On 24 July 2026, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, Director and Attorney at Wongsakorn Law Firm, presented a Certificate of Congratulations to Ms. Amphon chaisodsai (Paul), an internship student from the Faculty of Liberal Arts, Chinese Language and Culture Program, Thammasat University, in recognition of her successful completion of her professional internship at Wongsakorn Law Firm.
Completing this internship marks another important milestone in Paul’s academic and professional journey. Unlike many of her peers, she chose a distinctive internship path by applying her knowledge of the Chinese language to the legal profession. This unique experience enabled her to develop practical skills in legal translation, cross-cultural communication, and legal practice—an opportunity that is both challenging and rarely available, providing a strong foundation for her future career.
Throughout her internship, Paul gained invaluable learning experiences beyond the classroom. While Chinese language students typically undertake internships in businesses or organizations focused on language and communication, her placement at a law firm provided a unique opportunity to experience the legal profession and judicial process firsthand.
During her internship, she observed legal proceedings, followed case management processes, and had the opportunity to serve as a Chinese interpreter in court, facilitating communication between the parties involved and the court during judicial proceedings. This was an exceptionally rare and valuable experience, as only a small number of students are afforded such opportunities. Even members of the general public seldom have the chance to witness real courtroom litigation firsthand, making this internship an extraordinary milestone in her academic and professional development.
In addition to serving as a Chinese interpreter, Paul was entrusted with a wide range of responsibilities throughout her internship. These included translating legal documents for the firm’s legal department, translating the firm’s articles and promotional content into Thai, English, and Chinese for publication on its website, translating quotations and business documents into Chinese, and assisting the Wongsakorn Law Firm team in communicating and coordinating with Chinese clients.
These diverse responsibilities enabled her to further strengthen her language proficiency while developing essential skills in communication, teamwork, and professional collaboration. More importantly, the internship provided her with valuable hands-on experience in applying Chinese language skills within both legal and business contexts, effectively bridging academic knowledge with real-world practice.
Wongsakorn Law Firm is truly honored to have had the opportunity to contribute to the professional development of a student from Thammasat University, one of Thailand’s leading academic institutions renowned for producing highly qualified graduates who continue to make meaningful contributions to society.
Leaked intimate videoscan cause devastating harm to victims, severely affecting their reputation, mental well-being, education, career, and personal lives. Many people believe that once a video has been uploaded to the internet, it can never be removed, based on the common belief that a digital footprint lasts forever. However, based on the real case experience of Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri from Wongsakorn Law Firm, many cases have shown that with a well-planned legal strategy and a systematic approach, it is possible to have websites remove a victim’s leaked video from their platforms. One of the most widely discussed cases involved a university student whose intimate videowas uploaded to an adult website by a former partner and exploited for unlawful gain. Through a thorough investigation, the case was expanded, ultimately leading to the arrest of the suspect. However, beyond pursuing criminal prosecution, another equally important objective was to minimize the harm suffered by the victim as quickly as possible—particularly by taking legal action to have the websites hosting the video remove the content from their platforms.
The Case Does Not End with the Arrest of the Offender. The Leaked Video May Still Be Published on Multiple Websites.
Many people believe that once the police have arrested the person responsible for leaking the video, the case is over. In reality, however, the damage online may still remain. The video may have been reposted on multiple websites or continue to be shared repeatedly across the internet. According to the experience of Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, after continuous legal action was taken, the website that had published the victim’s leaked video successfully removed the video of the 19-year-old victim from its platform. This demonstrates that although many people believe a digital footprint can never be erased, it is possible in some cases to reduce the damage through timely and appropriate legal action.
However, the outcome of each case depends on the specific facts, the nature of the website involved, and the level of cooperation provided by the service provider. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that content can be removed in every case. Nevertheless, taking the correct legal steps from the outset generally provides a much greater chance of minimizing the damage than allowing time to pass without action.
Why Shouldn’t You Rush to File a Police Report Without a Proper Plan?
Lawyer Arm consistently emphasizes that if you are being threatened with the release of an intimate video, or if you discover that the video has already been published, you should not rush to take action without a proper legal strategy in place. This does not mean that you should avoid reporting the matter to the police. Rather, it means that you should be properly prepared before taking legal action. For example:
Collect and preserve all relevant electronic evidence.
Record the URLs, website names, dates, times, and other relevant details.
Assess the potential risks and consider how each step may affect the offender’s behavior.
Develop a legal strategy covering criminal proceedings, civil claims, and requests for the removal of the published content.
These preparations help ensure that legal proceedings are carried out carefully and strategically, while also increasing the likelihood of minimizing the damage suffered by the victim. When Love Becomes the Cause of a Leaked Intimate Video Many of the cases handled by Wongsakorn Law Firm begin in a similar way. While the couple was still in a relationship, both parties trusted each other and mutually consented to taking private photos or videos. However, once the relationship ended, that trust was turned into a tool for intimidation and coercion. -Some victims are threatened into getting back together with their former partner. -Some are blackmailed for money. -Some have their intimate videos published as an act of revenge. -Others have their videos exploited for profit on websites associated with adult content or online gambling.
These incidents can have a devastating psychological impact. Many victims are forced to suspend their studies, change jobs, or withdraw from social life out of fear that others will discover their leaked videos.
Can the Person Who Leaked the Video Escape Liability by Claiming They Were Not the One Who Published It?
In many cases, the accused often claims that…
My phone was lost.
I took my phone in for repair.
My account was hacked.
I don’t know who uploaded the video.
These explanations are merely issues to be evaluated based on the evidence in each individual case. Simply making such claims does not automatically exempt a person from legal liability. If the available evidence establishes a connection between the accused and the alleged conduct or demonstrates their involvement, the court may still determine liability based on the facts of the case and the applicable law.
The Best Protection Is Not Creating Intimate Videos in the First Place.
Although the law provides measures to protect victims, prevention is always the best safeguard. Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri offers this advice: When people are in love, trust may lead them to consent to taking private photos or videos. However, no one can predict how a relationship will end. When love turns into conflict, what was once private may be used to cause serious harm.
For this reason, avoiding the creation of intimate photos or videos from the outset is the most effective way to reduce the risk.
What Should You Do If You Are Being Threatened with a Leaked Intimate Video?
If you are facing this type of situation, the most important thing is not to panic or make hasty decisions out of fear. Preserve as much relevant evidence as possible and consult a legal professional to assess the most appropriate course of action based on the specific facts of your case.
Careful planning from the outset not only improves the effectiveness of legal proceedings but may also help prevent the damage from spreading further. Finally, a leaked intimate video is not something the victim should be ashamed of. Rather, it may involve unlawful conduct by the person who disseminates another individual’s private content or exploits it for improper gain.
If you have been affected by this type of incident, you should seek legal advice as soon as possible. Early legal consultation can help you develop an appropriate strategy for preserving evidence, pursuing legal action, and minimizing the resulting harm based on the specific facts of your case.
On 24 July 2026, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, Managing Director and Attorney at Wongsakorn Law Firm, presented a certificate of congratulations to Ms. Chonthicha Kaewsananai (Mind), a trainee of the 66th Practical Advocacy Training Program organized by the Lawyers Council of Thailand under the Royal Patronage. She has been undertaking her practical training at Wongsakorn Law Firm since 2 February 2026 and is scheduled to complete the program on 3 August 2026. This marks another important milestone on her legal career journey and the beginning of her path toward becoming a professional lawyer with pride.
Throughout several months of practical training, Mind gained hands-on experience in legal practice through real cases, including preparing case documents, reviewing case files, assisting lawyers with legal work, and learning the systematic operations of a law firm. These valuable experiences cannot be acquired from textbooks alone. Practical training has given her a deeper understanding of the roles, responsibilities, professional duties, and ethical standards expected of legal practitioners.
On this occasion, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri congratulated Mind and shared his thoughts on professional development. He emphasized that experience is the most valuable asset for anyone in the workplace. Working in different organizations allows people to gain diverse perspectives, recognize different strengths and management approaches, and compare them to identify the most suitable path for their own growth. In contrast, those who have only worked in one organization may not have had the opportunity to see the broader picture of the working world. Therefore, giving yourself the opportunity to learn through real-world experience is a worthwhile investment for the future.
Lawyer Arm also shared his views on practical training for law students and advocacy trainees. He said that choosing to complete an internship through real hands-on work is highly commendable because it reflects honesty and a genuine commitment to learning the profession. Although some people today choose to register for an internship in name only in order to complete the program without actually participating in practical training, simply obtaining a certificate without real experience can never replace the knowledge, understanding, and practical skills gained through hands-on work. The legal profession requires not only knowledge and professional competence, but also integrity and honesty from the very first step of one’s career.
Wongsakorn Law Firm would like to extend its sincere congratulations and appreciation to Ms. Chonthicha Kaewsananai (Mind) for choosing to learn through real-world experience and for successfully completing her practical training. We believe that the experience she has gained throughout her internship will serve as a strong foundation for building confidence, responsibility, and professionalism in her future legal career. No matter what challenges or working environments she may encounter, she will be well prepared to move forward with confidence and pride.
Finally, Wongsakorn Law Firm wishes Mind every success in both her personal life and professional career. We sincerely hope that the experience gained from this practical training will become the first stepping stone toward becoming an outstanding lawyer—one who possesses professional knowledge, competence, strong ethics, and unwavering integrity, and who will make meaningful contributions to society and the justice system in the future.
On 25 July 2026, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, Managing Director and Attorney at Wongsakorn Law Firm, met with the management team of Zhongtian Overseas Engineering (Thailand) Co., Ltd. at the company’s invitation. The meeting followed the management’s interest in the firm’s corporate legal advisory services and their intention to discuss the scope of legal support, as well as legal strategies relating to the company’s projects. This meeting marks another significant milestone in strengthening the partnership between Wongsakorn Law Firm and an international business organization.
During this visit, Lawyer Arm was accompanied by Mr. Krittapak Siritippha, a Senior Chinese Legal Assistant; Ms. Amphon Chaisodsa, a Chinese Interpreter from the Faculty of Liberal Arts, Chinese Language and Culture Program, Thammasat University; Ms. Sarinee Saelao, a Chinese major internship student from Southwest University, China; Ms. Piyaluck Boonkor, Acting Head of Corporate Communications; and Ms. Ploywarin jaiut, a Legal Intern from the Faculty of Law, Thammasat University. The team provided comprehensive legal support and facilitated effective communication in Chinese throughout the discussions.
The meeting was held in a warm and friendly atmosphere, with Zhongtian Overseas Engineering (Thailand) Co., Ltd. extending a gracious welcome to the delegation from Wongsakorn Law Firm. This marked the second formal meeting between the two parties. During the discussion, both sides exchanged views on various legal matters related to the company’s business operations. The company’s management also raised a number of issues requiring further clarification. Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri provided detailed explanations of the applicable laws and practical legal approaches, enabling the management to make informed and well-considered business decisions.
This meeting reflects the strong confidence that foreign enterprises place in Wongsakorn Law Firm as a trusted corporate legal advisor. The firm’s services encompass corporate legal consultation, legal risk management, and litigation before the courts. Given the productive discussions and the positive atmosphere throughout the meeting, both parties viewed this as an encouraging sign for future collaboration. It also represents another significant milestone in Wongsakorn Law Firm’s continued expansion of comprehensive, professional legal services for foreign companies investing and operating in Thailand.
On July 17, 2026, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, Managing Director of Wongsakorn Law Firm, presented a certificate to Ms. Natnicha Pruittipongkul, also known as Mavy, a student from the Faculty of Law, Chulalongkorn University, upon the completion of her legal internship at the firm. Throughout her internship, Mavy had the opportunity to closely observe and learn about the work of lawyers, both in the office and through actual fieldwork. This experience was entirely different from studying in a classroom. In this column, we share an interview with Mayvie about her experience as an intern at Wongsakorn Law Firm and what it is like to intern at a law firm.
Interview with Mavy, a Legal Intern from the Faculty of Law, Chulalongkorn University
Q: Why did you choose to intern at a law firm?
A: “Legal work is actually very diverse. Many people may aim to work in the public sector, such as interning at a court or at a public prosecutor’s office. However, I wanted to try something different. To understand what happens before a case reaches the court, you need to intern at a law firm. That is how you learn about the procedures at this stage and understand how to proceed correctly when the case goes to court.”
Q: What did you do during your internship?
A: “I had the opportunity to do many different tasks during my internship. I began drafting complaints, writing motions, preparing sets of documents for filing a lawsuit, and drafting statements. I was able to do many things, which helped me realize that there is a great deal of preparation and many documents required before a case can be brought before the court.”
Q: What places did you have the opportunity to visit during your internship here?
A: “I had the opportunity to visit places I had never imagined I would be able to go. The first place I visited was where I paid my respects before the royal remains of the Queen Mother. It was a very meaningful opportunity for me, and I never thought I would have the chance to experience something like that. I also had the opportunity to go on a study visit to Parliament. Parliament is one of the most important institutions in the legal field because it forms the foundation of the lawmaking process. Since Parliament is responsible for enacting laws, we had the opportunity to observe the process at its source. I was also able to attend and observe a parliamentary debate and take a tour of the new Parliament building. I also had the opportunity to visit a police station to file a complaint. A client came to the law firm with a rather unfortunate case, so we accompanied the victim to file a formal complaint with the police. As many people may already know, filing a complaint with the police can be a time-consuming process. Handling a single complaint may take several hours, and in some cases, it can take up to ten hours because the police officers need to conduct an interview and record the statement. However, through my internship, I learned that the process can be made faster and that both the victim and our team can save time by preparing the information in advance, printing the relevant documents, and drafting a preliminary statement. This allows the police to gain an initial understanding of the case and proceed more quickly. I learned that preparing the information beforehand is extremely important. It not only helps speed up the process but also ensures that the details provided are complete.”
Q: What kind of case did you observe at the court?
A: “I went to court to observe the examination of witnesses in a defamation case. The two parties had previously been romantically involved. In this case, the man was the plaintiff who filed a lawsuit against the woman as the defendant. A well-intentioned person sent the man an audio recording of the woman’s conversation while she was being questioned by an investigation committee. This case made me more aware of the importance of communication. The fact that someone was able to send an audio recording made me realize that our conversations may be recorded, or that our voices may easily be altered and used in other ways. Therefore, I have become more careful about how I communicate.”
Wongsakorn Law Firm, led by Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, firmly believes that giving students the opportunity to learn through real-world work experience helps develop high-quality legal professionals for society in the future. The legal profession requires more than knowledge of written laws. It also requires practical experience, analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and the ability to work with people in real-life situations. Students who are interested in gaining legal work experience and learning closely about the work of lawyers may contact Wongsakorn Law Firm for further information and apply for an internship through the “Contact Us” channel.
Some people may have heard the term “back-calculating blood alcohol levels” from an insurance company after a traffic accident, especially when a breath alcohol test is conducted after the incident. However, many do not realize that providing false information—or being advised to write statements that do not reflect the truth for an insurance company—may result in losing insurance policy benefits or even lead to legal problems.
In this article, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri of Wongsakorn Law Firm shares a real case brought to him by an accident victim as a warning for consumers and all drivers. In this case, the victim almost lost their legal rights simply because they nearly followed incorrect advice, even though their rights could have been protected.
Real Case: The Victim Almost Lost Their Rights After Following Advice from an Insurance Company
The accident occurred at approximately 2:00 a.m. The victim was involved in a traffic accident, and the police later conducted a breath alcohol test at around 3:00 a.m.
After the accident, the victim contacted Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri through the LINE Official Account of Wongsakorn Law Firm for legal advice because the insurance company mentioned back-calculating blood alcohol levels and asked the victim to provide information about the time they had consumed alcohol.
When Lawyer Arm asked about the actual facts, the victim explained that they had finished drinking at around midnight.
However, when Lawyer Arm asked, “What did you write in the document?”
The answer immediately prompted Lawyer Arm to issue an urgent warning.
The victim said that an insurance company representative or insurance surveyor had advised them to write that:
They started drinking at 6:00 p.m.
They finished drinking at 8:00 p.m.
The accident occurred at 2:00 a.m.
even though these were not the actual facts.
Lawyer Arm’s Response: “A Disaster”
After hearing the information, Lawyer Arm immediately said:
“This is a disaster.”
The main reason is …
that providing information that does not match the actual facts may negatively affect the victim later.
Whether the information comes from the victim or from someone else’s advice, once the victim signs the document, it is considered information that they have certified.
Therefore, what should be done is:
Write only the actual facts.
Do not write what someone tells you if it is not true.
What Is “Back-Calculating Blood Alcohol Levels”?
The term “back-calculating blood alcohol levels” is commonly encountered in traffic accident cases.
In principle, it involves using the blood alcohol test result at the time of testing and analyzing it together with factual information, such as:
The time drinking began
The time drinking ended
The time the accident occurred
The time the alcohol test was conducted
Other scientific information
Each person’s body absorbs and eliminates alcohol differently. Therefore, there is no fixed formula that applies to everyone. For this reason, the facts regarding the drinking timeline are extremely important. If the information is incorrect from the beginning, the analysis may also be incorrect.
What Should You Do If Someone Advises You to Provide False Information?
In Lawyer Arm’s view, if any official advises a victim to provide information that does not match the actual facts, the victim should exercise extreme caution.
This is because, ultimately, the person responsible for the information in the document is the one who signs it.
Therefore, Lawyer Arm recommends:
Do not provide false information.
Read every document before signing.
If you have any doubts, do not sign it yet.
Consult a lawyer as soon as possible after the accident.
In some cases, if there are circumstances indicating that a victim was deceived into signing a false statement to benefit another person, the facts and legal rights involved may need to be examined on a case-by-case basis.
Drunk, but Almost Lost Their Rights
This case shows that the victim did not almost lose their rights simply because they had consumed alcohol.
They almost lost their rights because they believed advice that did not match the actual facts. Fortunately, the victim consulted the Lawyer Arm before taking any further action, making it possible to correct the course in time. This is why, after an accident, you should not rush to sign any document if you do not fully understand its contents.
Why Should You Have a Lawyer from the Day the Accident Happens?
Based on Wongsakorn Law Firm’s experience, many victims seek legal advice only after they have already signed documents. In many cases, correcting the situation is more difficult than preventing the problem from the beginning.
Lawyer Arm therefore emphasizes:
“When an accident happens, the first thing you should do is consult a lawyer.”
The reason is …
that insurance companies have legal teams, advisors, and specialists to provide guidance from the very beginning.
Meanwhile, many people have to make decisions on their own while they are in shock, worried, stressed, and unfamiliar with the law.
Having a lawyer from the beginning helps you understand your rights and reduces the risk of being disadvantaged by signing documents or providing information that may have negative consequences later.
Lawyer Arm’s Recommendations
If you are involved in a traffic accident and there is an issue concerning back-calculating blood alcohol levels, or if an official asks you to sign a document regarding your drinking timeline, you should:
Provide information based on the actual facts.
Do not sign any document you do not understand.
Read every document carefully before signing.
Take photos of every document.
Consult a lawyer as soon as possible if you have any questions about your rights or the legal consequences.
Cases involving back-calculating blood alcohol levels involve both factual and legal issues. Even a small inaccuracy in the information provided may affect the consideration of an insured person’s rights.
If you are facing issues involving a traffic accident, an insurance claim, or a dispute with an insurance company, do not wait until the situation becomes more serious. Wongsakorn Law Firm recommends consulting a lawyer from the day the accident occurs so that your case can be handled carefully and your rights can be protected step by step. In many cases, the right decision made in the first few hours can determine the outcome of the entire case.
In an era where smartphones can capture every moment of our lives with a single tap, cases involving leaked intimate videos and blackmailusing private photos or videos have become increasingly common. Such cases are particularly prevalent among students, university students, and working adults in romantic relationships. Many individuals trust their partners enough to allow intimate photos or videos to be taken. However, when the relationship ends, what was once a private memory can become a tool for extortion, financial blackmail, or coercion to resume the relationship.
Drawing on extensive experience handling such cases, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri of Wongsakorn Law Firm has found that these incidents often cause devastating harm to victims, affecting not only their mental well-being but also their reputation, education, career, and family life. By sharing the following case as a cautionary example, he hopes to raise public awareness and help others avoid becoming victims of similar situations.
While in love, everything may seem ordinary. Yet once the relationship comes to an end, that is often when the real problems begin.
Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri explained that many of the cases he has handled begin in almost exactly the same way. While the couple is still in a relationship, both parties trust one another and willingly take or record intimate photos or videos, believing that such content will never become a problem.
However, once the relationship ends, some individuals turn those private images or videos into tools of blackmail, using them to threaten the other party, demand money, or coerce them into resuming the relationship. Such conduct is not only unethical but may also constitute multiple criminal offenses under the law.
What is particularly concerning is that many victims blame themselves for what happened. In reality, the person who uses, threatens to disclose, or distributes another person’s private images or videos without consent is the one who may be held legally responsible.
The Case of a 19-Year-Old: The Investigation Began with an X Account and Ultimately Led to an Arrest Warrant.
One of the cases handled by Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri involved a 19-year-old female university student whose former boyfriend unlawfully distributed her intimate video online without her consent.
The investigation began after the video was discovered on an X account (formerly Twitter). Investigators then traced the account to associated Instagram profiles and other online platforms, connecting relevant digital evidence until the individuals involved could be identified.
Following the collection of evidence and close coordination with the police, the case ultimately resulted in the issuance of an arrest warrant for the suspect. Authorities are currently continuing their investigation to locate two additional individuals believed to be connected to the case.
This case demonstrates that many people mistakenly believe they can remain anonymous when posting content online. In reality, when digital evidence is properly collected and analyzed, law enforcement authorities are often able to trace online activities and pursue legal action against those responsible. A Leaked Intimate Video Is Not the End of Your Life. According to Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, his greatest concern is not merely whether legal proceedings can be pursued, but the emotional and psychological well-being of the victims.
There have been several heartbreaking cases in which young people, overwhelmed by threats from former partners to release their intimate photos or videos, experienced severe emotional distress and ultimately resorted to harming themselves.
Such tragedies should never happen.
If you are being threatened with the release of an intimate video or private images, remember this: you are not alone, and you still have legal avenues available to protect your rights.
Remaining calm, seeking legal advice from a qualified lawyer, and developing an appropriate legal strategy are far more effective than making impulsive decisions driven by fear or panic. Doing so can help safeguard your rights and prevent further harm.
Why Does Lawyer Arm Advise, “Don’t Rush to File a Police Report Yet”?
Many people may wonder, if someone is being blackmailed, why shouldn’t they report the matter to the police immediately?
According to Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, this advice does not mean that victims should refrain from reporting the crime. Rather, it means they should avoid taking legal action before developing an appropriate strategy. In many cases, victims report the incident immediately out of fear or panic without first preserving essential digital evidence, such as:
Chat conversations
Links to the published content
Website URLs
The date and time the content was posted
Proper screenshots
Evidence of threats or blackmail
Relevant user accounts or online profiles
Without adequate preparation, the perpetrator may become aware of the investigation, delete crucial evidence, or accelerate the public distribution of the intimate video, making it significantly more difficult for investigators to trace and preserve the digital evidence.
For this reason, consulting a lawyer and developing a legal strategy before filing a police report can help ensure that evidence is collected systematically and that the case is handled in a careful and effective manner.
The Cooperation of Law Enforcement Authorities Is Crucial.
In one case handled in Sakon Nakhon Province, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri expressed his sincere appreciation to the investigating officers of the Mueang Sakon Nakhon Police Station for their professionalism and close cooperation throughout the legal process.
Effective collaboration among the victim, legal counsel, and law enforcement authorities was instrumental in identifying the suspect, securing the necessary evidence, and ultimately obtaining an arrest warrant.
Cases involving leaked intimate videos and blackmail should not be viewed as battles that victims must face alone. With proper planning and effective coordination between lawyers and the police, the legal process can be carried out far more efficiently and effectively.
A Lesson for Everyone: Never Underestimate the Importance of Digital Privacy
Above all, never underestimate the importance of protecting your personal information in the digital age. Even if two people are deeply in love today, no one can guarantee what the future may hold.
Whenever possible, avoid creating or storing intimate photos or videos that could cause harm if disclosed in the future. Once such content exists in digital form, it can be copied, shared, or distributed at any time, and the consequences may be difficult—or even impossible—to fully reverse.
What Should You Do If You Are Threatened with the Release of an Intimate Video?
If your former partner or any other person is using your private photos or intimate videos to blackmail you, we recommend taking the following steps:
Stay calm, and do not panic or rush into filing a police report or making important decisions.
Do not delete any messages or other relevant evidence.
Preserve all conversations and digital evidence in their entirety.
Avoid responding emotionally or engaging in confrontational exchanges.
Consult a qualified lawyer before taking further action so that an appropriate legal strategy can be developed.
If you or someone close to you is facing a similar situation, you are welcome to contact Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri through our “Contact Us” page for legal advice. We will work with you to develop a carefully planned legal strategy aimed at minimizing harm and protecting your legal rights to the fullest extent possible.
When a road traffic accident occurs, most policyholders are familiar with the standard procedure of waiting for an insurance surveyor or claims adjuster to arrive at the scene to assess the damage and issue a document commonly referred to by the public as a “claim form,” which is then used to facilitate vehicle repairs or the filing of an insurance claim.
However, many people may not have noticed that some insurance companies include the following statement on their claim forms:
“Please contact the insurance company within 15 days to negotiate and agree on the repair costs and compensation for the damages.”
In addition, the claim form contains the following notice: “Important: This document is not a repair authorization.” Although consisting of only a few lines, this statement may cause many consumers to misunderstand their legal rights. In this article, Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri of Wongsakorn Law Firm invites members of the public and consumers to examine the issue from the perspectives of law and consumer rights, with the aim of helping them better understand their legal entitlements and avoid unnecessarily forfeiting their rights.
What Role Does the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC) Play in the Insurance Industry?
The Office of Insurance Commission (OIC) is the regulatory authority responsible for supervising and promoting the insurance industry. Its role is to ensure that insurance businesses operate in compliance with the law and to foster public confidence in the insurance sector.
In practice, however, when a road traffic accident occurs, an insurance company’s surveyor will inspect the circumstances of the accident and prepare the relevant documentation for reporting the damage in accordance with the company’s claims procedures.
Nevertheless, the assessment of damages, the determination of liability, and the payment of insurance indemnity must still be based on the facts of the case, the terms and conditions of the insurance policy, and the applicable laws. What Does the Statement “Please Contact the Insurance Company Within 15 Days to Reach an Agreement on the Repair Costs and the Amount of Damages” Mean? Based on Wongsakorn Law Firm’s practical experience, many members of the public and consumers mistakenly believe that if they fail to contact the insurance company within 15 days, they will immediately lose their right to claim compensation.
Such a misunderstanding may cause consumers unnecessary concern or prompt them to take action before they have fully understood their legal rights.
In the view of Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, this statement should be communicated more clearly to prevent the public from misunderstanding their legal rights. It is also important to distinguish between an insurance company’s internal claims procedures and a policyholder’s legal right to seek compensation, as these may constitute two separate legal issues. What Is an Insurance Claim Form?
A claim form, or damage assessment document, is a document issued by an insurance company after conducting a preliminary assessment of the damage. It is used to support the subsequent claims process or other related procedures.
However, the format and wording of such documents may vary from one insurance company to another.
Policyholders should therefore carefully read all the details before signing any document or taking any action based on it.
If any part of the document is unclear, they should seek clarification from the insurance company or obtain advice from a legal professional before proceeding.
Key Information Consumers Should Know After a Road Traffic Accident After a road traffic accident, it is important not only to have your vehicle repaired but also to protect your legal rights. This includes:
Obtaining copies of all relevant documents;
Carefully reading every statement on the insurance claim form;
Seeking clarification if any part of the document is unclear;
Preserving all evidence and records relating to the accident;
Reviewing the terms and conditions of your insurance policy.
Having a clear understanding of your legal rights from the outset can help minimize the risk of future disputes.
One key difference between insurance companies and consumers is that consumers often do not have legal representation.
Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri is of the view that one important difference between consumers and business organizations is that many organizations have in-house legal departments or legal counsel to provide ongoing legal support for their operations.
By contrast, most members of the public may be experiencing a road traffic accident for the first time and may therefore be unfamiliar with the procedures involved, their legal rights, or the legal implications of the documents they receive.
For this reason, obtaining relevant information or seeking advice from a legal professional before making important decisions is one way consumers can better protect their legal rights and interests.
What Should You Do If You Have Questions About Your Rights? If a policyholder has questions regarding:
the insurance claim form;
vehicle repairs;
a denial of liability;
the payment of insurance indemnity; or
any statements or wording contained in documents issued by the insurance company.
As a first step, you should seek clarification from the insurance company to ensure that you fully understand the relevant documents and procedures.
If you still have questions about your legal rights, or believe that the proposed course of action may affect your rights or interests, consulting a lawyer is another option. Doing so can help you better understand the applicable law and make informed and well-considered decisions. Purchasing insurance is not merely about paying insurance premiums. It also means understanding your rights and obligations when unexpected events occur.
In the view of Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, any wording on an insurance claim form that may cause consumers to misunderstand their rights should be communicated clearly and accurately. This helps ensure that members of the public can exercise their legal rights correctly and reduces the risk of losing those rights due to misunderstanding.

On 30 June 2026, Wongsakorn Law Firm held a certificate presentation ceremony for Ms. Patcharaporn Phosarat (Nesle), a student from the Department of East Asian Studies, Faculty of Arts, Silpakorn University, following the successful completion of her two-month professional internship. The certificate was presented by Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri, Managing Director of Wongsakorn Law Firm, in recognition of her dedication and achievements throughout the internship, while also encouraging her as she embarks on her future career path.
Throughout her internship, Nesle gained hands-on experience in the firm’s Corporate Communications Department, where she fully utilized her Chinese language skills. Her responsibilities included serving as a Chinese interpreter, assisting lawyers with Chinese-language matters, translating legal documents, translating articles for the firm’s website, and creating and updating Chinese-language content on Douyin to support communication with Chinese clients. These valuable practical experiences are difficult to acquire through classroom learning alone.
On the occasion, Lawyer Arm Supasit Sirishared the firm’s vision behind welcoming student interns. He noted that the continuous growth of Chinese investment and business activities in Thailand has significantly increased the demand for professionals who possess Chinese language proficiency and can apply those skills in the legal field. By offering internship opportunities, the firm aims to help develop high-quality talent equipped with practical experience and prepared to meet the evolving needs of the future job market and business sector.
Lawyer Arm Supasit Siri also shared a message with all students: “An internship is real work.” he emphasized that an internship is a valuable opportunity because it allows students not only to learn the practical aspects of their work but also to understand organizational culture, collaborate with colleagues, become familiar with office workflows, develop time management and a sense of responsibility, and adapt to a real working environment. These experiences help build resilience, strengthen professional readiness, and give students the confidence to enter the job market.
Wongsakorn Law Firm firmly believes that investing in the development of the younger generation is an important step toward cultivating high-quality professionals for both society and the legal profession in the future.
On 17 July 2026, Mr. Thanipat Manopat, a representative of Wongsakorn Law Firm, acting as the legal counsel for Yaoyao Infor Tech (Thailand) Co., Ltd., visited the company’s executives and staff to provide legal consultation on human resource management. He was accompanied by Ms. Amphon Chaisodsai, an intern from the Faculty of Liberal Arts, Chinese Language and Culture Program, Thammasat University, who served as the Chinese interpreter during the meeting. Her interpretation facilitated smooth and effective communication between both parties, allowing the discussion to proceed efficiently.
During the meeting, legal advice was provided on several key issues concerning employee termination, including the review and revision of the company’s work rules and regulations to ensure compliance with its business operations and Thai labor laws. In the afternoon, both parties also discussed approaches to determining wage structures and managing livestream employees, with the aim of ensuring that the company’s operations remain appropriate, legally compliant, and less vulnerable to future labor disputes.
The meeting was conducted in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with the company’s executives extending a gracious reception to the team. This reflected the strong relationship between Wongsakorn Law Firm and its client through its role as the company’s legal counsel. Rather than waiting for legal disputes to arise before seeking solutions, the company places great importance on legal planning as an integral part of its business operations, helping to prevent risks before they become problems.

This proactive approach enables the company to conduct its business with greater confidence, minimize legal risks, and serves as a valuable model for other organizations seeking sustainable and long-term growth.
