Lawyer in the canton of Thurgau

The canton of Thurgau has five districts, each with its own Bezirksgericht: Arbon, Frauenfeld, Kreuzlingen, Münchwilen and Weinfelden. Depending on the dispute, jurisdiction follows the defendant’s residence, the place of work or the location of the rented property. Amriswil belongs to the Arbon district, Aadorf to the Münchwilen district. A lawyer clarifies jurisdiction before you file.

Lawyers on ora. are entered in a cantonal register of lawyers, and ora. checks the entry before a profile goes public. Legal advisers without a register entry prove a Swiss law degree and are marked as such. Membership of the Thurgauischer Anwaltsverband, the cantonal bar association, is voluntary and does not replace the register entry.

Against a decision of the municipality or the canton, you must first use the remedy stated in the decision. The last cantonal instance in administrative matters is the Verwaltungsgericht des Kantons Thurgau, the administrative court, for example on building permits or residence permits. Deadlines are short. An administrative lawyer assesses the prospects of success.

Each practitioner sets their own fee, which you see on their profile before you book. ora.’s service fee is shown on a separate line, and you pay the practitioner directly. If you cannot afford proceedings, ask the competent court about legal aid.
