Blumenthal Richter Sumet & Schuler (BRS&S) has once again been recognized in Chambers Global 2026 for its Corporate/Mergers & Acquisitions practice, reflecting the firm’s sustained strength in cross-border transactions and foreign direct investment into Thailand.
The firm’s continued inclusion in both guides highlights its established track record in advising international investors, multinational corporations, and regional businesses on complex acquisitions, joint ventures, restructurings, and strategic market entry projects. With Thailand remaining a key destination for foreign investment in Southeast Asia, BRS&S continues to play a central role in facilitating inbound transactions across a range of sectors.
The Corporate/M&A team, led by Senior Partner Andreas Richter together with Partners Stefan Riedl and Ekkarat Ritthiplang, combines deep local regulatory knowledge with international perspectives. The team is particularly recognized for its ability to guide clients through the structural, regulatory, and commercial aspects of cross-border investments, ensuring transactions are executed efficiently while meeting Thailand’s evolving legal requirements.
A key pillar of the firm’s international platform is its established China Practice, co-led by Zhe Che, a Chinese-licensed lawyer and supported by seasoned Thai corporate lawyers. The China Practice advises Chinese enterprises and investors on investments and operations in Thailand, including acquisitions, joint ventures, regulatory structuring, and ongoing compliance matters. By integrating cross-border transactional expertise with a strong understanding of Chinese commercial practices and culture, BRS&S supports Chinese clients seeking strategic expansion into Thailand and the broader ASEAN region.
The firm’s dual recognition in Chambers Global and Chambers Asia-Pacific underscores its position as a leading advisor on international M&A and foreign investment matters. As cross-border activity continues to grow in sophistication, BRS&S remains committed to delivering commercially focused, internationally aligned legal solutions to clients operating in dynamic and complex markets.
