What legal assistance can I seek after receiving a harsh one-year prison sentence in Thailand?

Hello everyone,

I have been facing serious legal challenges that have left me feeling trapped and in distress.

Recently, I was involved in a legal matter that resulted in a harsh penalty 1 years prison instead of similar case is just a fine, which I believe was unjust due to multiple violations of my rights throughout the process. I have experienced threats, physical harm, and coercion that have significantly affected my well-being and much more, give me my sentence only after tell me to say no for a lawyer, i said 2 word during the court hearing who take less than 2 min. This is my first offense, and I have a clean criminal record, i paid the fees damages but one of them was know by the judge.

Currently, I have to make appealing the decision, but I am deeply concerned about the possibility of being stuck in Thailand for 6 months to a year without the ability to work or support myself here. This situation is not only financially burdensome but also mentally challenging, as I fear for my safety and psychological well-being. They also dont allowed to me to leave the country i cannot leave there.

I am looking for any advice on how to navigate this situation, particularly:

• Recommendations for legal assistance or NGOs that can help with my case.

• Any contacts or resources within expatriate groups that may provide guidance.

• Suggestions for how to resolve these issues amicably before my appeal.

I appreciate any support or information you can provide. Thank you for taking the time to read my message.
