Our Advantages
What Makes Working with
Pranom Legal Different
Not every family law practice approaches matters the same way. Here is what we believe sets the work we do apart from what you might encounter elsewhere.

Six Reasons Clients Choose Us
Qualified, Practising Solicitors
Registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand, with genuine practise experience in family matters — not junior staff or generalists.
International Focus
A significant part of our work involves international couples and expatriate families — cross-border matters are a routine part of our practice, not an exception.
Transparent Pricing
Each service has a clear fee. For litigation, costs and prospects are discussed openly before proceedings are commenced — and revisited as the matter develops.
Strict Confidentiality
Every enquiry and every matter is treated with full confidentiality from the first point of contact. This is a professional obligation we take seriously.
Plain, Unhurried Communication
We take time to explain matters clearly. Clients leave each appointment understanding their position — not more uncertain than when they arrived.
Settlement-Minded Representation
Even in litigation, we watch for settlement opportunities and discuss them thoughtfully. Reaching a fair outcome efficiently is always the priority.
Professional Expertise in Family Law
Family law in Thailand is a distinct discipline. The Thai Civil and Commercial Code governs marriage, property, and parental matters in ways that differ substantially from the legal frameworks of many countries where our international clients originate.
Our practitioners have spent their careers in this area of law — not generalists who handle family matters alongside commercial work, but solicitors whose daily practice is shaped by these questions. That depth of focus makes a practical difference in the quality and precision of the advice offered.
- Registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand
- Focused exclusively on family law matters
- Practising experience in Chiang Mai courts
- Understanding of cross-jurisdictional implications
A Service Built Around the Client
We do not operate as a high-volume practice where matters are processed quickly and clients rarely speak to the same person twice. At Pranom Legal, each client has a named solicitor who knows their matter and is the consistent point of contact throughout.
Initial meetings are conducted without time pressure. Questions are welcomed. Advice is given in language that is accessible, not in professional jargon that obscures rather than clarifies.
- Dedicated solicitor for each matter
- Appointments that run at a considered pace
- English-language advice throughout
- Enquiries acknowledged within one working day
Clear, Fair Fees
Our three services are priced at ฿3,000, ฿5,800, and ฿7,500 respectively. There are no hidden additions to these figures for the defined scope of each service.
For litigation matters, where scope can vary as proceedings develop, we discuss costs and what they reflect in detail before starting, and we return to that conversation as circumstances change. Clients always know what they are spending and why.
- Fees stated clearly before any work begins
- Thai Baht pricing — no currency uncertainty
- Costs and prospects discussed openly in litigation
- No surprise charges within agreed service scope

What Sets Us Apart
Distinctive Features of Our Practice
Full-Scope International Marriage Support
Our pre-marriage counsel appointment addresses not just Thai legal requirements, but the recognition of the marriage in the partner's home jurisdiction, residency implications, and property considerations. It is a planning conversation, not a form-completion service.
Mediation Agreements Drafted by Us
Many practices support clients through mediation sessions but leave agreement drafting to others. We draft the resulting agreements ourselves, ensuring they are precise, complete, and durable across jurisdictions where relevant.
Open to Initial Enquiries Without Commitment
We are happy to receive an initial enquiry and discuss whether and how we can assist, before any engagement is formalised. There is no pressure to proceed — understanding the situation comes first.
Litigation as a Last Resort, Not a Default
We approach court proceedings as a step taken when other avenues have been considered and found insufficient. Where settlement or mediation remain genuinely possible, we discuss those paths — even once litigation has begun.
