Pornpimol C.
Bangkok · May 2026
I reached out to Tawan Law about three weeks after losing my father, when I still had not processed everything. They did not push me to begin immediately — we had one conversation, and then I had time to think. When I was ready, they guided me through the administration step by step. I always knew what was happening.
Estate Administration Help
Robert H.
British expat, Bangkok · April 2026
My mother owned property in Thailand and I had no idea how the succession worked here. The team explained everything clearly in English, without making me feel like I should already know. The written summary after the consultation was genuinely helpful — I shared it with my sister in the UK and it answered most of her questions too.
Inheritance Reflection Consultation
Supannika N.
Chiang Mai · May 2026
We had a complicated family situation and I was worried about how the lawyers would handle it. They were straightforward without being cold about it. The process took about eight weeks, which was longer than I hoped, but I was told at the start that was possible. No surprises, just steady progress.
Estate Administration Help
Tanawat K.
Bangkok · April 2026
We had a dispute between family members about the will. Tawan Law took on the full case and managed it very carefully. They were honest with us about what was likely and unlikely, which I appreciated. It took several months but we reached a resolution and I felt supported throughout. The closing report was thorough.

Marie-Louise D.
French national, Bangkok · May 2026
My husband passed away with assets in both France and Thailand. Tawan Law was very clear about where their scope ended and where I would need help elsewhere. That honesty helped me organise things properly. The Thai side was handled with real care and I received updates in English throughout.

Nonthaburi · March 2026
I went initially just for the consultation and was not sure if I needed more. The written summary I received afterwards helped me decide that yes, I did need help with administration. I came back and they continued from where we left off. The fee for each stage was clear and fair.
Consultation, then Administration Help
How certain matters unfolded
Circumstances have been generalised to protect client privacy.
Case Study A
Challenge
A family of three siblings could not agree on whether a handwritten note constituted a valid will under Thai law, causing a stalemate in the estate.
What we did
We assessed the document against the formal requirements of Thai succession law, advised on its likely legal weight, and filed the relevant application with the court.
Outcome
The court ruled on the document's validity within four months. The family received a clear legal position and could proceed with distribution accordingly.
Case Study B
Challenge
A foreign national had died leaving a condominium and a bank account in Thailand. The heirs, based in Europe, needed the Thai assets administered without being present.
What we did
We prepared the necessary documentation, liaised with the Land Department for the property transfer, and coordinated with the relevant embassy for authentication of foreign documents.
Outcome
Both assets were successfully transferred to the heirs remotely over approximately ten weeks. The family received updates at each stage by email.
Case Study C
Challenge
A client came for an initial consultation uncertain whether to proceed with a claim. They had concerns about cost and whether the matter was worth pursuing.
What we did
We provided an honest assessment of the strengths and practical difficulties of the position in the consultation summary, without encouraging a decision in either direction.
Outcome
The client decided not to pursue the matter, which — given the realistic prospects we outlined — was probably the right decision for them. They wrote to thank us for the clarity.
