PDLegal has strengthened its Thailand offering with the arrival of dispute resolution lawyer Korakod Jittimaporn as Counsel, alongside Sittichai Duangjumpa as Senior Associate, further expanding the firm’s growing real estate and hospitality practice.
Korakod brings significant contentious experience, having previously served in a number of roles at Thailand’s Office of the Attorney General before returning to private practice with one of Thailand’s leading law firms.
The firm has also recently hired Sittichai as Senior Associate, further expanding its capabilities in real estate and hospitality in response to increasing client demand. Mark joins the firm from a well-known regional law firm, where he worked on corporate and commercial matters and M&A, as well as complex real estate transactions.
Papon Charoenpao, Managing Partner, PDLegal Thailand said: “We are delighted to welcome Korakod and Mark to the firm. Korakod’s significant contentious experience, including her time in senior roles at Thailand’s Office of the Attorney General and in private practice, will further strengthen our disputes offering in the market. Mark’s arrival also adds valuable depth to our real estate and hospitality capabilities at a time of growing client demand, particularly given his experience advising on complex real estate transactions and advisory services.”
Peter Doraisamy, Group Managing Partner, noted: “We are seeing increasing demand in Thailand, and it is therefore a natural step for us to continue expanding our footprint in the country. Our ambition is to build a sizeable full-service law firm in Thailand, supported by the strength and reach of our regional network.”
