The Jinju divorce specialist attorney argued that, looking at the marriage between the client and the defendant, the defendant had not made active efforts to restore the relationship.

The defendant repeatedly insulted and disregarded the client, and is currently estranged from the home.

Because the defendant did not provide living expenses, the client had to earn an income alone and bear the living expenses.

The divorce specialist attorney emphasized that, even though there was a child to raise, the defendant engaged in irresponsible conduct such as taking out loans and increasing the debt.

During the marriage, the defendant frequently stayed out overnight and increased the debt, showing indifference toward raising the child.

The Jinju divorce specialist attorney argued that, because the client was bearing the child-rearing and living expenses alone in place of the defendant, the client should hold parental authority and custody of the child, and that the defendant should provide regular child support.

The client, who came to a Jinju divorce specialist attorney, visited Daeryun in order to divorce the defendant and obtain custody and parental authority.

Through the assistance of the Jinju divorce specialist attorney, the client was able to obtain parental authority, custody, and even child support from the defendant.
