Lawyers Rates

[gabi]

hi all

I contacted a few lawyers from BKK by mail,to inquire about rates for registering a company and getting a visa and a work permit.

one is really cheap comparing to the market average (less than half a price from the others) what makes my wonder

Is this make sense to you ? could this be a fraud ? or just a really good deal ?

There are many factors that go into what one firm chooses to charge for a service versus what other firms charge. The most likely explanation for large differences in the costs is that you are not actually doing an "apples to apples" comparison. Some firms advertise the costs for services without including the charges you will need to pay for Thai Government fees and/or the taxes and/or the traveling costs. Some simply advertise the cost of doing part of a procedure (i.e. registering a name during a company registration process but not actually setting up a Thai company) but they do not advertise the total costs associated with doing the entire "A to Z" process. You should also ask the firms you are considering to provide you with itemized estimates along with the time frame for the process to be completed.

Our firm has a good reputation for doing thorough business set-ups, visas and work permits for our clients and our prices are fair. Make sure the firm you chose uses licensed attorneys and has a good history of producing satisfied clients.
