1. The Client Who Sought a Seoul Criminal Law Specialist Attorney

The client who came to the Seoul criminal attorney visited Daeryun's Seoul branch office, stating that he was under suspicion of larceny.

The client said that he needed a defense against punishment.

The criminal attorney set about understanding the case in order to defend the client against punishment.

While working on company business, the client went to a stationery store near the office to buy a needed item.

While choosing items at the stationery store, he received an urgent call, and without a moment to think, he rushed out.

After handling the matter, he realized that an unpaid item from the stationery store was in his pocket.

He intended to return the item after work, but as he stayed busy with various matters, he reportedly forgot about it.

A few days later, he received a call from the police asking whether he had taken an item from the stationery store, and being flustered, the client failed to properly explain that he still had the item.

2. The Charge Against the Client of the Seoul Criminal Law Specialist Attorney

Although the client of the Seoul criminal attorney had no intention of stealing the item, he ultimately took it and thereby caused harm to the stationery store, so the client came under suspicion of 🔗larceny.

Article 329 of the Criminal Act (Larceny) A person who steals another's property shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than six years or by a fine not exceeding 10 million won.

The client of the Seoul attorney faced the risk of being punished, under the Criminal Act, by imprisonment for not more than six years or by a fine not exceeding 10 million won.

3. The Seoul Criminal Law Specialist Attorney's Assistance to the Client

The Seoul criminal attorney provided assistance as follows in order to spare the client from the risk of punishment.

Seoul Attorney, Emphasizing That the Client Reached a Settlement with the Victim

The client of the Seoul criminal attorney conveyed a sincere apology to the victim for having taken the item.

In addition, the client paid a settlement amount, and the victim, stating that he did not wish for the client to be punished, prepared a settlement agreement and a statement of no desire for punishment.

Seoul Attorney, Emphasizing That the Client Is Remorseful

The client of the Seoul criminal attorney deeply reflects on his conduct and feels ashamed that such a wrong led to his being investigated.

The client sincerely repents of having caused harm to the victim through this mistake.

Seoul Attorney, Emphasizing That There Is No Risk of Reoffending by the Client

The client of the Seoul criminal attorney has lived diligently as a member of society and as a father devoted to his family.

Although the client did commit a wrongful act on this occasion, he has ordinarily lived with consideration for others and will continue to do so.

Seoul Attorney, Emphasizing That the Client's Income Is Not Insignificant

The household of the Seoul criminal attorney's client is a dual-income family, and because the client's tenure of employment is very long, the household income is not small.

In this case as well, the client merely took the item by mistake, and there is no concern that he would repeat the same wrong.

Seoul Attorney, Emphasizing That the Client's Family Members Are Submitting Petitions

The family members of the Seoul criminal attorney's client state that the client worked diligently and with greater responsibility than anyone else and was a head of household faithful to his family, and they plead for leniency on this one occasion, pledging that they will watch over him so that a wrong such as this case is not repeated.
