This is the account of a client who sought an attorney's assistance, saying that a complaint for intimidation was needed.

The client explained that she was being threatened and stalked by a former partner and pleaded to be rescued from this living nightmare.

The attorney set out to understand the case in order to resolve the client's matter.

Complaint for Intimidation

The client explained that she had been in a relationship with the former partner for about ten years, then broke up due to differences in personality, and has since met a good person, started a family, and has two children.

However, the former partner had continually demanded that they get back together, even before the client married her current husband.

Unable to withstand the persistent contact, the client met with the former partner several times even after her marriage.

After that, the former partner threatened to tell the client's husband everything, so she had no choice but to meet whenever the former partner demanded.

In addition, when the client did not answer, the former partner left hundreds of messages or came to her home, engaging in stalking.

Troubled by this, the client could no longer endure it and sought an attorney's assistance to file a complaint for intimidation.
