About our team in Phetchaburi
Phetchaburi contains Cha-am, a resort town and holiday-home market with a substantial foreign buyer base, alongside farming and coastal fishing. The recurring issues are foreign property holding — including structures that have become customary but carry real risk — sale and long-lease agreements, condominium juristic-person disputes, and family cases involving a foreign spouse.
A holding structure being common does not make it safe; several have points at which they are voidable or unenforceable once tested in court. We review the structure and the documents so the real exposure is visible before a decision is made. The team works in Thai, English, and Chinese, runs the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travels to appear at the Phetchaburi Provincial Court.
