you work with us
Choosing a family legal adviser is a meaningful decision. We want you to understand clearly what sets Siriwan apart — and why that difference matters when the matter is personal.

Six things that define how we work
Listening comes first
Before we offer any advice, we listen. We take time to understand your specific circumstances — the history, the concerns, and what matters most to you — so that everything we suggest is shaped around your actual situation.
Plain-language explanations
Legal processes can feel opaque. We translate everything into clear, everyday language so you always understand what is happening, what it means, and what, if anything, you need to decide.
Low-pressure, at your pace
We never push for decisions before you are ready. Family matters deserve patience. We move at the pace that feels right for you — and we will tell you honestly when time sensitivity is genuinely relevant.
Strict confidentiality
Everything shared with Siriwan is held in complete confidence. Our data handling, communication practices, and file management all reflect the highest standards of client privacy protection.
Transparent fees
Our fees are fixed and discussed openly before any work begins. Starting from ฿1,900 for a consultation, every service is clearly scoped so there are no unexpected costs at any stage.
Deep local knowledge
We are embedded in the Chiang Mai community and bring real understanding of Thai family law alongside the local context that shapes many of the matters we handle — including those involving non-Thai residents.
Professional expertise, personal approach
Our team holds formal legal qualifications and maintains active registration with the Lawyers Council of Thailand. More than that, they have spent years working specifically in family law — not as a side practice, but as their focused area of work.
That specialisation means the advice you receive is grounded in real experience with situations similar to yours. We have guided families through consultations, cooperative arrangements, and formal proceedings — and we bring that accumulated understanding to each new client we meet.
What this means for you
Advice grounded in genuine family law specialism, not general practice
Experience with Thai nationals, foreign residents, and international families
A team that stays current with changes in Thai family law
Professional accountability through Bar Association membership
What this means for you
Clear written agreement on scope and cost before work begins
No unexpected add-ons or charges mid-process
Regular updates so you always know where your matter stands
Steps explained before they happen, not after
A clear, calm process from start to finish
One of the things people find most difficult about family legal matters is not knowing what comes next. We work to remove that uncertainty at every stage. Before we begin, you understand exactly what is involved and what the likely path looks like.
We send updates when things progress. We flag anything that changes. And we never assume you remember something we mentioned weeks ago — we keep the whole picture available and accessible throughout.
A preference for cooperation over conflict
Where possible, we believe cooperative resolution serves families better than adversarial approaches. Not every family matter needs to become a dispute. Many situations can be resolved with thoughtful mediation, well-prepared documents, and the kind of calm facilitation that our Cooperative Arrangement service is built around.
When formal proceedings are necessary, we handle them with the same calm professionalism — but we will always discuss whether a cooperative path might be worth exploring first.
What this means for you
Guidance on whether cooperative or formal routes best fit your circumstances
Arrangements that both parties can understand and live with long-term
Reduced emotional and financial cost where cooperation is possible
Experienced formal representation when needed, handled with care
HOW WE COMPARE
Siriwan versus a typical legal practice
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Distinctive features of working with Siriwan
Bilingual service in English and Thai
We work fluently in both languages — a significant advantage for international families, foreign residents, or any situation where cross-language clarity matters. Documentation can be prepared in either language or both.
Child welfare considerations built in
Where children are involved, their wellbeing shapes every arrangement we help to form. We are experienced in child-related family matters and approach them with particular thoughtfulness.
Flexible appointment times
We offer appointments Monday through Saturday, with early or later slots available on request. We understand that family situations do not always fit neatly around a nine-to-five schedule.
Document preparation included
For our arrangement and representation services, document preparation is part of the service — not an add-on. We handle the paperwork carefully so that what is signed reflects exactly what was agreed.
