Legal documents are drafted accessibly. We explain each clause until you feel comfortable, not pressured.

There is no pressure to commit. An initial consultation allows us to understand your situation and explain how we might assist — at a pace that suits you.
Request a ConsultationCommon Questions
Straightforward answers to questions we hear often.
Do you handle matters involving foreign nationals?
Yes. A significant portion of our work involves couples where one or both parties are non-Thai residents. We are attentive to the additional layers this introduces, including overseas asset documentation and considerations under Thai civil and commercial law.
How long does a pre-marital agreement typically take?
Most pre-marital agreements are drafted and finalised within two to three weeks, depending on the complexity of assets and how many rounds of review each party requires. We schedule conversations at intervals that feel comfortable, not rushed.
Is mediation appropriate for our situation?
Mediation works well when both parties are willing to engage in good faith, even if they disagree on some matters. It tends to produce outcomes both people can live with, and it avoids the length and expense of contested proceedings. We can discuss your situation in an initial consultation before recommending any path.
What does the Full Divorce Mandate include?
The mandate covers filing with the relevant Thai court or administrative office, property allocation under Thai law, parental arrangements, and any cross-border considerations. You are guided by the same advocate throughout, with regular planning conversations at each stage.
Are your fees fixed or variable?
The fees listed on this site represent the standard engagement cost for each service. In cases involving significant complexity — for example, contested international assets — we discuss any adjustment with you clearly before proceeding. There are no undisclosed charges.
How is my personal information kept private?
All information shared with us is held in strict confidence, consistent with Thai legal professional obligations. We do not share case details or personal data with any third party without your explicit consent, and all documents are stored securely.
