Is a Thai lawyer always needed in simple court matter?

[Lightangel000]

Hi

I have a bachelors degree in economy/law - and I can represent myself in court  abroad , in a simple matter like

an inheritance battle.  Must I use a Thai lawyer in Thai court, when applying in court for grant of probate, as I

could provide evidence of fraud with a local smart Thai speaking university graduate/student in court.

 

In my country Sweden we are never forced to use a lawyer in court in  simple matters.

 

Thank you for  any input.

Doesn't matter what qualifications you have so yes unless you can read write Thai and speak it.

yes -

sorry - was unclear:

I was told by a Thai court that for a simple application for grant of probate re application as executor that a Thai lawyer must send the applicaition, otherwise

the court will  not accept it!    I have opposed in court the other executor - but do not need a lawyer for such a simple thing, and I am not forced by court here to employ  one - like the Thai court said I must to apply as executor.
