Experiences shared by families we have worked with
Sarah W.
British expat, Bangkok
"I wasn't sure what I was looking for when I first contacted Baan Legal. I'd been going in circles for weeks. The first consultation was exactly what I needed — someone who listened without rushing me to a conclusion. The written summary they sent afterwards was really helpful to have."

Piyanan M.
Bangkok
"My former partner and I needed to put our parenting arrangement in writing. Neither of us wanted conflict — we just needed someone to help us get it down clearly. Nattaporn was calm and very thorough. The process took a bit longer than I expected, but that was really because we kept adjusting things, not because of the team."

James T.
Australian, Chiang Mai
"We did everything by video call — I'm based in Chiang Mai. It worked well. Somsri took her time explaining the agreement to us, which was exactly what we needed since neither of us had dealt with Thai family law before. The document itself was easy to read and understand."

Apinya R.

"What I appreciated most was that nobody pushed me. I'd heard from friends that some lawyers pressure you into decisions quickly. Baan Legal felt completely different. I took nearly three weeks between the first and second appointment and nobody chased me once."

Michael K.
German, Bangkok
"The parenting plan we put together with Nattaporn has been working well for both sides. It covers everything, and because we understood each section before signing, there hasn't been any confusion since. Good experience — the only thing I'd flag is that responses sometimes came late in the day, though they always came."

Thanyaporn S.
Bangkok
"We already had terms agreed — we just needed someone to put it in writing properly. The turnaround was quick and the document was clear. Lalita in the office was also very helpful with scheduling — she accommodated a Saturday appointment for us, which made a real difference."

Family journeys we were part of
These are composites of typical situations — shared with care to illustrate how our services work in practice.
Navigating separation from a distance
The Situation
A British client living in Phuket needed to understand her options around separation from a Thai spouse. She had children in international school and wasn't sure how Thai law applied to her situation.
How We Helped
We held two consultations by video over three weeks, at her pace. After the second session, she received a written overview of her options — clear, plain, and without pressure to act on any particular one.
Outcome
She felt sufficiently informed to make a decision about next steps — which she did several weeks later. The initial uncertainty had been replaced by a clearer understanding of the path ahead.
"I felt like I actually understood my situation for the first time."
A parenting plan both parents could accept
The Situation
A Thai-German couple with a seven-year-old needed to formalise arrangements after separating. Both were committed to their child's wellbeing but had different views on several practical matters.
How We Helped
We met each parent separately first, then guided three joint discussions over five weeks. We kept focus on the child's day-to-day needs and helped each parent articulate their concerns clearly and respectfully.
Outcome
A parenting plan both signed, covering living arrangements, school holidays, communication, and decision-making. Both parents reported feeling the process had been fair and that the document reflected what they'd actually agreed.
"Our daughter has stability. That's what we needed most."
Agreement put in writing, clearly
The Situation
A Thai couple had reached their own informal agreement about property and financial arrangements but wanted it formalised properly. They'd tried to write it themselves but weren't confident it would hold.
How We Helped
We reviewed their notes, asked clarifying questions, and drafted a formal agreement over two sessions. Each clause was explained in plain English before signing. Both parties had time to review and request changes.
Outcome
A signed, properly structured agreement that both understood completely. The couple said the process had actually helped clarify a few terms they'd been slightly vague about in their original notes.
"We signed it feeling settled. That was the whole point."
