PTB Business Consultants: Our Mission and Approach
PTB was established with the mission of offering a practical, results-driven alternative to traditional legal services. Rather than relying on costly and time-consuming litigation, PTB focuses on resolving disputes, overcoming immigration barriers, and handling complex civil matters in a way that gives clients more control and achieves quicker results.
At the heart of PTB’s operations is the belief that control is the key to success. By keeping cases out of the courts, where legal processes can stretch for months or even years, PTB ensures that clients maintain control over the outcome of their issues. Working behind the scenes, leveraging connections, and utilizing legal gray areas, when necessary, can deliver solutions that are fast, effective, and often overlooked by traditional legal professionals.
Three Key Areas of Expertise
PTB focuses on three core areas where its expertise is unmatched:
- Civil Dispute Resolution
PTB handles a wide variety of civil disputes, including contract issues, employment disputes, family matters, corporate problems, and tenant eviction cases. Tenant Eviction is a particular specialty, with PTB’s services saving clients a significant amount of time and money. What might take traditional legal firms months or even years, PTB resolves in an average of 25 days. - Immigration Blacklist Removal
PTB is a specialist in helping clients who have been blacklisted by immigration authorities in countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines. PTB has cultivated personal relationships with key officials in immigration, law enforcement, and government, enabling the firm to achieve an impressive 86% success rate in 2023, with expectations to reach 90% in 2024. - Spousal Visa Applications for Vietnamese Nationals
PTB is highly experienced in assisting Vietnamese nationals who are married to Australian or British citizens in obtaining spousal visas. With strong relationship connections in the Australian and UK Immigration Departments, PTB has earned a stellar reputation for securing visas efficiently and affordably.
Detailed Section 1: Civil Dispute Resolution
Civil disputes can be a nightmare for individuals and businesses alike. From contract disagreements to employment issues, these matters often escalate into costly legal battles that drain resources and take an emotional toll on all parties involved. At PTB, we believe there is a better way—one that keeps the matter out of court, giving clients the ability to maintain control over their disputes and achieve fast, satisfactory outcomes.
Contract Disputes
Contractual issues arise in nearly every sector of life, whether in business partnerships, employment agreements, or service contracts. Often, the first reaction is to turn to the courts when a breach occurs. However, litigation can be an exhausting and financially burdensome process. PTB steps in to resolve these disputes through negotiation, mediation, and arbitration—always seeking to keep the matter out of the court system.
Employment Disputes
Employment disputes can be particularly sensitive, as they involve not only legal matters but also relationships that impact the workplace environment. At PTB, we approach employment disputes with a balance of legal expertise and emotional intelligence, ensuring that both employers and employees can reach a solution that preserves dignity and respect while addressing the legal aspects at hand.
Tenant Eviction
One of PTB’s most sought-after services is its expertise in tenant eviction. In countries like the UK, Australia, and the USA, evicting tenants can be a time-consuming process fraught with legal hurdles. With traditional eviction procedures taking anywhere from months to years, PTB steps in to accelerate the process. Through an in-depth understanding of landlord-tenant laws and strategic legal maneuvers, Simon Price and his team can complete evictions in an average of 21 working days—always within the law but sometimes by bending it to fit our client’s needs.
Detailed Section 2: Immigration Blacklist Removal
Being blacklisted by immigration authorities can feel like a life-altering event, cutting off access to a country and disrupting personal or business plans. PTB specializes in helping clients remove their names from immigration blacklists in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines.
Causes of Blacklisting
People can be blacklisted for a variety of reasons, including visa overstays, legal infractions, undesirable behavior, and more. PTB takes the time to investigate the specifics of each client’s case and formulates a customized strategy to secure removal from the blacklist. The firm’s personal relationships with immigration authorities, police, and government officials in these countries provide a significant advantage, giving PTB unique access to decision-makers who can expedite the process.
The PTB Process
The process of removing a client from an immigration blacklist typically involves several steps, including gathering documentation, negotiating with officials, and addressing outstanding legal or financial obligations. PTB’s team works tirelessly to streamline this process and minimize delays, allowing clients to regain entry to the country as soon as possible. With a high success rate of 86% in 2023, PTB has become the go-to firm for individuals facing blacklisting in Southeast Asia.
Detailed Section 3: Spousal Visa Applications for Vietnamese Nationals
For Vietnamese nationals married to Australian citizens, the process of obtaining a spousal visa can be long and complicated. PTB has a proven track record of simplifying this process, offering a high success rate and affordable services.
Navigating the Visa Process
The Australian spousal visa application process involves numerous steps, including gathering documentation, proving the legitimacy of the marriage, undergoing health and character checks, and meeting financial criteria. PTB’s expertise in immigration law ensures that every application is meticulously prepared, increasing the likelihood of approval and avoiding costly delays.
Strong Relationships with Australian Immigration
PTB’s success in securing spousal visas is bolstered by Simon Price’s personal relationships with key figures in Australian immigration, including the Australian Ambassador to Vietnam and the Consulate General. These connections allow PTB to expedite the process and address any issues that may arise during the application.
