Uijeongbu Criminal Attorney Assistance Case | Prevailing in a School Violence Case by Establishing the Cause of Death With the Assistance of a Uijeongbu Criminal Attorney

The client who came to the Uijeongbu criminal attorney wished to establish that the cause of her daughter's death was school violence and to proceed with a criminal complaint.

After the client's daughter transferred to an arts and athletics school in pursuit of her dream, she showed signs of anxiety and depression, and bruises and injuries even appeared on her body.

Worried about this, the client asked her daughter whether she was perhaps being subjected to school violence, but the daughter only answered that nothing was wrong and that she was fine.

Then, one day, the client's daughter took her own life without even leaving a note, and the client was convinced that the cause was school violence, but there was no clear physical evidence.

The client therefore requested digital forensics in order to secure evidence of the school violence, and she came to Daeryun's Uijeongbu criminal attorney in order to proceed with a criminal complaint against the offending student.

The Uijeongbu criminal attorney requested cooperation from the Digital Forensics Center in order to establish that the reason for the death of the client's daughter was school violence.

The Daeryun Digital Forensics Center sought to identify the precise cause of death by conducting forensics on the mobile phone used by the client's daughter.

As a result of analyzing all of the data, including call records, message records, chat applications, and personal social media accounts, evidence proving the school violence was found.

Daeryun's Uijeongbu criminal attorney then proceeded with assistance in filing a complaint against the offending student involved in the school violence.

Through the evidence secured by digital forensics, the Uijeongbu criminal attorney argued that the client's daughter had died as a result of severe school violence.

By conducting forensics on the mobile phone of the client's daughter, the attorney found, through the contents of messages with her classmates at the time, the incident that became the cause of the death.

Based on that incident, the attorney organized a timeline and analyzed the relationships among all of the members of the class to identify the student who had committed the school violence.

The Uijeongbu criminal attorney submitted the discovered evidence and the digital forensics report as evidence in the school violence litigation.

The client who came to the Uijeongbu criminal attorney wished to secure evidence establishing that the cause of her daughter's death was school violence and to proceed with a criminal complaint.

In response, Daeryun's Uijeongbu criminal attorney assembled a team composed of attorneys with extensive experience in school violence litigation and assisted with the overall procedures of the case.

In addition, the attorney requested assistance from the Daeryun Digital Forensics Center, which has the same analytical equipment and programs as investigative agencies, and secured solid evidence.

As a result, the court accepted Daeryun's arguments and issued a disposition referring the offending student to the juvenile court, and the client was able to prevail in the case.
