Does anyone know of a Book on Thai law that is printed in English?

I can not find answers to questions:

for instance: If Thai wife dies in car accident what happens to the property we own, the children, her investments?

Can anyone direct me to a book, no lawyers they all want money...I can educate myself on books.

This website offers a list of Thai Law books in English.

I believe the book that covers family law is The Civil & Commercial Code.

Or you could contact the publisher direct at this website.

If you ever get a book or a lawyer see if a WILL has the same legal authority in Thailand as it does in Western countries. Perhaps you can protect your children's bequeaths with something as simple as a will.

This is exactly why I won't settle in Thailand, its a great place to live if you are earning, but for foriegners so little security

OK ... seems to me paying a lawyer to draft a good will and protect your assetts should have been done BEFORE acquiring property etc.

There are times when it just makes sense to spend a little money!

Strangely ... I have not bought much here ... but my partner named ME in the will ;-)
