1. The Client's Situation

The client intended to file a divorce suit against her husband and sought an attorney with extensive experience in divorce-related cases in Daejeon.

The client wished to seek not only a divorce judgment but also consolation money and past child support. Her account was as follows.

The client explained that she had met her husband thirty years earlier, registered their marriage, and had two children.

However, fifteen years earlier her husband had absconded without a word, and she had been completely unable to learn his whereabouts thereafter.

The client raised the children and held down a job to make a living while remaining out of contact with her husband.

During that time, loan sharks from whom her husband had borrowed money came to the client's home and caused disturbances.

Because her husband had left her and the children without any legitimate reason and had caused harm such as having loan sharks come to her home, the client came to the Daejeon divorce attorney in order to sever this unfortunate tie through a divorce judgment.

Divorce Procedures Explained by the Daejeon Divorce Attorney

If you wish to obtain a divorce judgment, you may use divorce by agreement, divorce by conciliation, or judicial divorce.

Divorce by agreement is the simplest method and is the procedure followed where both spouses have agreed on the terms of the divorce.

Divorce by conciliation involves undergoing a fact-finding inquiry by the family court and then a conciliation procedure, and if conciliation is reached in this process, a divorce judgment may be obtained.

If no agreement is reached even after the conciliation procedure, the procedure that follows is judicial divorce, which proceeds in the following order.

Application for divorce by conciliation > Family court conciliation > Claim for judicial divorce if conciliation fails > Oral argument > Judgment > Report of divorce

An application for divorce by conciliation must be filed before a claim for judicial divorce,

but where one or both spouses cannot be summoned except by service by public notice, or where it is recognized that conciliation could not be reached even if the divorce case were referred to conciliation, a claim for judicial divorce may be made without the divorce-by-conciliation procedure.

3. The Divorce Suit Filed by the Daejeon Divorce Attorney

The Daejeon divorce attorney's client did not even know whether her husband was alive or dead, so she was in a situation where he could not be summoned except by service by public notice.

Accordingly, the Daejeon divorce attorney, having been delegated the client's authority, filed the divorce suit as follows.

The client's husband had maliciously deserted the client under the second statutory ground for judicial divorce.

The marriage between the client and her husband had broken down from the moment the husband abandoned his duty to support his spouse and children and left home.

This conduct caused the client severe emotional distress, and she suffered economic hardship while raising the children alone and making a living.

Accordingly, the Daejeon divorce attorney requested a judgment ordering that the client and her husband be divorced and that the husband pay the client 10 million won in consolation money and 21.5 million won in past child support.

4. The Divorce Judgment Led by the Daejeon Divorce Attorney

Having heard the Daejeon divorce attorney's arguments, the court issued a judgment ordering that the client and her husband be divorced and that the husband pay the client 10 million won in consolation money and 21.5 million won in past child support.

Not only that, the court also ordered that the husband bear all of the costs incurred in this litigation.

The client expressed her deep gratitude that she was able to be compensated for her emotional distress and to receive past child support as well.

Why You Need a Daejeon Divorce Attorney

The Daejeon divorce attorney has extensive experience in divorce suits, including cases similar to this client's, and presents strategies suited to each case.

In addition, depending on the matter, a task force of three to twenty legal professionals, such as civil attorneys and an evidence-gathering and digital forensics group, may be assembled to obtain a favorable result for the client.

In a divorce suit, it is very important to prove, through solid evidence, that the other party is responsible for the grounds for divorce.
