Thai888 Law firm is seeking the UK address of Leon Casey deceased. Leon died in Pattaya Thailand in 2022. We contacted the UK Embassy in Bangkok and they had no info on Leon and he remained in the morgue for over 50 days before we could cremate him. The delay was caused by having no info on Leon or next of kin to contact. We have since been making application for probate however we don’t have an address of his property in UK Guildford and so cannot list it as an asset. Can you advise us of the address of the property and if it is tenanted? I am aware of the privacy laws however we have run out of avenues to contact. If you cannot help us can the local police assist us? regards Kelvin Thai888 Law Thailand – [email protected] = So far we have contacted many Government offices in the UK and regretfully they state that due to privacy issues they cannot give us any information. One day they will be owed money and may contact me to pay Bills , in the meantime please contact me with any knowledge of Mr Casey’s life and times. Thank you
Unfortunately, John has passed away. Kelvin Bamfield from Thai888 Law has been named by the Pattaya Courts as the Executor or Administrator of Johns estate.
Please contact me on [email protected]
Some had contracts for renting condos and these tenants or the agents should contact us immediately as the condos would need to be sold within 12 months after the grant of probate from the courts
John was often referred to as the dancing man as whenever he went out you could see him as the first person on the dance floor

Last week in court the Judge questioned a UK Will in that the immovable property (the condo) was given to 2 of the heirs. Their name was specifically attached to this asset at 50/50 % each. However, the movable asset (money in the bank) was not allocated to these heirs and so the Judge request a family tree to show who is alive and who is not. The UK Will was drawn up in old English with bits of Greek thrown in to make it sound official. However, in a Thai Court with a Thai Judge hearing my testimony translated into Thai has was not convinced.
The issue was that the condo could be given to the Beneficiaries however the money in the bank was classified as residual and was needed to pay the bills, funeral, lawyers, etc. and what was left (residual) was to be given to who? The English Will was specific in this and stated that under section 41 of UK Law that all debts be settled by the Trustees (Executors) however Thailand does not have trusts or trustees – but rather controllers of property where the heir of Beneficiary is under age.
Thai Courts, Thai Property, Thai laws and not UK or any other countries Law. However, Thai Courts will sometimes rule if another country has already ruled in favour in their own country. This is a precedence that can have weight in the case in Thailand if another international court has already determined the verdict. But still clarification is needed.
Our Wills are designed for Thailand, although we do make international Wills, and are in Thai and English. Our Wills are proof read and signed off by the Testator (the person making the Will) and this shows they understand what their wishes are and that the are of sound mind (competent) to make this legal document. Thai888 Wills can involve other countries assets however should you pass away then international laws may come into play, overseas taxes etc. You may want to consider separating the Wills are this will stop any legal issues after you pass. Remember in the UK over a certain amount of money could attract a 40% tax. You can talk to us about this should you have an issue
Contact [email protected] and I will send you a checklist that points out what info we need to make your Will. We make a draft and send it to you. Any changes we can make. Then when you’re happy we will print it out, you come to sign, all is bound together with your picture (showing your competent) and signed by 2 witnesses in our legal offices. Then and only then do you pay.
This is wrong thinking as your body is in a foreign country and so the Embassy/Consulate, Police, Morgue, Hospital, Next of Kin, Temple, ashes, etc all need to be taken care of and when there is a Will in place and an administrator to contact it makes everything much easier.
Do yourself and your family / friends a favour and MAKE a Will now!!!

There are several Lawyers as well, but they are rarely in the office all at once and so hard to get a group photo. Perhaps at the Christmas party 2022.
