About our team in Trang

Trang is a rubber and oil-palm province with Kantang port as its Andaman outlet and a steadily growing island-tourism sector. The cases are rubber-plantation land and inheritance, crop purchase contracts and trade debt, labour matters at rubber-processing plants, transport and port work, and accommodation licensing in the tourism areas.

Rubber-plantation disputes usually concern boundaries and possession passed down over generations without a fresh survey. Framing such a case wrongly at the outset loses it even where the facts favour you. We check the boundary and the documents before setting the approach, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Trang Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — traffic accident lawyer in Trang

3 questions answered

DUI causing injury triggers both the Land Traffic Act and the Penal Code, carrying penalties of imprisonment and fines according to the severity of the outcome. Prompt restitution to the victim and a guilty plea are mitigating factors the court typically considers. We help negotiate settlement and prepare mitigation submissions.

Compulsory insurance (under the Road Accident Victims Protection Act) covers personal-injury losses up to a statutory cap and pays out immediately. Voluntary insurance covers everything else (vehicle repair, losses above the statutory cap). Victims typically claim from the at-fault vehicle's compulsory policy first, then the excess from the at-fault driver's voluntary policy.

In hit-and-run cases, the Road Victims Compensation Fund pays initial medical and compensation amounts in the at-fault driver's place. Victims apply through the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC), while the police continue searching for the driver. We handle both tracks in parallel.
