About our team in Sukhothai
Sukhothai runs on two legs — cultural tourism and rice-and-sugarcane farming on the Yom floodplain. The legal work follows: farm-household land and inheritance, debt and enforcement, contracts for accommodation and retail businesses around the historical park, and land-use restrictions inside heritage zones.
Heritage-zone land restrictions are usually discovered only after a stop order has issued, which is far harder to unwind than checking before investing. We check restrictions and permits first, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Sukhothai and Sawankhalok Provincial Courts.
