TL;DR:The standard flow is intake and engagement, fact-gathering, legal analysis, strategy selection, execution (negotiation or litigation), then resolution and close-out with ongoing client updates.
Legal work follows a clear, repeatable sequence clients should expect. Start with intake and conflicts check, then sign an engagement letter that defines scope, fees and confidentiality. Open the file and gather facts and documents (contracts, correspondence, witness statements), then perform legal research and analysis to identify claims, defenses and applicable Thai law. Present advised options and a recommended strategy (negotiation, mediation, regulatory filing or court). Execute the chosen path: draft pleadings or agreements, file required documents with courts or agencies, and run negotiations or mediation. If litigation proceeds, complete discovery, hearings and trial preparation. After resolution, implement the settlement or judgment, handle enforcement, return originals and close the file with a final bill and archived records. Maintain regular client updates and cost checkpoints throughout. For Thailand-specific professional and engagement rules consult the Ministry of Justice and the Lawyers Council/Thai Bar Association (moj.go.th; thaibar.org).
