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.

About our team in Si Racha

Si Racha hosts Thailand's largest Japanese community outside Bangkok and the Pinthong and Saha Group industrial estates. Legal work here is factory work: employment contracts and work rules that have to cover Thai staff and foreign management alike, sub-contracting and automotive supply-chain agreements, work permits and visas for foreign staff, and the leases and condominium purchases of families posted here for years at a time.

We cover the Eastern seaboard from our Bangkok branch — meeting clients at the plant and appearing regularly at the Chonburi Provincial Court. We work in Thai, English and Chinese, which suits factories where management and HR do not share a first language.

Frequently asked questions — divorce lawyer in Si Racha

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.
