1. How the Client Came to the Mokpo Law Office

Mokpo Law Office-Background

The client who came to the Mokpo Law Office was filed against for assault and requested assistance from the law office's Mokpo attorney.

The Circumstances Leading the Client to the Mokpo Law Office

The client who came to the Mokpo Law Office has a husband and a child.

However, the client, who was on bad terms with the husband, became separated and lived with the child in an apartment received from the husband.

Afterward, the in-laws suggested to the client that if the client found a buyer for this apartment, they would give the client a portion of the sale price so that the client could make a fresh start with the child.

Accordingly, the client found a buyer but did not receive the money from the in-laws.

In the end, the conflict with the in-laws grew and a fight broke out.

The brother-in-law, who was filming this from the side, filed a complaint against the client for assault.

The client, who was filed against, requested assistance from the Mokpo Law Office to defend against punishment.

Assault-Related Statutes Explained by the Mokpo Law Office

The Mokpo Law Office explained 🔗the crime of assault.

*Because the legal solution varies depending on an individual's situation, for details please consult with a 🔗Mokpo attorney at the Mokpo Law Office.

2. Matters of the Mokpo Law Office's Assistance

The Mokpo attorney, who conducted a thorough consultation with the client at the Mokpo Law Office, argued as follows.

Mokpo Law Office, Denial of the Assault

The Mokpo Law Office argued that the client did not commit any assault.

When the police arrived at the scene after receiving the report, the parties were not engaged in a physical altercation.

In addition, although there was a minor scuffle, the victim told the police that they had no intention of seeking punishment for it.

On this basis, the Mokpo Law Office emphasized that if the client had in fact committed an assault, the victim would not have said they had no intention of seeking punishment.

Mokpo Law Office, the Credibility of the Victim's Statement

The victim stated that they sustained an injury from the client's assault.

However, upon checking the medical certificate, it differed from the area where the client allegedly committed the assault, creating an inconsistency.

On this basis, the Mokpo Law Office argued that the medical certificate alone cannot establish whether an assault actually occurred.

In addition, the in-laws and the client had been on bad terms and had frequent disputes from before.

On this basis, it was also confirmed that the victim had made false statements, such as "the client threatened me without reason," in order to file a complaint against the client.

For these reasons, the Mokpo Law Office argued that the victim's statement lacked credibility.

3. Client Who Received a Fine With the Mokpo Law Office's Assistance

The client who visited the Mokpo Law Office was able to be sentenced to a minor fine in the assault case through the assistance of a Mokpo attorney.
