1. The Client Who Sought an Incheon Defamation Attorney
The client who sought an Incheon defamation attorney asked that the offender be subjected to heavy punishment, stating that she had suffered defamation and interference with business.
The account the Incheon defamation attorney reviewed was as follows.
The client ran a small restaurant in her neighborhood and was in the middle of divorce litigation with her husband.
On the day of the incident, however, the husband's mother, that is, the client's mother-in-law, came to the restaurant and shouted that the client had committed adultery and was therefore divorcing her son.
She not only continued to hurl abuse at the client but also spread false statements about the client to the other employees working at the restaurant.
The client politely asked the mother-in-law to leave, but she did not leave for several tens of minutes, and she left the restaurant only after a security guard was dispatched.
The client therefore sought an Incheon defamation attorney, asking that the mother-in-law be punished on charges of defamation, interference with business, and refusal to leave.
