Tilleke & Gibbins was named Thailand Firm of the Year at the Who’s Who Legal Awards 2021, marking the sixth consecutive year that Who’s Who Legal has recognized Tilleke & Gibbins’ Bangkok office as the leading full-service law practice in Thailand.

Asia Business Law Journal has published their annual list of the top 100 lawyers in Thailand— the result of extensive, in-depth market research including nominations and feedback from in-house counsel from around the world. Tilleke & Gibbins is proud to announce that the following five professionals from our Bangkok office are included in the prestigious list: Alan Adcock Darani Vachanavuttivong Pimvimol Vipamaneerut Thawat Damsa-ard Tiziana Sucharitkul The list is accompanied by an editorial analyzing the Thailand market, addressing some especially active practice areas in the country and the legal professionals handling the most complex and significant client work. For the second year in a row, this listing singles out Alan for recognition, quoting general counsel from Western Digital and Ferrero Asia-Pacific as saying that Alan is “less of a person from a ‘firm we hire’ and more of a ‘strategic partner’” and “very professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with.” To read the editorial and browse the full list of Thailand’s Top 100 Lawyers, please visit the Asia Business Law Journal  website.

Darani Vachanavuttivong, co-managing partner of Tilleke & Gibbins and managing director of the firm’s intellectual property practice, was awarded the global International Trademark Association (INTA) Membership Champion Award at the 2021 INTA Annual Meeting Virtual+, which took place on November 15–19. INTA grants the annual Membership Champion award in recognition of a member’s dedication to helping grow INTA membership, increase awareness of the association, and promote member benefits. The award is given to just one member from INTA’s entire global membership each year. In granting the award, INTA highlighted Darani’s passion for intellectual property law and her commitment to INTA, exemplified through her efforts as chair of the Asia-Pacific Sub-Committee of INTA’s Global Advisory Council and her continued efforts to promote collaboration with brand owners and government agencies. The award was presented in a special video message by Ms. Tiki Dare, president of INTA, during the hybrid global gathering.
