About our team in Lampang

Lampang is the North's largest ceramics-manufacturing base and the site of the Mae Moh power plant and lignite mine. That economic structure drives the legal work here: factory labour cases, contractor and procurement disputes, environmental-impact and expropriation matters, and land disputes around the industrial zones.

We have handled labour and factory matters for employers for over 40 years — work rules, termination, and defending cases brought by large groups of employees at once. The team runs the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch and travels to appear at the Lampang Provincial Court and the Region 5 Labor Court as scheduled.

Frequently asked questions — traffic accident lawyer in Lampang

3 questions answered

DUI causing injury triggers both the Land Traffic Act and the Penal Code, carrying penalties of imprisonment and fines according to the severity of the outcome. Prompt restitution to the victim and a guilty plea are mitigating factors the court typically considers. We help negotiate settlement and prepare mitigation submissions.
Compulsory insurance (under the Road Accident Victims Protection Act) covers personal-injury losses up to a statutory cap and pays out immediately. Voluntary insurance covers everything else (vehicle repair, losses above the statutory cap). Victims typically claim from the at-fault vehicle's compulsory policy first, then the excess from the at-fault driver's voluntary policy.
In hit-and-run cases, the Road Victims Compensation Fund pays initial medical and compensation amounts in the at-fault driver's place. Victims apply through the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC), while the police continue searching for the driver. We handle both tracks in parallel.
