1. The Account of a Client Who Sought a Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney

This is the account of a client who sought a Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney.

The client says that about 20 years ago he met his wife through an acquaintance's introduction and filed a marriage report with the intention to marry.

After spending a happy time early in the marriage, he came to learn that his wife had remarried and that she had a former husband and a child between them.

However, the client concealed his disappointment and continued the marriage faithfully.

About two years later, the wife frequently said she would visit her parents' home and stayed away for two to three weeks at a time, and as this was repeated, from a certain day she became unreachable without any particular word to the client.

The client made every effort to find his wife but could not, and the wife had hidden herself so that the client could not find her.

Hoping that she might perhaps return, the client waited for more than about 15 years, and this long span of time passed.

The client was unable to confirm this directly with his wife, but he said it appeared that the wife had concealed everything from the client and cut off contact in order to reunite with her former husband and the children.

The Request of a Client Who Sought a Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney

The client explained that he had no way to contact his wife and was unsure whether it was possible to bring a divorce action given that the marriage had been maintained for 20 years.

The client asked the attorney to help him obtain a divorce judgment from his wife.

2. Divorce Litigation Explained by a Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney

The client of the Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney had a question about whether it was possible to file for divorce.

If there is a ground for judicial divorce under the Civil Act, a person may file a divorce action with the Family Court and claim a divorce.

Civil Act Article 840 (Grounds for Judicial Divorce) Either spouse may file a claim for divorce with the Family Court in any of the following cases:

1. If the spouse has committed an act of infidelity

2. If the spouse has maliciously deserted the other spouse

3. If one spouse has been extremely unfairly treated by the other spouse or that spouse's lineal ascendants

4. If one's own lineal ascendant has been extremely unfairly treated by the spouse

5. If it has been unclear for three years or more whether the spouse is alive or dead

6. If there is any other serious ground making it difficult to continue the marriage

The Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney decided to represent the client in the divorce action on the grounds of Article 840, subparagraphs 5 and 6, of the Civil Act.

3. Defense Undertaken by a Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney for the Client

Having been entrusted with the client's litigation authority, the Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney proceeded with the defense as follows.

Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney: “The Client's Wife Unilaterally Left Home Early in the Marriage”

The Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney emphasized that the client's wife had unilaterally left home early in the marriage and that the couple had then lived apart for a long period.

Even after losing all contact with his wife, the client continued to wait for her and did not file for divorce, but as that period reached 15 years, he came to file this divorce action.

Chuncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney: “The Marriage Between the Client and His Wife Has Effectively Broken Down”

The Chuncheon divorce litigation attorney emphasized that the marriage between the client and the client's wife had effectively broken down.

The client's wife in fact had a former husband and a child, and the client's wife appears to have cut off all contact with the client and reunited with her former husband, so the couple's marriage had broken down.
