Daeryun Law Firm, a mid-sized domestic law firm, is showing solid growth based on client trust through a high success rate. We looked into the secret of growth of ‘Daeryun’, which recently expanded and opened offices in the southeastern region such as Busan, Daegu, Changwon, and Jinju and made a bid for a large law firm. ◆Focusing on the ‘thinking system’... From the joint legal defense system to communication at each branch. According to representative attorney Shim Jae-guk, ‘winning’ is the top priority to protect clients and guarantee legitimate rights. For this purpose, there is a ‘joint defense system’ that is applied internally. The joint defense system is to form a professional task force team according to the characteristics of the litigation case and establish a work flow chart to organize issues, supplement weaknesses, and verify argument logic. Professional lawyers, paralegals, and law clerks who are part of the team look at it from various perspectives and develop and apply response systems according to variables to derive strategies. ‘Branch-specific communication’ also attracts attention. Each regional office has established its own database to share cases accepted and provide feedback on precedents and defense strategies for similar cases. Accordingly, it is being evaluated that Daeryun has a specialized winning solution based on a system that can prevent lawyers from being subjectively buried in a case and accumulated know-how. ◆ Introducing ‘reverse mentoring’ for a flexible organizational culture. Representative attorney Dosim Jae-guk is also focusing on establishing a systematic system for the law firm and reforming the corporate culture. In order to put into practice the principle of “creating a flexible and quick decision-making organizational culture,” we are currently conducting a ‘Reverse Mentoring’ program in which general employees become mentors and executives become mentees. Reverse mentoring is an informal learning program in which seniors learn new knowledge and trends from juniors and receive inspiration, as opposed to traditional mentoring where seniors guide juniors. Through reverse mentoring held at the headquarters once a month, major agenda items of management meetings are freely discussed and market and customer trends are identified to supplement the overall competitiveness of the organization. In addition, changes were made to the work environment to increase employee productivity and encourage voluntary engagement. We are increasing employee satisfaction by improving work efficiency by minimizing meeting time, simplifying reporting procedures and administration, and eliminating unnecessary overtime and overtime. Currently, Daeryun Law Firm operates offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju, and has 17 lawyers.

Until now, sexual crimes are known to be one of the areas where it is difficult to determine whether coercion was committed, as many cases occur secretly between the victim and the perpetrator, and many cases occur between close friends. Due to the nature of sexual crimes, cases often occur in spaces where there are no witnesses or no CCTV, so objective facts and physical evidence, as well as evidence from the victim's statement, are important clues to the case. Jae-guk Shim, representative attorney at Daeryun Law Firm, said, "We recently won a case by defending the injustice of a client who was named as a defendant in a rape case. The victim in the case claimed that the defendant forcibly committed adultery with her body parts several times, but as a result of DNA testing, only the victim's DNA was detected on the victim's clothes." He then explained, "The victim's statement, including the route he took to the motel and the facts of the damage, lacked consistency in the investigative agency and the court, so we secured objective evidence to refute this. We identified false facts in the victim's claim through CCTV footage, text messages, physical evidence such as no traces left in the area where the victim said he was strongly pressed, and a doctor's opinion." The first trial court declared the defendant not guilty, saying, "It is difficult to admit the facts of the indictment in this case, and there is no proof of the crime." In the second trial that followed, the ruling was dismissed, saying, “There is no violation of the law in the misconception of facts claimed by the prosecutor.” Representative attorney Shim Jae-guk advised, “If you are unfairly accused of a sexual crime, it is important to try to prevent punishment with the help of a professional lawyer from the early stage without fearing that the fact will become known to those around you.” He also said, “Currently, Daeryun Law Firm (Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, “Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, Jeju) are providing legal counseling to protect the rights and interests of the legally vulnerable who are unable to respond appropriately due to ignorance of the law. In case of sexual crime cases, we have established a reliable initial response team to prove the innocence and provide relief to clients suffering from unfair stories, and are receiving good reviews from clients.” Reporter Lee Sang-yeon of the SME & Startup Team pond2580@ View original article - https://news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?mode=LSD∣=sec&sid1=101&oid=008&aid=0004274242

Since the recent abolition of the adultery law, lawsuits seeking compensation for damages against the spouse's adulterous woman and the adulterer have been increasing. In one case, Mr. A and Mr. B lived together for 3 years after holding a wedding ceremony without registering the marriage. Mr. A, who had irregular commuting times due to shift work, entered into an affair with Ms. C during the period of their common-law marriage. With the help of a lawyer, Ms. B collected and analyzed related videos, message records, recordings, and black box data that were advantageous to the lawsuit and submitted them as evidence, revealing that the common-law marriage relationship had broken down due to the misconduct of Mr. A and Ms. C. In addition, it was expressed that there is an obligation to compensate Ms. B for damages caused by the breakdown of her marriage. The court acknowledged Ms. B's claims and evidence, determined that the common-law marriage had broken down due to the culpable acts of Mr. A and Ms. C, and ruled in favor of the plaintiff, ordering A and Ms. C to pay alimony. This is the case of attorney Shim Jae-guk, who is serving as the representative divorce attorney at Daeryun Law Firm. He said, “If you find out that your spouse is an adulterer or an adulteress and prepare for a lawsuit, thorough preparation is necessary.” He added, “It is important to collect as much effective data as possible, such as videos, message records, and recordings, and to seek advice from a lawyer who has experience handling many divorce and domestic affairs lawsuits.” He also advised, "When calculating alimony, rather than unconditionally offering a high amount, alimony can only be recognized by proving the mental damage in detail and calculating the alimony based on objective data that can be persuasive. Since the key is how to prove it, reasonable costs and the help of a divorce lawyer with extensive experience in winning cases are more important than anything else." Daeryun Law Firm specializes in divorce, domestic affairs, criminal, and civil affairs and operates offices in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.

It has been more than a month since the Yoon Chang-ho Act, which strengthened the standards and punishment for drunk driving, went into effect. As a result, many people have been punished for drunk driving and various other incidents are occurring. According to Daeryun Law Firm, which operates with offices in Busan, Daegu, Changwon, and Jinju, an unusual case related to drinking was reported and made public. The client, who attended as a witness in an acquaintance's drunk driving case, was indicted for perjury of his testimony. The defendant (client) appeared in the Changwon District Court as a witness in the appellate trial of the road traffic law violation (drinking driving) case against Mr. A and took an oath. Then, he answered "yes" to the lawyer's question, "Has the witness ever walked with the defendant to the place where the defendant's car was parked on the day of the incident?" When asked by the defense attorney, “Did you ever walk with the defendant and then see the defendant get into his car?” he answered “yes”. Then, when asked by the defense lawyer “where did you ride?” he answered “I rode in the back seat.” However, in fact, Mr. A was driving while drunk and arrived at the accident site, and the defendant did not move with Mr. A on the sidewalk to the accident site where Mr. A’s car was parked, and Mr. A was on the sidewalk. I did not see him riding in the back seat of a car. Accordingly, the defendant was indicted for perjury by giving false testimony contrary to his memory as described above. Accordingly, the lawyer of Daeryun Law Firm actively pleaded not guilty, saying, "The defendant saw Mr. A lying on the bench and walked with Mr. A to the temporary parking lot. He said that he would rest for a while in his parked vehicle and returned home after seeing Mr. A get into the back seat of the vehicle. He did not know what happened after that, and testified in court as he remembered what happened at the time." The court was able to accept it. The defendant's testimony only extends to the fact that he saw Mr. A get into the back seat of his car, and does not address whether Mr. A drove while intoxicated afterwards. Therefore, it was determined that the fact that Mr. A was convicted of drunk driving was not direct evidence for the indictment of perjury in this case, and since the indictment in this case corresponds to a case where there is no proof of a crime, the defendant was declared not guilty in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Act. An official of Daeryun, a law firm registered with criminal specialist, civil specialist, divorce specialist, and domestic affairs specialist recognized by the Korean Bar Association, said, “This case, which started with the indictment of an acquaintance, was caused by a drunk driving conviction. In this case, the content that the client did not perjure has become a problem. Even if you are indicted, you can easily close the case by asking for advice from a professional without panicking.”

Recently, the number of common-law marriages living like real couples without registering their marriage is on the rise. A common-law marriage refers to a state of marriage in which the couple cannot be legally recognized as a marriage because they have not registered the marriage legally, but is actually in a marital relationship. Whether a common-law marriage or a legal marriage, when the marital relationship is recognized, various rights are granted along with obligations such as cohabitation, support, cooperation, and chastity. So, what rights can be guaranteed if the relationship ends after continuing through a common-law marriage? Shim Jae-guk, CEO of Daeryun Divorce Law Firm, said, “Like a legal marriage spouse, a common-law spouse can file a lawsuit for property division and alimony against the other spouse when the common-law marriage is dissolved. However, since kinship does not occur in a common-law marriage, inheritance rights do not arise even if the common-law spouse dies.” However, there are requirements for establishing a common-law marriage in order to divide property and claim alimony. There must be a mutual intention to marry, and both the man and the woman must register and live together in the same house, take care of each other's family events, introduce each other as spouses to people around them, etc., so they must not only have registered the marriage, but have actually built a relationship as a couple. However, unlike a legal marriage, a common-law marriage divorce lawsuit must first prove whether the marriage is common-law. Attorney Shim Jae-guk said, “Unlike a legal marriage divorce trial, the priority is to collect evidence that can prove the common-law marriage relationship. This is because most cases deny the common-law marriage relationship and claim that it was a simple cohabitation relationship in order to avoid dividing property and alimony to the other party.” He said, “The division of property in a common-law marriage depends on the common-law relationship and how contribution is proven, and the common-law marriage alimony depends on the common-law relationship and how the other party’s fault for the divorce is proven. If you proceed hastily, the lawsuit itself may be dismissed due to failure to prove the common-law relationship, so we recommend that you get help from a professional lawyer who has handled many divorce and domestic affairs lawsuits.” He advised. Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, of which Attorney Shim Jae-guk is the representative attorney, is an active law firm that operates a divorce team in Busan divorce lawyers as well as in Seoul, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, Suwon, Changwon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Uijeongbu, Chuncheon, Jinju, and Jeju.
