Strengthening Daeryun Medical Litigation Group... “All-round support available, including medical litigation and operational consulting.”
Attorney Lee Jae-yoon, graduated from the College of Pharmacy and the Medical Dispute Mediation Service as an examiner... Lawyer Seo-Hyung Lee, a medical expert with a pharmacist's license who also has expertise in the healthcare field, including pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, said, “The ability of a lawyer in charge of medical litigation in the early stages is most important... A scale capable of providing advice on the operation of hospitals and clinics.” Recently, as the scope of medical litigation has become more diverse, the need for medical lawyers is increasing. Professional legal advice is being demanded not only for simple medical malpractice lawsuits, but also for various legal issues such as hospital business suspension, office manager hospitals, assault on medical personnel, and administrative dispositions. In line with this trend, 'Daeryun Medical Litigation Group' is taking systematic action to respond to various medical disputes, led by attorney Kyung-rok Oh, a former judge specializing in medical litigation. In addition, it is accelerating the recruitment of talented individuals with professional licenses to provide legal services. Attorney Jae-yoon Lee, who recently joined the medical litigation group, is considered a talented person with abundant practical experience. After graduating from the Department of Oriental Pharmacy at the College of Pharmacy, he obtained a license as an herbal pharmacist and worked for a long time as an examiner at the Medical Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Center. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon said, "Thanks to my intensive study of the human body and drugs in college, I am handling medical litigation smoothly. As an examiner, I have handled over 400 medical cases. At Daeryun, I have the experience of thinking deeply about why medical institutions and patients are in conflict and what the solution is. “It seems to be shining,” he said. Attorney Seo-Hyung Lee, another member of the medical litigation group, is also a medical expert with a pharmacist’s license. Attorney Lee worked as a senior researcher at Seoul National University's Law Research Institute and as a research professor at Ewha Womans University's Biomedical Law Research Institute. Attorney Lee has also served as a member of the Institutional Bioethics Committee and Data Review Committee at several university hospitals, and is also prominent in the healthcare field, such as health care, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. Attorney Seohyung Lee said, "I was responsible for reviewing whether clinical research was conducted legally and whether personal information was properly protected during the process." He added, "In addition, government agencies. He said, "I have solidified my position as a medical lawyer by providing advice on medical law." He added, "Recently, medical litigation has gone beyond simple disputes between doctors and patients, and includes various fields such as pharmaceutical law, medical device law, and bioethics law." He explained, "We are focusing on providing comprehensive medical solutions." When asked about the special strengths of the Daeryun Medical Litigation Group, attorney Seo-hyeong Lee chose "speed." Due to the nature of medical litigation, which takes at least a year due to the difficult verification process, the stress experienced by clients is bound to increase, so lawyer Lee emphasized that he is working hard to proceed quickly with litigation. In fact, Daeryun Medical Litigation Group is collaborating with the Digital Forensics Group to quickly collect the necessary evidence, and has formed a task force with experts in various fields to respond to each legal procedure, such as identifying facts and applying for appraisals. In addition, it is collaborating with affiliated experts such as accountants, tax accountants, and labor attorneys to provide medical services to hospitals and clinics. It is also excellent at providing general legal advice on operations and has currently entered into MOUs with a number of hospitals and clinics. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon cited Daeryun's 'accessibility' as an advantage. He explained that you can apply for consultation through branch offices located throughout the country, and if necessary, you can also communicate directly with a professional lawyer through a video system. Unlike general cases, medical lawsuits are not easy to win, so they come with significant hardships. Therefore, the sense of accomplishment when receiving a favorable judgment in a difficult situation is bound to be special. Attorney Seohyung Lee said that he will never forget the experience of winning a lawsuit worth 1.2 billion won by carefully preparing medical records and physical evaluations. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon said that the most memorable case was the case in which he took on a case that lost in the first trial, corrected a terminological error in an important concept, and led to a victory through re-appraisal. In the case of medical litigation, the help of a professional lawyer with abundant practical experience is essential, but in the actual field, there are many people who are reluctant to pursue medical litigation. This is because long litigation periods and high litigation costs are a hindrance. Attorney Lee Jae-yoon explained, "In the case of the Medical Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Board, it does not have the authority to make a compulsory ruling, so if there is a large difference in the positions of both sides, it is much more efficient to proceed with litigation immediately." He added, "In particular, in the case of medical litigation, there are many parts that are not carried out in other litigation, such as evaluation procedures, so the capabilities of an experienced professional lawyer are more important than anything else." Attorney Seo-hyung Lee also said, "Early response is the most important in medical litigation as well." “It is advisable to proceed with the dispute efficiently with the help of a medical lawyer from the beginning,” he added.
