Criminal Defense Lawyer for Foreigners in Saraburi — Arrest, Bail, Trial, Embassy Coordination
Being arrested in a foreign country compounds every difficulty: language barriers, an unfamiliar legal system, distance from family, embassy formalities, and immigration consequences that may matter more than the criminal outcome itself. We act for foreign nationals from first contact with the police through trial and any deportation aftermath — coordinating with your embassy, arranging bail where possible, briefing your family abroad, and defending the underlying charges with a strategy that accounts for what happens to your visa and re-entry rights after the case ends.

About our team in Saraburi
Saraburi is Thailand's cement and construction-materials base, and the land gateway every truck from the Northeast passes on the way into Bangkok. The legal work holds to three things: labor at the plants and quarries; contractor and materials-supply agreements, where the disputes are usually about progress payments and deductions; and land cases spanning farmland, project sites, and boundaries running up against concession areas.
Saraburi is within reach of both our Bangkok and Khon Kaen offices. On construction disputes we start by reading the progress-payment records and the full correspondence trail, because these cases turn on the order of the documents, not on testimony given afterwards.
