By accessing this website or submitting an enquiry, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age, have the legal capacity to enter into binding agreements, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use this website.

Service Description

Sila Law provides legal services in Thailand relating to inheritance matters, including statutory distribution, document authentication, and disputed inheritance representation. Our services are available to individuals and families whose matters involve Thai law, or international matters where Thai legal assistance is required.

Services are provided subject to applicable Thai law and professional rules governing legal practice in Thailand. We reserve the right to decline any matter at our discretion, including where a conflict of interest exists or where we consider the matter falls outside our areas of practice.

06

Fees & Payment

Service fees are as stated on the website at the time of enquiry and are denominated in Thai Baht (฿). All fees are subject to applicable Thai taxes. The fees published are indicative starting prices; the fee applicable to a specific matter will be confirmed in the engagement letter following a review of the circumstances.

Service-Specific Terms

The following additional terms apply to our core service areas:

Statutory Inheritance Distribution Counsel

This service covers an analysis of applicable statutory rules and assistance with agreed distributions or formal procedural steps. It does not cover formal court proceedings, which are subject to separate terms if required.

Inheritance Document Authentication

This service covers review, coordination with relevant authorities, and preparation of authentication applications. Fees quoted do not include government filing fees or third-party charges, which are payable separately.

Disputed Inheritance Representation

This service covers formal procedural representation in inheritance disputes. We will advise at each stage on timelines, costs, and the range of possible outcomes. We cannot and do not provide assurances as to the outcome of any proceedings. Settlement opportunities will be discussed with the client as they arise.

Disclaimers

The content on this website is provided for general informational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. It does not create a solicitor-client relationship and should not be relied upon as a substitute for specific professional advice on your circumstances.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sila Law excludes liability for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of this website or reliance on its content, including loss of data, opportunity, or business.

Our liability in connection with a formal engagement is governed by the terms of the applicable engagement letter and applicable professional indemnity obligations. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded by law.

10

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sila Law and its staff from and against any claims, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal costs) arising from your breach of these Terms, your use of the website in a manner not authorised by these Terms, or any information you provide that is inaccurate or misleading.

11

Termination

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to this website at any time, without notice, in the event of a breach of these Terms or for any other reason at our discretion.

Termination of website access does not affect any formal engagement in progress, which continues to be governed by the applicable engagement letter. Provisions of these Terms that are intended to survive termination (including disclaimers and limitations of liability) shall continue to apply.

12

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand. Any dispute arising from your use of this website or from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Bangkok, Thailand.
