Fraud Lawyer in Trat — Recover Funds from Scams, Mule Accounts & Online Fraud
Fraud victims should preserve evidence at the earliest opportunity — bank transfer slips, chat logs, and the recipient account details. Fraud is a criminal offence under Thailand's Penal Code, with online fraud also subject to the Computer-Related Crimes Act. Our team pursues both the criminal track (police complaint, investigation, prosecution) and the parallel civil track (recovery and asset attachment).

About our team in Trat
Trat borders Cambodia at the Hat Lek crossing and contains Ko Chang, a tourism centre with a substantial foreign operator and resident population. The caseload covers cross-border trade and debt, fisheries and migrant labour, island lease and landholding arrangements, accommodation licensing, and family cases involving a foreign spouse.
Island businesses often run on holding structures and leases inherited from previous operators and never tested in court; the weak points appear only on transfer or when a dispute starts. We review the structure so the exposure is visible first, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Trat Provincial Court.
