For small- and medium-sized businesses having $20 million USD gross revenues annually or less, international expansion appears to be out of reach and reserved for multinational corporations; however, that is not the case in this global economy. TDL provides tailor-made legal resources to help these small- and medium-sized companies lower barriers to entry, minimize transportation and import/export costs, and improve efficiency through better use of technology. Our Attorneys provide international legal services founded on local economic, political, social, and legal sensitivities in both the host and foreign countries – from law and business advice to local customs and cultures. In addition, a main competitive advantage is that our Attorneys speak many and/or multiple languages. TDL provides international legal services in:
- cross-border joint venture, partnership, or turn-key agreements
- international tax strategies for business operations
- organizational structuring, including multi-jurisdiction local and foreign parent-subsidiary companies
- opening franchises in a foreign country
- business entity formation
- drafting, negotiating, and reviewing agreements in English, Thai, Vietnamese, and Spanish
