2025.07.07김국일

The client came to the Daegu branch office's inheritance attorney to pursue a related lawsuit because an unknown person had been registered as the client's child.

1. The Circumstances of the Client

The client learned that a person whom the client had never seen before in their life was registered as a child on the family register.

However, the client did not know of that person's existence, and because the husband had already passed away, the circumstances could not be determined. The client came to the Daegu branch office's inheritance attorney to set the family register straight even at this late stage.

The Daegu Inheritance Attorney's Account of the Client's Situation

As the client grew older and recently experienced a rapid decline in health, the client was reviewing and organizing personal administrative documents again.

While checking the family relationship certificate, the client learned that a name never seen before in their life was registered as a child.

No matter how much the client thought about it, the client had no such child, and because the husband had already passed away, the client was at a loss as to how this could have happened.

The client therefore came to the Daegu inheritance attorney to set the documentary family relationship straight, even at this late stage.

2. Information About the Case Explained by the Daegu Inheritance Attorney

As in the client's case, if a person who is not a biological child is registered on a family relationship certificate, this can be corrected by filing a lawsuit for confirmation of non-existence of a parent-child relationship with the court.

However, the claim is not granted simply by filing the suit, so clear evidence supporting one's assertion must be prepared.

A representative example is the confirmation of the parent-child relationship through a genetic test.

A lawsuit for confirmation of non-existence of a parent-child relationship usually takes a long time to prove the precise relationship, so it takes about five to six months at the shortest and eight to ten months at the longest.

Because there are many procedures to verify and many legal facts to review during that time, it can be helpful to receive appropriate assistance from an attorney rather than proceeding alone.

The court, accepting the attorney's argument, ruled that “it is confirmed that no parent-child relationship exists between the client and the defendant.”
