School violence attorney case example | The school violence attorney defends a juvenile trial arising from assault and obtains a protective disposition of Types 1 and 2

The client who came to the school violence attorney was a middle school student facing a juvenile trial on the ground of having assaulted a school friend.

After entering middle school, the client grew rapidly in physique and found it difficult to become close with his school friends.

In the meantime, he maintained a relationship with a friend with whom he had grown close while attending the same academy, joking around and even hitting each other.

However, that friend claimed that he had suffered verbal and physical assault from the large-built client's rough behavior.

Accordingly, the client, who came to face a juvenile trial for assault, visited Daeryun wishing to obtain the assistance of a school violence attorney and to defend the trial.

The school violence attorney also explained in detail to the client, who was facing a juvenile trial, the levels of protective disposition.

Under Article 32 of the Juvenile Act, where the juvenile division judge, as a result of the hearing, recognizes that a protective disposition is necessary, the judge shall by decision impose one of the dispositions falling under any of the following subparagraphs.

1. Entrustment to the custody of a guardian or a person who can protect the juvenile in place of a guardian

2. An attendance order

3. A community service order

4. Short-term probation by a probation officer

5. Long-term probation by a probation officer

6. Entrustment to a child welfare facility under the 「Child Welfare Act」 or another juvenile protection facility

7. Entrustment to a hospital, a sanatorium, or a medical rehabilitation juvenile reformatory under the 「Act on the Treatment of Protected Juveniles」

8. Referral to a juvenile reformatory for up to one month

9. Short-term referral to a juvenile reformatory

10. Long-term referral to a juvenile reformatory

The school violence attorney argued that the client had voluntarily completed school violence prevention education in order to prevent any recurrence of school violence.

The client sincerely apologized to the friend who had been hurt by his wrongful conduct and was deeply remorseful.

While completing the special education program, the client once again realized the seriousness of school violence.

The school violence attorney emphasized that the client's guardian also planned to provide thorough guidance in order to prevent school violence.

The school violence attorney argued that the client was an ordinary student who usually spent his school life quietly.

The client was reflecting on his wrongful conduct, saying that joking around as an expression of closeness had gone too far.

He also visited the friend who had been harmed and consistently sought forgiveness and made efforts toward a settlement.

The school violence attorney emphasized that there was almost no possibility of the client reoffending and pleaded for leniency.

The school violence attorney assembled a case team of experienced school violence attorneys to defend the client, who had committed assault, in the juvenile trial and provided assistance throughout the entire proceedings.

The attorney pleaded for leniency, asserting the client's efforts to prevent reoffending and the continuous guidance provided by the client's guardian.

As a result, the court accepted the school violence attorney's arguments and imposed on the client protective dispositions of Types 1 and 2, corresponding to entrustment to the guardian's protective custody and an order to attend a course.
