We first opened a Bangkok office in 2013, under the name Nishimura & Asahi (Thailand) Co., Ltd. In 2019, we drastically expanded our capacity through an alliance with one of Thailand’s leading firms, SCL Group, to form SCL Nishimura & Asahi, one of Thailand’s largest law firms. We are one of the largest, well-resourced and most diverse international business law practices in Southeast Asia.

Our strong presence in the Thai legal market, as well as our expansive network and resources, allow us to meet the growing and varied demands for legal services throughout Southeast Asia.
