Thailand”; and David Mol, a consultant in Tilleke & Gibbins’ Phnom Penh office, who a client called “totally excellent.”
