Rajah & Tann Thailand (RT), a member of Rajah & Tann Asia, has appointed Melisa Uremovic and Supawat Srirungruang as co-managing partners, following the decade-long leadership of Surasak Vajasit.
“[The co-managing partners’] appointments come at an exciting time for RT and Thailand, as the country appears poised for significant transformation and growth,” said RT.
Vajasit steps down from his role as managing partner, but will remain at the firm as the newly appointed chairman and senior partner. He will focus on dispute resolution, international arbitration, joint venture disputes, rehabilitation and bankruptcy, and banking and finance.
Uremovic was previously a deputy managing partner and has been with the firm for more than a decade. She has more than 20 years of experience in Thailand, specialising in areas such as foreign ownership issues, anti-bribery, competition and data protection.
Srirungruang has been working with Rajah & Tann since 2014, focusing on areas including project development, telecommunications and technology, regulatory compliance, dispute resolution and international trade laws.
When asked about their primary strategies, the co-managing partners told Asia Business Law Journal: “We will continue to prioritise a balanced, inclusive, and people-first work environment, as well as building stronger relationships with valued clients, driving innovations, enhancing technological capabilities, and expanding services in key strategic areas.”
