Property & Real Estate Conflicts in Thailand

Real estate disagreements are among the most frequent civil disputes in Thailand. They often stem from unclear agreements, stalled development projects, title deed irregularities, boundary conflicts, and misrepresentation or fraudulent activity. These issues can escalate quickly, especially for foreign buyers who may be unfamiliar with Thai land laws, administrative processes, and documentation standards.

BASE Law Firm provides end-to-end legal support to developers, investors, property owners, and individuals navigating complex real estate disputes. Our team pairs strong litigation experience with deep knowledge of Thailand’s land regulations, construction requirements, contract law, and local administrative procedures to ensure clients receive practical, strategic solutions.

Our service include:

  • Title deed and ownership checks
  • Contract breach and delay claims
  • Boundary and encroachment resolution
  • Lease and tenancy dispute support
  • Fraud and misrepresentation actions
  • Litigation before Thai courts

Key Areas of Real Estate Litigation We Handle

1. Delayed or Incomplete Developments

Delays in condominium, villa, housing, or commercial projects are common. When developers fail to meet contractual timelines or deliver agreed-upon specifications, buyers are entitled to seek remedies such as contract enforcement, compensation, or a refund with interest.
BASE Law Firm evaluates breach-of-contract claims, negotiates with developers, and litigates when necessary to protect our clients’ financial and property interests.

2. Ownership, Title, and Documentation Disputes

Conflicts involving fraudulent title deeds, forged signatures, unauthorized transfers, and inaccurate land documentation require immediate legal attention. These disputes often result in severe financial loss for buyers.
Our lawyers examine land records, verify ownership history, coordinate with public authorities, and initiate legal action to secure and protect legitimate property rights.

3. Boundary and Encroachment Matters

Encroachment occurs when a structure extends beyond legal boundaries or obstructs another property’s access or rights. These disputes often appear in high-value coastal, hillside, and urban areas.
We assist with professional boundary investigations, survey objections, negotiations, and court actions to resolve encroachment issues effectively.

4. Easements and Access Rights

Right-of-way disputes arise when property access is blocked or when easement use is contested. Courts may intervene when parties cannot reach a voluntary agreement.
BASE Law Firm advises landowners and affected parties on legal entitlements, evidentiary requirements, and representation in easement-related claims.

5. Disputes in Property Sales and Construction Agreements

Conflicts frequently arise from disagreements over payment schedules, specification changes, construction defects, or failure to fulfill contractual obligations.
We review agreements, assess liability, and guide clients through negotiation, mediation, or litigation depending on the nature of the breach.

6. Lease and Tenancy Conflicts

Issues between landlords and tenants (such as non-payment, property damage, unauthorized use, or disputes about renewal rights) are common in both residential and commercial leases.
Our team drafts, reviews, and litigates lease agreements and advises on enforceability, especially for long-term leases requiring Land Office registration.

7. Trespassing Claims

Unauthorized entry onto private property may give rise to both civil and criminal consequences under Thai law. Property owners may seek damages, injunctions, or protective orders.
We guide clients through the appropriate procedures to assert their rights and prevent recurring violations.

8. Adverse Possession (Prescription)

Under Thai law, long-term occupation of unused land may result in claims of possessory rights. Disputes arise when original owners return to reclaim land or challenge unlawful occupation.
We assist clients in gathering evidence, proving legitimate ownership, and defending against or contesting adverse possession claims.
