The Sombat Difference
Six things that shape every case we handle.
Focused Expertise
Inheritance law is all we do. That depth of focus means fewer gaps, fewer delays, and attorneys who have seen cases like yours before.
Respectful Pace
We do not push families to make decisions quickly. The process moves when you are comfortable — not when it suits a billing cycle.
Clear Communication
Every document, every step, and every requirement is explained before it happens — in language that is straightforward, not legal shorthand.
Discreet Practice
Estate matters involve private family information. We keep everything confidential as a professional obligation and a personal one.
Transparent Fees
Our fees are stated upfront in Thai Baht. We do not add costs without discussion, and we put scope agreements in writing before work begins.
Complete Documentation
We prepare all required documents with care and review each one for accuracy — reducing the chance of delays or corrections during court processes.
In More Detail
Each Benefit, Explained
Professional Expertise
Our lead attorney has over fourteen years working specifically in estate and probate matters under Thai law. This is not a practice that handles inheritance as one of many legal areas — it is the only thing we do.
- Registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand
- Experienced with Bangkok probate court procedures
- Familiar with Thai Civil and Commercial Code provisions
Organised & Systematic Process
We use a structured case management approach that keeps track of every document, deadline, and court requirement. Families benefit from organised progress without having to keep track themselves.
- Documented case files available to clients on request
- Clear record of all steps completed and upcoming
- No important details missed through oversight
Client Service Excellence
We respond to questions and concerns as a matter of priority. Every family has a named point of contact, and we do not let enquiries go unanswered.
- Named contact person for every case
- Responses to enquiries within one working day
- Appointments scheduled around family availability
Straightforward Pricing
Our service fees begin at ฿3,600 for an estate consultation and are stated clearly before any engagement begins. Families managing an estate already have enough to think about.
- Prices stated in full before engagement
- No unexpected additions mid-service
- Scope changes discussed openly and agreed in writing
How We Compare
Sombat vs. Typical Legal Practices
Not all legal services handle inheritance matters with the same level of care or focus.
| Area | Typical Practices | Sombat |
|---|---|---|
| Specialisation | General practice — inheritance is one of many areas | Inheritance and estate matters only |
| Client Communication | Updates when documents require signatures | Regular updates at each stage |
| Fee Transparency | Hourly billing, often unclear total | Fixed fee per service, stated upfront |
| Language Used | Technical legal terminology throughout | Plain English explanations at every step |
| Pace of Work | Driven by office capacity and caseload | Aligned to the family's readiness |
| Initial Consultation | May carry a fee, often brief | Full consultation service, ฿3,600 — thorough, unhurried |
