1. The story of the client who received a Cheonan attorney referral
The client, who received a Cheonan attorney recommendation, was in a situation in which he faced a criminal trial on five charges, including 🔗larceny / theft, special (aggravated) theft, nighttime residential burglary, attempted nighttime residential burglary, and attempted special (aggravated) theft.
Wishing to avoid a custodial sentence at the very least given the multiple charges, he received a recommendation of an attorney in the city of Cheonan and came to the Daeryun Cheonan office.
Cheonan attorney ascertains the circumstances of the client's case
The Daeryun Cheonan attorney examined the circumstances of the case in detail in order to establish a defense strategy tailored to the client.
The client, who resides in Cheonan, suffered from severe financial hardship, and ultimately resolved to commit theft and other acts in order to obtain living expenses.
The client intruded into a shop in the city of Cheonan and stole property.
In this process, having intruded into the shop with a box cutter and other items that he had carried in advance, he was indicted on charges including special (aggravated) theft and nighttime residential burglary.

2. Daeryun's assistance for the client referred to a Cheonan attorney
In order to seek a reduction of sentence for the client, Daeryun set the direction of its pleading around the facts that the client acknowledged the charged facts, was making efforts toward recovery for the victims, and had no record of the same type of offense.
Assistance for the referred client 1. Argument of severe financial hardship
On behalf of the client, Daeryun argued that he had been experiencing severe financial hardship.
The client, who resides in Cheonan, was an upstanding young man living with and supporting his elderly parents, who had no earning capacity.
Recently, however, after the client was dismissed from his job, the family of three fell into severe financial hardship.
Unable to pay the monthly rent and facing the risk of eviction, the client committed the offense in order to raise the rent money, having no other choice.
The Daeryun Cheonan attorney argued that the client, suffering from severe financial hardship, had committed an act that he should not have committed.
The Cheonan attorney also emphasized that the client was deeply remorseful and regretful.
Assistance for the referred client 2. Argument of efforts toward recovery of the harm
On behalf of the detained client, the client's parents visited the store themselves and made efforts toward recovery for the victims.
The victims accepted the apology of the client and his parents, reached a settlement, and expressed their wish that the client not be punished.
3. The client who received a Cheonan attorney referral successfully secures a suspended sentence
With Daeryun's assistance, the client received a suspended sentence.
Although the repeated acts of theft and the multiple charges could have resulted in a heavy punishment, with the assistance of the Daeryun Cheonan attorney an actual (custodial) sentence was avoided.
As with the client in the case above, if you become involved in multiple charges, it is most important to establish an optimal defense strategy so that the sentence can be mitigated as much as possible.
Daeryun Law Firm forms a dedicated team of attorneys for the client's case and presents a defense strategy tailored to the circumstances.
