Choosing a good narcotics lawyer in Thailand is NOT easy.
BAD LAWYERS May be OK GOOD
Many prisoners report incompetent representation .. such as:
1) inability to communicate : in either their own language .. or english.
2) poor pre-trial conferences
3) inability to stand up to the prosecutor
4) high prices .. hidden charges
5) pre-paid ... but never show at the trial
6) inability to investigate, prepare and present appropriate defending evidence
I hear many stories .. now it is time to publish our referral and avoidance list.
Each prisoner will be sent a questionnaire including these questions:
1) did you have legal representation at any time in your imprisonment.
a) initial arrest
b) first court
c) second or other courts.
2) If so .. please give
name :
date :
cost :
judge the lawyer's services ...
A=Good, B=OK, C=Terrible, D=Maybe the lawyer is a criminal him/herself
3) Do you have any second-hand stories of lawyers .. good or bad ??
please explain in as much detail as possible.
Your story may help another prisoner to select a competent legal aid.
NOTE : Lawyers are welcome to rebut these stories and evaluations.
We will publish their story ... and any prisoner's responses.
