1. The Client's Situation
This is the story of the client who came to the Daegu DUI attorney. The client explained that they had ridden a motorcycle while under the influence in downtown Daegu, caused an accident, and inflicted injuries requiring six weeks of treatment on the victim,
and that, facing the risk of criminal punishment, the client visited Daeryun in search of a large law firm that could prepare a response strategy suited to them.
The details of the client's case, as reviewed by the Daegu DUI attorney, were as follows.
The client was a day laborer who, after finishing work, came to have drinks with a meal alongside colleagues.
The place where the client ate was not far from home, so with a complacent attitude the client decided to ride their own motorcycle home.
Driving while intoxicated, the client could not make proper judgments, ran a signal while going straight, and collided with the motorcycle of the victim, who was making a left turn.
The victim sustained injuries requiring six weeks of treatment, and the client's blood alcohol concentration, measured by the responding police officer, was 0.21%.
The client was in a situation where they faced the risk of criminal punishment as a result of this incident.

3. The Daegu DUI Attorney's Defense for the Client
The Daegu DUI attorney set about defending the client as follows.
Daegu Drunk Driving Attorney: “The Client Poses No Risk of Reoffending”
The client sustained injuries to his ribs and across his body from the accident in this case.
As a result, the client reached a condition in which he is effectively unable to ride a motorcycle again.
The attorney pointed to this circumstance to emphasize that the client poses no risk of reoffending.
Daegu Drunk Driving Attorney: “The Victim Forgave the Client”
After the incident, the client sincerely sought the victim's forgiveness.
He also paid a settlement amount to provide at least some monetary compensation for the harm, and after receiving it, the victim forgave the client and expressed that he did not wish for the client to be punished.
The attorney requested leniency for the client, taking into account this forgiveness by the victim.
4. The Judgment Achieved by the Daegu Drunk Driving Attorney
After hearing the attorney's arguments, the court issued the following judgment.
However, the execution of the above sentence is suspended for two years from the date this judgment becomes final.
The client had not only committed the offense of drunk driving but also the offense of dangerous driving causing injury by injuring a person while intoxicated, so a very severe punishment was anticipated.
However, with the attorney's assistance, it was possible to defend against criminal punishment and conclude the case with a suspended sentence.
