Six Reasons to Choose Anurak
Pension-Only Focus
We handle nothing but pension matters. That single focus means we know the procedures, the authorities, and the common pitfalls in a way that generalist practices do not.
Fixed, Published Fees
Three services, three prices — ฿2,100 / ฿3,600 / ฿5,700 — known before any work begins. No hourly billing, no open-ended cost.
Plain Language, Always
Every explanation — whether written or spoken — is in language you can follow. If something is not clear, we rephrase it. That is not a courtesy; it is part of the job.
No Pressure, No Rush
We work at the pace the matter needs. You are welcome to take time between appointments, ask for written summaries, or bring someone with you. None of that changes the fee.
Confidential from the Start
Your records and case details are handled under professional confidentiality obligations from the moment you contact us. We store and share information only as required by your matter.
Deep Local Knowledge
Based in Lumphini, Bangkok, we work with Thailand's pension offices regularly. We know how they operate, what they need from documentation, and how to address them effectively.
In More Detail
How Each Benefit Works in Practice
Professional Expertise in Pension Law
Our team's legal knowledge is concentrated in one area: pension entitlements and related proceedings under Thai law. This means that when we assess your records, we are drawing on years of practice in exactly this type of work — not applying general legal knowledge to an unfamiliar subject. We know the Social Security Act, the Government Pension Fund Act, and the administrative appeals procedures that govern how pension decisions are challenged.
- Thorough knowledge of Thai pension legislation and amendments
- Direct experience with the Social Security Office and Government Pension Fund
- Familiarity with how pension authorities review and respond to appeals
A Clear, Documented Process
When you engage Anurak, you receive a written summary of what we will do, in what order, and what we need from you. Nothing is left vague. As work progresses, you receive updates in writing — not legal summaries full of jargon, but plain notes explaining where things stand. If the situation changes, we contact you before taking any further step.
- Written engagement summary before work begins
- Progress updates in plain language at each stage
- No step taken without client knowledge and agreement
Client Service That Takes Time
We do not rush consultations. Many people who come to us with pension matters are dealing with them on top of other pressures — health concerns, retirement planning, or family situations. We listen properly, answer questions fully, and are available by phone during office hours for follow-up questions between appointments.
- Unhurried consultations in person or by phone
- Phone access during office hours for questions between appointments
- Option to bring a family member or friend to any meeting
Transparent Value and Pricing
Our fees are fixed per service and published. A pension eligibility review costs ฿2,100. Representation before authorities costs ฿3,600. An appeal of reduced or withheld benefits costs ฿5,700. There are no hourly rates, retainers, or costs that accumulate while you are waiting. If additional work is needed beyond the agreed scope, we say so in advance and agree the cost before proceeding.
- Three fixed fees, known before engagement
- No hourly billing or accumulating retainer costs
- Scope changes discussed and agreed before additional work begins
How We Compare
Anurak vs. General Legal Practices
Most legal practices handle pension questions alongside many other matters. Anurak does not. Here is what that difference looks like in practice.
| Feature | Typical General Practice | Anurak |
|---|---|---|
| Scope of practice | Mixed — pension is one of many areas | Pension matters only |
| Fee structure | Hourly or retainer — cost uncertain | Fixed per service, known in advance |
| Communication style | Often formal legal language | Plain language, questions welcomed |
| Progress updates | Variable — may require chasing | Written updates at each stage |
| Familiarity with Thai pension authorities | Varies widely | Daily working knowledge |
| Consultation pace | Driven by billing clock | At the client's pace, no extra cost |
What Only We Offer
Distinctive Features of Our Practice
Written Case Summaries
After each significant stage, we provide a short written summary of what was done and what was found. Most clients keep these as a record and find them useful when corresponding with pension offices independently.
Named Adviser Continuity
You are assigned a named legal adviser from the start. That person knows your file. You do not re-explain your situation each time you call.
English and Thai
We work fluently in both languages. Clients who prefer to discuss their matter in English, in Thai, or in a mix of both are equally well served. Documentation is prepared in the language the authority requires.
Phone Availability Between Appointments
Questions do not only arise during planned consultations. We are reachable by phone during office hours so that a question which comes up later in the week can be answered without waiting for the next appointment.
