Cheonan Law Firm Assistance Case | A Successful Claim for 15 Million Won in Divorce Consolation Money

While searching for a law firm to assist in filing a claim for divorce and related relief, the client came to Daeryun's Cheonan office and requested a detailed consultation.

1. The Client Who Sought a Cheonan Law Firm

Cheonan Law Firm

Wishing to resolve the matter together with a law firm and to recover an ordinary daily life, the client held close consultations at Daeryun's Cheonan office.

How the Client Came to Seek a Cheonan Law Firm

The account of the client, who urgently sought a Cheonan law firm, is as follows.

The client had been married to her husband for about 15 years.

After a single incident led the husband and the client into a serious quarrel, however, their relationship gradually broke down.

From then on, the husband treated the client with contempt and would even resort to violence whenever something did not please him.

He also inflicted on the client an injury requiring two weeks of treatment.

Suffering unbearable emotional distress from this conduct by her husband, the client resolved to seek a divorce.

The client sought a Cheonan law firm in order to prove, with the assistance of an attorney, that the cause of the marital breakdown lay with the husband and to claim 🔗divorce consolation money.

2. The Statutes Relating to the Case Explained by a Cheonan Law Firm

Divorce consolation money refers to the damages that may be claimed from the spouse who caused the divorce or from a third party.

If you have suffered emotional distress due to a spouse's wrongful conduct, you may claim consolation money.

Grounds for Judicial Divorce (Article 840 of the Civil Act)

1. If the spouse has committed an act of infidelity
2. If the spouse has maliciously deserted the other
3. If one has been grossly mistreated by the spouse or the spouse's lineal ascendants
4. If there is any other serious cause making it difficult to continue the marriage

In the client's case, the matter falls under being grossly mistreated by the spouse or the spouse's lineal ascendants, so a judicial divorce action may be filed.

3. The Cheonan Law Firm's Assistance

The Cheonan law firm assembled a task force of 3 to 20 specialists with experience handling a variety of divorce cases and established a tailored response.

Making the following arguments, the firm emphasized that the defendant must pay consolation money to the client.

Cheonan Law Firm's Argument ① Continued Assault

The client is suffering unbearable emotional distress due to the defendant's assault, infliction of injury, and threats.

Throughout the marriage, the defendant disregarded the client and would assault her whenever she resisted.

The firm emphasized that this situation was the decisive cause that made it impossible for the client to continue the marriage, and that it therefore constitutes a ground for divorce.

Cheonan Law Firm's Argument ② The Cause of the Marital Breakdown

The client made repeated efforts to restore the relationship with the defendant, but the defendant did not agree to them.

When the client raised the subject of divorce with the defendant, he hurled abuse at her and resorted to serious violence.

The firm therefore emphasized that the marital breakdown lay entirely with the defendant.

4. The Court's Decision on the Cheonan Law Firm's Argument

Accepting the Cheonan law firm's argument, the court issued the decision that ‘the plaintiff and the defendant shall divorce. The defendant shall pay the plaintiff 15 million won in consolation money.’

The client expressed deep gratitude to the Cheonan law firm.
