Criminal matters in Phuket: advice and representation

Received a summons, been sued, or need help pursuing a complaint? Lawyer Prair, Khanittha Charoenphon, provides advice, assistance during police enquiries and representation in court. We start with the allegations, evidence and current stage of the matter. Our Phuket office works with Thai and international clients and represents clients nationwide.

Start with the stage your matter has reached

Preparing a defence to a criminal claim

We examine the complaint, allegations and evidence before identifying the defence issues and preparing for the next stage. The work can include preparation and representation at a preliminary hearing where that stage applies, as well as trial proceedings.

Disputed events and the source of documents

When accounts conflict, we organise the timeline, examine where documents came from and prepare relevant evidence. This helps separate allegations from facts that can be established. Our work also includes considering appeal issues in the matters we handle.

Pursuing a complaint as the person harmed

We review what happened, the evidence and the losses before discussing a complaint, proceedings or negotiation suited to the facts. Where civil and criminal issues overlap, we explain the work involved in each before you decide how to proceed.

How we can help

  • Fraud & Cheating Allegations
  • Embezzlement & Theft
  • Assault & Bodily Harm
  • Bail Application Assistance
  • Police Station Representation
  • Cybercrime & Computer Crimes Act

Working together: process and fees

  1. Tell us the allegations and scheduled dates

    Explain whether you are a complainant or a person accused, identify the police station or court involved and share the dates shown in the documents, so we understand the next stage.

  2. Review the documents and evidence

    Start with the summons, complaint, police records and information you have. We identify what needs further checking and which witnesses or documents may be relevant.

  3. Discuss scope and costs before starting

    We discuss whether you need advice, police-stage assistance, a bail application, representation in court or another part of the work, together with the fees, before you decide to instruct us.

An initial consultation is free. Further work and fees are discussed before you decide to proceed.

Getting ready for a first conversation

Share what you already have. We can clarify which further documents are relevant when we discuss the matter.

  • Summonses, police reports, complaints or other police and court documents
  • A timeline and any scheduled appointments or hearings
  • Relevant messages, documents, images or witness information

Questions before getting in touch

Can I seek advice after receiving a summons, before a court case begins?

Yes. Tell us the appointment date and what the summons says, and explain the events and documents available. We can review the stage of the matter and discuss the information needed for the next steps.

Do you represent complainants as well as defendants?

Yes. We assist people pursuing complaints as well as those facing allegations, and represent clients on either side according to the matter accepted. Our case studies include defence work, proceedings for a person harmed and negotiated resolutions.

Can you assist an international client or a matter outside Phuket?

Yes. The office is based in Phuket and represents clients throughout Thailand. Tell us where the events took place, the police station or court involved, scheduled dates, language needs and any travel constraints, so we can discuss the work and relevant documents.
