If You Are Looking for the Tongyeong Law Office
The client who visited the Tongyeong law office was charged with insult, but through the assistance of a Tongyeong attorney, the client was able to receive a suspension of sentencing.
Suspension of sentencing is a system under which the pronouncement of a sentence is deferred for a certain period for an offender who has committed a relatively minor crime, and once the period passes, the offender is deemed to have been acquitted of the charge.
While a suspended sentence applies to crimes carrying up to 3 years, suspension of sentencing applies to crimes carrying up to 1 year.
If you make insulting remarks about another person online, you may be subject to an actual sentence for the crime of insult.
Moreover, if you harm another's reputation, you may also face the crime of defamation.
For this reason, it is recommended to respond together with an attorney from the early stage.
