Case results
Finding Justice for My Client: A Family Law Success in Chiang Mai
Child Support
As a family law attorney specializing in the Chiang Mai Juvenile and Family Court, I have had the opportunity to represent clients in a wide range of cases. But one case stands out as a particularly significant success for both my client and me.
I was retained by the ex-husband, who was facing claims for twenty million baht in child support from his ex-wife. The ex-wife was demanding an unreasonable amount of support, and my client was struggling to keep up with the payments. Our defense was simple: the child support should be reasonable, taking into account the financial circumstances of both parties.
However, the challenge we faced was significant: we were up against the biggest law office in town, and they had a reputation for being relentless in their pursuit of victory. But I was determined to help my client find a fair and reasonable solution, and so I focused on finding evidence to support our case.
The court heard our argument, and after careful consideration, the judge made a ruling in our favor. The ex-husband was required to pay a more reasonable amount of child support, one that he could afford without causing undue financial strain.
The most impressive moment of the case came when my client heard the judgement. Despite his calm demeanor throughout the proceedings, he couldn't hold back the tears when he realized that the burden of excessive child support payments was lifted from his shoulders. It was a powerful moment that showcased the profound impact that the legal system can have on people's lives.
I am proud to have served my client in English and French, and I am grateful for the opportunity to help him find a resolution to his legal dispute. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of my work in helping clients navigate the complex legal system and find fair and just solutions to their disputes, even when facing tough opponents.
Justice Served: Aphiwat Law's Success in Protecting Consumers right
Consumer Protection
At Aphiwat Law, we understand the importance of protecting consumers and their rights. Our team of experienced lawyers specializes in consumer protection and is dedicated to providing clients with the best possible representation in court.
One of our most recent cases involved a group of 20 buyers who were seeking justice against a big real estate developer. Our clients were part of a group of over 500 buyers who had invested in a new development, but were left in the lurch when the developer stopped construction due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The developer tried to claim that the money invested by the buyers was an investment contract with a high interest offer, but our team knew that this was not the case. Instead, we argued that the developer was running a Ponzi scheme and that the contract was written in a way that bent the facts to make it appear legitimate.
The case was heard in the Chiang Mai Provincial Court, and we are proud to say that our clients emerged victorious. The court ruled in their favor, and our legal expertise helped our clients navigate the complex consumer protection process.
One of the biggest challenges we faced in this case was the opposition we faced from a well-known lawyer who was representing the developer. The developer had also drafted a tricky contract, which made our job even more difficult. However, we remained focused on the facts and were able to successfully prove that the money invested by the buyers was not being used for construction, but was instead part of a scheme.
Another challenge we faced was that the developer had hidden the property, making it difficult for us to seize it and enforce the judgement. Despite this, our team was not deterred and was able to overcome these obstacles to achieve a successful outcome for our clients.
We are proud to serve clients in English, making it easier for clients to understand the legal process and the steps we are taking on their behalf. Our commitment to consumer protection and our focus on delivering results make us one of the top law offices in Chiang Mai.
Debt Recovered: Aphiwat Law's Success in a Challenging Debt Collection Case
Debt & Collection
At Aphiwat Law, we understand the difficulties that can arise when collecting a debt. That's why our team of experienced lawyers is dedicated to helping clients recover what they're owed in a quick and efficient manner.
Recently, we represented a client who was trying to recover a debt of 100,000 Thai Baht from his ex-girlfriend. She claimed that the money was a gift, but our client had chat and email evidence that showed it was a loan.
Our lawyers worked hard to negotiate a resolution without the need for a court hearing. In the end, the ex-girlfriend agreed to pay the debt and interest, bringing the matter to a close. We were proud to have helped our client, who had previously given up hope of ever recovering the money owed to him.
One of the challenges in this case was the possibility of the debt not being paid, which would have required us to file a lawsuit with no guarantee of collecting the debt. However, our team sent a lawyer's order to pay, putting pressure on the ex-girlfriend to settle the debt. Another challenge was that the ex-girlfriend did not own any property, which made it difficult for us to seize anything if we won the case. Despite these obstacles, our team was able to find a solution that worked for our client.
We're committed to serving our clients in English, making it easier for them to understand the legal process and the steps we're taking on their behalf. Our focus on debt collection cases makes us a top law office in the region.
This case was a clear example of our commitment to delivering results for our clients. We're proud to have helped our client recover the debt owed to him, and we look forward to continuing to help clients in similar situations in the future.
