Bounced Cheque Lawyer in Lamphun — Criminal Action & Civil Claim to Recover the Cheque

A cheque the bank refuses to honour can be both a criminal offence under Thailand's cheque-offence law and a civil debt you can sue to recover. We usually pursue both tracks together — increasing pressure on the debtor to pay while protecting your right to recover as much as possible.

  • Civil claim to recover the cheque amount plus interest
  • Demand letters and settlement negotiation
  • Checking limitation periods and filing deadlines for cheque cases
  • Enforcement — asset tracing, seizure, and garnishment

Process

  1. 1Gather the cheque, the bank's dishonour slip, and proof of the underlying debt
  2. 2Issue a demand letter requiring payment within a set period
  3. 3File criminal and/or civil action per the right strategy
  4. 4Negotiate settlement or litigate through to judgment and enforcement

Documents to prepare

  • The original cheque and the bank's dishonour slip
  • The contract or proof of the debt the cheque was meant to pay
  • ID card / company affidavit
  • Any record of prior demands (if available)

Not always. It must meet the elements of the cheque-offence law — for example, a cheque issued to pay a real, enforceable debt. We check the facts first to decide whether a criminal case is viable or a civil claim is the better route.
Cheque cases have relatively short and important deadlines; waiting too long can forfeit the right to a criminal action. We recommend bringing the cheque and dishonour slip in promptly so we can protect your rights.
We trace assets and enforce against what we find — seizing property or garnishing accounts/wages — alongside criminal-case pressure to improve the odds of getting paid.
