The offering at Baker McKenzie LLP, which stands out for its ‘technical strength and client-first attitude’, is well-regarded for its abilities in an array of complex insurance matters. The team’s workload incorporates advising on regulatory and compliance issues, insurtech, data privacy, and reinsurance matters. Sorachon Boonsong's areas of specialism include advising multinational corporate insurer clients on their entry into or expansion within Thailand.
