In Their Own Words
Apinya Charoenwong
Bangkok — Will Preparation
I had been putting off writing a will for years, largely because I did not know where to start and found the whole subject uncomfortable. The first appointment with Khun Somchai changed that. He asked sensible questions, explained the process clearly, and made the matter feel manageable. The completed will was ready within two weeks and is now in their archive. I wish I had done this sooner.

Thomas Reinhardt
Expatriate, Bangkok — Cross-Border
I hold property in Germany and Thailand, with family members in both countries. Coordinating this properly was something I had been told was complicated, and frankly it is — but Phra Heritage handled it with what looked like quiet efficiency. Khun Parichat was particularly thorough in understanding the German side of things and liaised directly with my German lawyer. The final arrangement covers everything and makes sense as a whole.

Siriporn Panpradit
Chiang Mai — Estate Planning
I was referred to Phra Heritage by my accountant when I started thinking about what would happen to my business after I retire or pass away. The planning process took about a month in total and covered more ground than I expected — the sequencing of transfers to my children, a provision for my mother, and some clarity on the business ownership structure. I had to travel to Bangkok twice but it was worth it. The document is comprehensive.

Jonathan Lim
Singapore — Cross-Border
I own a condominium in Bangkok and have Singaporean assets. I needed documentation that would work in both places. The firm was straightforward about what a Thai will can and cannot cover, and they arranged for coordination with my Singapore-side advisor. The advice was clear and the fees were exactly as quoted. I also appreciated that they did not try to sell me more than I needed.

Nattaporn Wiriya
Bangkok — Will Preparation
Simple and professional. I had a clear idea of what I wanted but had no idea how to put it into a legal document. The two appointments were enough to get it done properly. The only thing I would mention is that their office is sometimes difficult to reach by phone — I found email more reliable. The quality of the work itself was not in question.

Pornthip Kasemsan
Bangkok — Estate Planning
My husband and I came to the firm together to sort out our joint estate situation. We had different views on certain things and it was useful to have a solicitor in the room who could explain the implications of each option without pushing us in any direction. The process took three appointments over about six weeks. We left with a comprehensive plan and a copy of everything that was prepared.

How We Helped
The Situation
Thai family, two adult children abroad
A retired couple in Bangkok held a family home, two investment condominiums, and a small commercial property. One child lived in the UK, another in Australia. Neither had ever discussed inheritance with their parents. There was no will.
What We Did
We prepared separate wills for both spouses, addressing each property individually and including provisions for the surviving spouse in the first instance. We advised on the implications of Thai intestacy rules for the children's respective situations and how the documents interacted with potential claims from each jurisdiction. The process took four appointments over six weeks.
The Outcome
Both clients have valid, properly witnessed wills on file. The distribution of each property is clearly specified. Their children in the UK and Australia have been given copies and understand what to do when the time comes. The family has since referred a friend to the firm.
"We kept saying we would deal with it next year. Phra Heritage made it straightforward to actually do it." — Mrs. Rattana K., Bangkok

The Situation
British expat, property in three countries
A British national working in Bangkok held a flat in London, a villa in Thailand, and a portfolio of investments managed from Hong Kong. He had a UK will that addressed only British assets, leaving the Thailand property and investment portfolio without proper documentation.
What We Did
We prepared a Thai will covering the Thailand property and the investment portfolio accounts accessible from Thailand. We coordinated with his UK solicitor to ensure the Thai will did not inadvertently revoke the UK will, and with his Hong Kong-based financial adviser on the portfolio documentation. The full coordination took approximately eight weeks including international correspondence.
The Outcome
The client now has separate, coordinated wills for each jurisdiction. The documents do not conflict and together address the full scope of his estate. He returns to the firm for an annual review, usually by email, to note any changes in his circumstances.
"The cross-border coordination was exactly what I needed. Clear advice, no overlap between documents." — T.R., Bangkok
