1. The Client Who Sought a Jeju Real Estate Attorney
This is the story of a client who consulted a Jeju real estate specialist attorney.
The client entered into a jeonse lease agreement with the defendant, the landlord, for a jeonse deposit of 100 million won.
The client paid a down payment of five million won on the day of the contract, and paid the remaining deposit of 95 million won to the defendant on the move-in day.
After living in the home, the client notified the defendant three months before the end date of the lease agreement that the lease would be terminated due to the expiration of the contract.
However, the defendant continued to avoid contact, and he did not reply even to the client's incessant text messages.
Later, the client reached the defendant, but the defendant merely repeated that he could return the jeonse deposit only once he found a new tenant, and that the client should simply wait.
Since the client could not wait indefinitely, she sought out a Jeju real estate attorney and requested help in filing a lawsuit for the return of the deposit.
2. A Deposit Return Lawsuit Examined by a Jeju Real Estate Attorney
The client wished to file a lawsuit for the return of a deposit.
A lawsuit for the return of a deposit is a lawsuit filed to recover the deposit when, after the termination of a lease agreement, the landlord does not return the deposit to the tenant.
A lawsuit for the return of a deposit may proceed according to the following steps.
Termination of the lease agreement and notice of whether it is terminated > If the deposit is not returned, dispatch of a certified content notice and a lease registration order > Application for provisional attachment of property, filing of the lawsuit for the return of the deposit > Judgment > Compulsory execution > Return of the deposit
The Jeju real estate attorney decided to assist the client through every step of the process.
3. A Jeju Real Estate Attorney Assists the Client with the Case
The Jeju real estate attorney assisted the client in this case as follows.
Jeju Real Estate Attorney Sends a Certified Letter of Content
The Jeju real estate attorney first sent a certified content mail to the defendant.
Certified content mail refers to a special handling system in which, for a document sent by registered mail through a post office window, an information and communications network, or similar means, the post office certifies when and what content the sender sent to the recipient.
Certified content mail does not mean that the post office judges the content to be true, but the sender can have the fact of sending, the date of sending, and the fact of delivery certified.
Even after the certified content mail was sent, the client did not recover the deposit.
Jeju Real Estate Attorney Files a Deposit Return Lawsuit
The Jeju real estate attorney, having been authorized to handle the client's claim for return of the deposit, filed a complaint containing the following and brought the lawsuit.
1. The defendant shall pay the plaintiff 100,000,000 won.
2. The defendant shall bear the costs of the litigation.
3. Paragraph 1 may be provisionally enforced.
Because the lease agreement between the client and the defendant in this case terminated upon expiration of the contract term, the defendant has an obligation to return the deposit of 100,000,000 won to the client.
Result of the Jeju Real Estate Attorney's Assistance: Return of 100 Million Won
In the lawsuit filed by the Jeju real estate specialist attorney, the court rendered the following judgment.
1. The defendant shall pay 100,000,000 won to the plaintiff.
2. The costs of the litigation shall be borne by the defendant.
3. Paragraph 1 may be provisionally executed.
