Administrative Law Attorney in Chai Nat — Suits Against Government Agencies

Administrative cases are disputes between private parties and state agencies or officials, heard by the Administrative Courts — a separate system from the Courts of Justice. They span unlawful administrative orders, agency omissions, state-land disputes, and civil-service disciplinary matters. Critically, administrative claims carry relatively short limitation periods that run from when the affected party knew or should have known of the cause. Counsel familiar with Administrative Court procedure helps file within the deadline and frame the case correctly from the outset.

About our team in Chai Nat

We handle land and inheritance disputes, business contracts, and general cases from our Bangkok branch.

Frequently asked questions — administrative law attorney in Chai Nat

1 questions answered

Administrative limitation periods are shorter than ordinary civil ones and vary by claim type. Petitions to revoke an administrative order generally must be filed within the statutory period running from when the claimant knew or should have known of the cause. Some categories — such as those protecting the public interest — may have no limitation period. Because the counting is intricate and missing it forfeits the right, consult a lawyer as soon as you receive a decision you disagree with, so the exact period that applies to your case can be confirmed under the Act on Establishment of and Procedure for Administrative Courts.
