About our team in Yala
Yala is a rubber and fruit province whose Betong district is a major crossing into Malaysia — significant enough to have its own provincial court — and one of the four provinces where the court applies Islamic law on family and inheritance with a Dato Yutithum sitting. The caseload covers cross-border trade and travel, plantations and land, tourism business in Betong, and family and inheritance matters under Islamic principles.
Cases here require establishing at the outset whether general law or Islamic law governs, because the resulting shares and heirs differ substantially and the point is hard to correct later. We settle the status and the governing principles before acting, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Yala and Betong Provincial Courts.
