Civil cases generally cover property and business disputes, personal domestic controversies, divorces, torts, and such other types where a party's rights are breached.

Several factors are taken into account in the filing of a civil lawsuit. These include the proper designation of the case, the jurisdiction of the court, the determination of the proper parties, and many others which will make the assistance of a lawyer indispensable. Failure to properly determine any of the said factors can cause serious consequences, like the early dismissal of the suit.

Aggrieved parties commonly go to the Police to make a report of a criminal incident. The Police then proceeds to investigate the alleged crime and reports its findings before the Office of the Prosecutor. The Office of the Prosecutor, on the other hand, files the appropriate criminal case in Court.

The overwhelming number of criminal reports have resulted in delays in investigations and prosecution. As a solution to this, private citizens have been allowed to come to hire lawyers who will directly file the criminal case in courts, instead of taking the police reporting route. While this is a more expedient choice, the private party of course bears the consequence of bearing the costs of the private case filing.

Complaints on illegal dismissal or unlawful termination must be brought by the offended employee first to the Labor Relations Committee. At this early level, the Committee explores the possibility of a peaceful compromise between the employer and the employee. If settlement on the issue is an impossibility and the committee finds probable cause against the offending party, it makes the appropriate recommendation for the filing of a labor lawsuit.

Complainants may file their petition or case without the help of a lawyer, but having one will have much advantage. Same as in most forums in Thailand, the proceedings are conducted in the native tongue. The expertise of Thai lawyers will likewise assure the litigant that his rights will be fully protected, and all possible claims for compensation are brought to the attention of the Committee or the court.

It is important that foreign litigants are represented by Thai lawyers in cases brought before Thai tribunals. This is because the entire proceedings are conducted in the local tongue. While some Arbitral proceedings now allow foreign lawyers to appear for their clients, much of the proceedings are still conducted in Thai. Likewise, all documents submitted before the courts have to be translated to Thai in order to be admitted to court.

The best option when filing commercial cases is to be assisted by a Thai lawyer who can deliver himself well in both English in Thai, and has extensive experience in commercial litigation.

Adoption in Thailand is the act of legally placing an adopted child with adoptive parents other than the biological parents of the child. An adoption order has the effect of severing parental responsibilities and rights of the natural parents and transferring those responsibilities and rights to the adoptive parents.

Currently, the following countries have extradition treaties with Thailand: the US, the UK, Canada, China, Belgium, Philippines, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, South Korea, Bangladesh, Fiji, and Australia.

Under the principle of reciprocity in extradition, requests for extradition may be made by states which have no treaty of extradition with Thailand, but such states must clearly express a commitment to grant extradition of fugitives required by Thailand in a similar manner when requested. This being the case, extradition requests will usually be considered from states with no formal treaty on an ad hoc basis.
