The firm was delighted to welcome Durham University student Ms Lavanya Dev-Kauffmann onto its Summer Internship Programme.
Lavanya, who is pursuing a Bachelor of Laws degree at the distinguished UK university, was a pleasure to get to know during her time with us last month.
With a diverse educational background spanning Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Europe, Lavanya was able to bring a global perspective to her assignments and to discussions with the firm’s legal personnel. Her prior experience in leadership roles in different legal-focused academic societies allowed her to settle in and contribute straight from the off.
As part of her internship, Lavanya gained exposure to intra-ASEAN cross-border transactions involving Thai companies, researched and prepared updates regarding recent changes to the law in Thailand, attended a knowledge sharing session with quantum experts from a corporate/cyber investigations unit, and helped our attorneys translate various Thai laws and regulations into the English language, among other activities.
Lavanya proved to be highly capable and motivated. She contributed effectively throughout her entire time with us and left a really positive impression on the whole IAS Advisory team. We look forward to seeing her again the next time she comes to Thailand. Thanks, Lavanya! Mr lttinant Suwanjutha co-founding partner
