About our team in Phayao
Phayao is an agricultural province with the Ban Huak crossing into Laos and, in the University of Phayao, a concentration of working-age residents and rental tenants. The legal work mixes accordingly: farm-household land and inheritance, agricultural debt and enforcement, lease and property matters around the town, and general criminal defence.
Farm-household land and inheritance disputes are usually entangled with family relationships; rushing to file without sequencing the steps tends to cost both the case and the relationship. We set the approach — negotiate or litigate — at the outset, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Phayao Provincial Court.
