Uijeongbu Real Estate Attorney Assistance | Lease Deposit Return Lawsuit Won With the Assistance of a Uijeongbu Real Estate Attorney

This is the account of the client who requested assistance.

Because of a job change, the client planned to move out of the jeonse home where the client had lived for several years.

The client notified the landlord of this, and the landlord agreed.

As the end date of the contract approached, the client, who was busy preparing to move, was told by the landlord that the deposit could not be returned until a new tenant moved in.

Because the client had made the intention to end the contract clear several times from a few months before the contract was to end, the landlord's statement was understandably bewildering.

When the dispute with the landlord did not end, the client decided to file a lawsuit and sought the assistance of a Uijeongbu real estate attorney.

🔗Lease Disputes

If a dispute arises between a lessor and a lessee, as in this case, it may be resolved through a lawsuit.

The client sought to file a lawsuit against the lessor who would not return the deposit.

The statutes related to leases are as follows.

In addition, a lawsuit may be pursued where there is fault on the part of the lessor, such as the following.

The real estate attorney team submitted, as evidence, the certified content mail the client had sent for the purpose of claiming the return of the deposit, along with the records of the conversations with the defendant.

With this evidence, the client demonstrated that the client had clearly stated the intention to end the contract several times in advance.

The attorney therefore argued that the defendant had an obligation to return the full amount of the deposit to the client.

The contract drawn up by the client and the defendant provided that the full amount of the deposit was to be returned upon delivery of the real estate.

In accordance with the contract, the client moved out of the property on the contract end date and completed delivery by giving the defendant the door code.

The attorney emphasized that the defendant, despite having received delivery of the property, was not honoring the terms of the contract and was not returning the deposit.

The case above was an instance in which the client was able to recover the full amount of the deposit with the assistance of a Uijeongbu real estate attorney.
