Wills & Estate Planning in Chiang Mai
Practical Thai estate planning for long-term residents, international couples, property owners and families with beneficiaries overseas.
Connect the Thai will to the assets and family circumstances

How Walailak Law Firm can assist
The precise scope is confirmed after conflicts, documents, objectives and urgency are reviewed.
Typical work

Cross-border estates need clearly divided advice
A Thai will can be prepared around assets and rights in Thailand, but overseas assets may require advice in the country where they are located. The documents should be coordinated carefully so that one plan does not unintentionally revoke or contradict another.
