The story of the client that the Mokpo family law attorney heard was as follows.

The client's daughter had recently died in a traffic accident, and the daughter's husband was in a state of bankruptcy after divorcing the client's daughter.

Because he was therefore in severe financial hardship and had poor credit, it was very difficult to raise the persons concerned in the case.

The Mokpo family law attorney granted the client's request and decided to undertake the handling of the petition to appoint a guardian of a minor.

A guardian of a minor is a legal representative appointed to protect the welfare and rights of a minor when a parent has died or, for some reason, can no longer exercise parental authority.

▶Article 928 of the Civil Act (Commencement of Guardianship of a Minor)

If a minor has no holder of parental authority, or if the holder of parental authority cannot exercise all or part of parental authority under Article 924, Article 924-2, Article 925, or Article 927(1), a guardian of a minor must be appointed.

A third party who is not a parent is appointed as the guardian of a minor and acts on the minor's behalf in legal acts and the management of property.

The procedure for petitioning for the appointment of a guardian of a minor that the Mokpo family law attorney sought to pursue is as follows.

Receipt of the petition form for appointment of a guardian of a minor > investigation and evaluation > adjudication on the appointment of a guardian of a minor > decision on whether to appoint

After the 🔗petition form for appointment of a guardian of a minor is filed with the competent family court, the appointment is decided through an adjudication.

Not everyone who petitions for the appointment of a guardian of a minor is appointed as a guardian.

Because a guardian of a minor obtains the authority to represent the ward in legal acts, the guardian is appointed through a strict procedure for evaluating status.

Because an individual who files on their own may fail to obtain the appointment, please receive a recommendation for an attorney and request that the matter be handled on your behalf.

That the client and the persons concerned in the case have already lived together for several years and have formed a deep emotional bond

That the persons concerned in the case are minors and need to continue living under the client's care until they reach adulthood
