Family & Inheritance Law in Si Racha

Family and inheritance matters handled with discretion

Divorce, custody, Thai wills, probate and estate administration, and disputes over family assets — including succession for foreign heirs and the rules that apply when a foreigner inherits property in Thailand.

Family & Inheritance Law in Si Racha — About us

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.

  • Chonburi Provincial Court
  • Region 2 Labor Court
