The Thailand Law Forum is a non-profit web site that strives to provide the English-speaking public with a free, unbiased and up-to-date source of information about Thai law. The Thailand Law Forum was founded in 1997 by a group of American and Thai law professors to address the need for English language materials about Thailand law and legal issues. The major works of the Thailand Law Forum are the publication of the bi-annual Thailand Law Journal, an online journal that features important legal scholarship by prominent Thai and international academics concerning Thailand law, and the Thailand Law Database, a virtual collection of the Thai laws and treaties that are of particular interest or relevance to the international community.

The Thailand Law Forum also publishes English language summaries of Thailand Supreme Court Opinions. The third volume of collected Supreme Court opinions includes decisions on inheritance, trademarks and intellectual property, consent in marriage and employment.

Be sure to check out the 2006 Spring Edition of the Thailand Law Journal. The authors, Thailand law professors and a Thailand Judge of the Civil Court, engage in issues of globalization and its consequences for Thailand law. Jutharat Ua-amnoey considers the emergence of the restorative justice trend in Thailand. In his article, Jurisdiction of Electronic Transaction in Thailand, Sangsit Narintarangkul Na Ayudhyaya, demonstrates the ambiguities of existing principles of jurisdiction when applied to electronic transaction cases. Prasit Pivavatnapanich traces and analyzes the development of private international law, or Common Law, in Thailand.
