Divorce Lawyer in Phang Nga — Uncontested, Contested, Property Division, and Child Custody

Divorce in Thailand has two paths — by mutual consent (registered at the district office) or by court petition (filed at the Juvenile and Family Court). We handle both, alongside related matters: division of matrimonial property, child custody, child support, and temporary protection orders.

  • Uncontested divorce — settlement deed and registration at the amphur
  • Contested divorce — Civil and Commercial Code grounds such as adultery or keeping another as spouse, serious misconduct, physical or mental cruelty, desertion, or voluntary separation for the statutory period
  • Division of matrimonial property (including overseas assets)
  • Child custody, support, and access rights
  • Protection orders in domestic-violence cases
  • Cross-border matters — visa implications, child nationality

About our team in Phang Nga

Phang Nga holds Khao Lak and the Similan Islands as international destinations, and carries former tin-mining land that was later turned over to development — producing title and land-use questions more complex than in an ordinary tourism province, alongside hotel and hospitality cases, labour matters, and foreign property holding.

Land that was once concession or mining ground usually carries conditions and restrictions attached to the land itself, which a single layer of sale documents will not reveal — only tracing back to the origin does. We complete that check before a decision is made, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Phang Nga and Takua Pa Provincial Courts.

Frequently asked questions — divorce lawyer in Phang Nga

3 questions answered

File a contested divorce at the Juvenile and Family Court on statutory grounds (e.g., adultery, cruelty, three-year separation, non-support). We help compile the evidence and prepare the petition.
Property acquired before marriage is 'personal property' and stays with the owner. Property acquired during marriage, plus earned income, is matrimonial and split equally. Proof of origin is critical — we help inventory the assets and gather supporting documentation.
Courts weigh both parents' earning capacity, the child's standard of living, and age-appropriate expenses. If circumstances change later (e.g., the child starts at a private school), a petition to increase support can be filed.
