Purpose: File an application to legalize myself as my son's legal father recognized in the country of Thailand.

Reason: In case (GOD forbid) the mother passes away prematurely.

• uncontested
  
• not married
  
• mother will cooperate
  
• Father - farang - Canada
  
• child is 2 years old
  
• father named on Birth Certificate (doesn't mean much but it is good that I am named on it)
  
• born in Bangkok but house card and residence is Phitsanulok District
  
• have DNA test results confirming fatherhood from Thai Hospital
  
• have Canadian Citizenship card for the child already
  

Bottom line, this should be a slam dunk.

I visited the

Phitsanulok Provincial Court Juvenile And Family Division

Hua Ro, Mueang Phitsanulok

Phitsanulok 65000, Thailand.

They want a lawyer to submit the application. In fairness, they would if the applicant has no funds for a lawyer.

Any suggestions

As you say, this is a no brainer and any lawyer could do it for you. Just check a few lawyers and take the cheapst one.
