Why Sai Yai Law
What Makes Our Approach Different
We are not a large firm and that is intentional. Smaller means closer attention, less time waiting, and support that actually fits your situation.

What You Can Count On
These are not marketing points. They are the things our clients consistently tell us they valued most when working with us.
Qualified Practitioners
All of our lawyers hold full qualifications from the Lawyers Council of Thailand. You work with licensed professionals who know Thai family law in depth.
You Set the Pace
We never rush clients toward decisions. You move at a pace that feels right, with guidance available at each stage and no pressure to proceed before you are ready.
Clearly Stated Fees
Our service fees are presented clearly from the start — ฿1,500 for an initial consultation, ฿6,000 for parenting arrangements, ฿9,800 for representation. No unexpected additions.
Complete Discretion
Family matters require privacy. We handle all client information with professional confidentiality and take every measure to ensure your situation remains your own.
English & Thai Fluency
We serve both Thai nationals and international clients comfortably in English, making us particularly suited to expatriate families and cross-border family situations in Thailand.
Child-Centred Approach
When children are involved, their wellbeing leads our thinking. We aim for arrangements that are stable, fair, and in the genuine interest of the children — not just legally tidy.
Professional Expertise in Thai Family Law
Our practice focuses solely on family law matters under the Thai Civil and Commercial Code. This specialisation means our practitioners have handled a wide range of situations — from straightforward parenting discussions to complex formal proceedings — and bring that depth to every case.
- Familiar with Bangkok family court procedures
- Experience with international family situations and Thai law
- Ongoing professional development in family law updates
In Practice
"We stay close to one area of law so we can serve you better within it — rather than covering everything broadly."

Personal Service at Every Stage
When you work with Sai Yai Law you deal with the same person from your first conversation to the conclusion of your matter. There are no hand-offs to junior staff, no repeating yourself to someone new. The practitioner who listened to you at the start is the same one who supports you throughout.
Transparent, Reasonable Pricing
Legal fees in Bangkok can be difficult to predict. We believe that should not be the case for our clients. We tell you exactly what each service costs at the outset, and we do not add charges without discussing them with you first.
Starting from ฿1,500 for an initial family conversation, our fees are intended to be within reach — because access to calm, thoughtful legal advice should not depend on a large budget.

What Sets Us Apart
Things You Won't Find Everywhere
Emotionally Aware Practice
Our team understands that family legal matters are rarely just legal. We recognise the emotional side of every situation and bring that awareness into how we communicate and advise.
Mediation-Forward Mindset
Where possible, we look for ways to resolve matters through agreement rather than adversarial proceedings — which saves time, reduces cost, and is generally better for everyone involved.
Rooted in Bangkok
We are based in Pathum Wan and have specific familiarity with Bangkok family courts, local documentation processes, and the practical realities of family law in this city.
Clear Written Agreements
We document parenting and support arrangements in plain, readable language — not dense legal text. Agreements that both parties can actually read and understand tend to hold.
