Wonju Legally Reserved Portion Attorney Case | A Wonju Attorney Claims the Legally Reserved Portion and Has 290 Million Won Granted

The circumstances of the client's case, as understood by the attorney, are as follows.

When the client's mother passed away, the client confirmed that the mother's inheritance share had gone to the stepsiblings.

Although the client had been responsible for the mother's care all along, she could not help feeling aggrieved that the stepsiblings had taken the inheritance.

In particular, the stepsiblings claimed the inheritance on the ground that they had provided the care. In response, the client resolved to file a legal claim and sought out a Wonju legally reserved portion attorney.

The legally reserved portion is a legal right under which a certain part of the inherited estate must be left to an heir.

In other words, there is a minimum inheritance share that is guaranteed by law to those who inherit, regardless of the deceased's intentions.

If a legal right is infringed in the course of inheritance, it may be recovered through a claim for return of the legally reserved portion.

A 🔗lawsuit for return of the legally reserved portion is a lawsuit under the Civil Act to secure a certain part of the inheritance share for a statutory heir.

To pursue this, you must first confirm whether you have the right to claim a legally reserved portion.

Those who may claim a legally reserved portion are the decedent's lineal descendants, spouse, and lineal ascendants, among whom lineal descendants may claim a legally reserved portion as the first priority.

The exact amount of the legally reserved portion must be calculated by comprehensively considering the inherited estate, the amount of gifts, inheritance debts, and other factors.

The attorney established that the defendant (the client's stepsibling) had already received real estate as a gift from the deceased mother before her death, and on that basis argued that the defendant was a special beneficiary.

The attorney strongly argued that, because the defendant had acquired property exceeding this special-benefit share at the time of inheritance, the client's legally reserved portion had been infringed.

This is a case in which a client whose legally reserved portion had been infringed sought out a 🔗Wonju attorney for legal assistance.
