please be advised that Richard Ravensdale’s from the Pattaya Expats Club in Thailand funeral for the 27th August 2010 has been cancelled until further notice
Thai888 Law does not have the power of attorney (POA) needed to release Richards body from the Hospital for cremation
This POA is held by another party and we are in the process of getting a new one from the UK Embassy – possibly next week
We shall advise you in due course
Again please accept our apologies for the delay however it is beyond our control
For those in the UK and due to the corona virus the following is offered.
Normally, the Will needs to be signed in the same room with the same pen and often a video or a picture is take to prove a few things.
Number 1 is that the person was competent, a key part of the Will.
Number 2 that there is no forgery as the Testator is signing the Will that can be clearly seen.
Many times Thai888 Law has drawn up a Will for a person living overseas and couriered this and a pen to the Testator so that they can used their witnesses in the same room at the same time and same pen.
DONT FORGET that Thai888 Law has another company called Abroad Funerals and together we can manage everything from making the Will, funeral cremation, all the legal issues with the Embassy, police, forensic lab, transport, repatriation and application to the court for a Grant of Probate, we can act as your Power of Attorney as no one can fly into Thailand to attend court and the judge has approve our Australian CEO to represent you, sell assets and send to you the money from the assets and bank accounts. We clear this through the Money Laundering Office, so there are no issues.
Also talk to me about the Death Tax in the UK as we may save you paying 40% in the total assets.
All this can be done with a few phone calls and the internet.
