Wonju Divorce Attorney Case | Successfully Securing Parental Authority and Custody Through Divorce Litigation
The client came to the Wonju office to protect parental authority and custody after being sued for divorce by the husband who had caused the breakdown of the marriage.
1. How the Client Came to a Wonju Divorce Attorney

The client had married at a young age and even had a child, but was experiencing a difficult marriage due to the husband's infidelity and other issues.
Yet it was the spouse who had brought about the discord who filed for divorce against the client, and so the client asked the Wonju attorney for help with the divorce litigation in order to protect at least the parental authority and custody of the child.
The Account of the Decision to Divorce as Reviewed by the Wonju Attorney
The client had married at a relatively young age and had a child, living as a wife and a mother.
However, due to the husband's continual verbal abuse, infidelity, and irresponsible attitude, the marriage that should have been happy was full of instability.
While enduring this for the sake of the child, it was instead the husband, who had been bringing about the breakdown of the marriage, who filed for divorce.
Feeling the unfairness because the content of the husband's lawsuit differed greatly from the facts, the client asked the Wonju divorce attorney for assistance in order to protect the parental authority and custody of the child.
Divorce-Related Laws as Explained by the Wonju Attorney
As in the client's case, if mutual conciliation between the spouses is not easy and there is no possibility of a divorce by agreement, the divorce proceeds through litigation by way of the 🔗judicial divorce procedure.
When the matter reaches the judicial divorce procedure, the conflict of interests is severe, so the parties' claims are opposed, and it is likely to develop into a contest of legal arguments.
For this reason, it is important to receive the assistance of an attorney in order to build legally advantageous arguments based on the grounds for divorce.
When a conciliated divorce breaks down and the judicial divorce procedure is conducted, the procedure is as follows.
In addition, if no agreement on child-rearing is reached between the divorcing parties, the family court will, through the judicial divorce procedure, also rule on the custodian, the child-rearing expenses, and visitation rights.
At that point, factors such as the child's wishes and age, the parents' financial circumstances, and whether either party provided the cause of the marital breakdown have an effect, so it is important to prepare a sound legal response to these.
2. The Wonju Divorce Attorney's Assistance
The Wonju divorce attorney carefully gathered circumstances that could lead to a favorable judgment in the client's trial and argued as follows.
The Wonju Divorce Litigation Attorney's Argument | The Spouse's Infidelity and Lack of Diligence
Throughout the marriage, the client's spouse engaged in continual adultery and failed to uphold the duty of fidelity, rather than making efforts to keep the marital relationship harmonious and happy.
The Wonju divorce litigation attorney emphasized that the breakdown of this marriage was entirely attributable to the spouse.
The Wonju Divorce Litigation Attorney's Argument | Degree of Participation in Child-Rearing
The client's spouse neither provided living expenses to raise the child nor participated in the household work involved in child-rearing, consistently showing a negligent attitude toward family life.
Accordingly, the Wonju divorce litigation attorney emphasized that, taking into account the degree of participation in child-rearing, both parental authority and custody should be assigned to the client.
3. The Result of the Wonju Divorce Attorney's Assistance: “A Favorable Judgment”
Accepting the Wonju divorce attorney's arguments, the court designated the client as the holder of parental authority and custody, and ordered the husband to pay child support until the child reaches the age of majority.
