Corporate and M&A

VA Partners provides strategic, transaction-focused legal and economic advisory services that combine commercial insight with regulatory precision. Our Corporate and M&A practice supports clients through every stage of the transaction lifecycle — from deal structuring and due diligence to execution, clearance, and post-merger integration.

We advise both domestic and international clients on complex mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, and corporate reorganisations. Our approach integrates corporate law, competition regulation, and economic valuation to deliver solutions that are analytically rigorous and commercially practical. By aligning deal strategy with regulatory requirements, we help clients achieve compliant, efficient, and value-maximising outcomes.

Our practice has been involved in several of Thailand’s most prominent transactions across healthcare, telecoms, retail, energy, and emerging sectors, including mergers collectively valued at over THB 800 billion. VA Partners combines transactional experience with multidisciplinary depth to guide clients through evolving regulatory landscapes with confidence.
