How the Client Came to the Incheon Attorney Office

In the end, the hospital reported the client on charges of interference with business and intimidation, and the client faced a police investigation.
To defend against punishment, the client came to the Incheon office and requested an attorney's assistance.
2. Statutes Relating to the Case, Provided by the Incheon Attorney Office
If a person interferes with business at another person's establishment, whether intentionally or with conditional intent, this may constitute interference with business.
If the charge is established, the person may be punished by imprisonment for not more than five years or a fine not exceeding fifteen million won.
As for intimidation, even if there was no direct act of violence against the other party, it may constitute intimidation if words caused the other party to feel fear and infringed on their freedom in forming their will.
Because interference with business and intimidation carry sentences that are by no means light, if you become implicated in such charges, you should respond legally without delay to establish your innocence or to argue for a reduction of sentence.
