Statements for professional services are rendered to clients monthly at standard hourly rates, unless otherwise agreed. Our fees include overtime secretarial services, word processing and other overheads except out-of-pocket expenses.

Out-of-pocket expenses are for the client's account and are payable in advance unless it is agreed to bill monthly.

Value added tax is added to all statements.

All statements must be paid promptly and not later than 30 days after the end of the month concerned.

The firm is prepared to enter into retainer agreements and other special arrangements appropriate to the work involved and to a particular client's needs. One of this firm's standard retainer agreements provides for a minimum monthly retainer plus reduced hourly rates.

Clients doing business in Thailand are required to withhold income tax at 3% of fees, as prescribed in Revenue Department Order No. Tor. Por. 19/2530 dated 22 October 1987.

Like other businesses, this firm has substantial cash demands that require the firm to borrow money if its accounts are not paid promptly. In the event that an account becomes delinquent, the firm employs the same prudent collection procedures used by other businesses to ensure that the majority of the firm's clients who do pay their bills promptly are not penalized for the additional costs attributable to delinquent bills.

We retain the right to cease performing legal services, and to terminate our representation of a client, for any reason consistent with the applicable ethical rules, including unanticipated conflicts of interest or delinquency or non-payment of legal fees and expenses incurred on your behalf.
