What you can expect from Moradok Law

Dedicated Inheritance Expertise

We do not handle property transactions, business contracts, or criminal matters. Inheritance law is our only focus, and that specialisation shows in the depth of our advice.

Realistic Timelines

We give clear, honest estimates from the outset — no overpromising, no delays without explanation. Estate Review cases are typically completed within one to two weeks.

Sensitivity as Standard

We know these conversations often follow a bereavement. Our team is trained to support families through the emotional as well as the legal dimensions of inheritance matters.

Full English Service

All consultations, written summaries, and client communications are available in English. We are well-placed to assist expatriates and international families with Thai estate interests.

Transparent Pricing

All service fees are disclosed before any engagement begins. There are no hidden costs and no surprises mid-matter. Pricing starts from ฿1,540 for an estate review.

Named Solicitor Contact

Every client is assigned a named solicitor who handles their matter from beginning to end. You will always know who to speak with and will not be passed around the office.

In Detail

A closer look at what we offer

Expertise

Professional expertise in Thai inheritance law

The Thai Civil and Commercial Code governs inheritance in Thailand, and it operates differently from the legal frameworks of most other countries. Our solicitors have spent their careers in this area and understand both the statutory framework and the practical realities that families encounter when managing an estate.

  • Thorough knowledge of Thai probate proceedings
  • Experience with cross-border estate matters
  • Full membership of the Lawyers Council of Thailand

Process

A clear, structured process at every stage

Families who come to us are rarely familiar with how estate administration works. We take the time to explain each step before it happens, so there are no unwelcome surprises. Our written summaries after each consultation give clients a clear record of what has been discussed and what comes next.

  • Initial consultation to understand your situation
  • Written plain-language summary provided after review
  • Regular updates without needing to follow up

Service

Client service that takes the whole family into account

Estate matters often involve more than one family member, sometimes spread across different cities or countries. We make it straightforward to keep everyone informed, and we are accustomed to coordinating communication across different time zones when needed.

  • Remote consultations available for overseas family members
  • Written records for every discussion
  • No rush to make decisions

Value

Clearly priced services with nothing hidden

Legal fees in Thailand can be opaque. At Moradok Law, the fee for each service is set out clearly before any work begins. Families know exactly what they are paying and what is included. For more complex dispute matters, we assess the case individually and explain the likely range of costs before proceeding.

  • Fixed fees for estate review (฿1,540) and will assistance (฿2,860)
  • Dispute representation assessed individually from ฿4,160
  • No engagement until you have agreed to the terms

Outcomes

Families leave with clarity, not more questions

The measure of a good inheritance consultation is not a lengthy legal document — it is whether the family understands where they stand and what they can do next. We focus on practical outcomes: clear next steps, resolved questions, and a family that feels supported rather than overwhelmed.

  • Plain-language written overview included in estate review
  • Honest advice on likely outcomes, not just process
  • Families consistently report feeling more confident after their first meeting

How We Compare

Specialist practice vs. general legal services

Many general solicitors handle a wide range of matters. That breadth has value — but when it comes to inheritance, specialisation means a noticeably different experience.

What Sets Us Apart

Distinctive features of our practice

The "What to Bring" Note

Before every consultation, we send families a short, friendly note explaining what documents to bring — and reassuring them that not having everything ready is perfectly fine. It is a small thing, but families consistently mention it reduces their anxiety.

No Commitment First Consultation

You do not need to engage our services to speak with us. We are happy to have an initial conversation about your situation before any commitment is made, and we will always say if a simpler or different path would serve your family better.

English Written Summaries as Standard

Every estate review includes a written summary in plain English — not a legal document, but a clear record of what the estate contains, what steps are required, and who is responsible for what. Something families can read at home and refer back to.

Sensitive Handling of Dispute Matters

When family disagreements arise over an estate, we approach each matter with a view to preserving relationships where possible. We do not escalate unnecessarily, and we always advise on the full range of options — including those that avoid formal proceedings.
