Tilleke & Gibbins Hosts Directors’ Liability Seminar 2019

Subscribe to Updates

Directors of Thai companies are subject to a range of statutory duties and restrictions that affect every aspect of their role within a company, and directors who act outside that regulatory framework can risk serious repercussions. Because it is vital that companies stay up-to-date on the latest legal developments affecting those duties, Tilleke & Gibbins is proud to present a complimentary annual seminar on the topic.

For this year’s seminar, participants have the option of attending the session in either English or in Thai. The seminar will be held in English on September 25, 2019, and in Thai on September 26.

Tilleke & Gibbins’ specialists will lead discussions on the latest pertinent legal developments. Kobkit Thienpreecha, partner and deputy director of the firm’s corporate and commercial practice, will provide an overview of directors’ legal duties, which partner Chusert Supasitthumrong will follow with a presentation on directors’ civil and criminal liabilities. This will lead into a session on the litigation process, using real case studies provided by Michael Ramirez, consultant, on September 25, and by Chaiwat Keratisuthisathorn, attorney-at-law, on the next day. The program will end with a Q&A session to ensure that attendees can get answers to their own specific questions on the topic.
