3. The Changwon Law Office's Assistance
The Changwon attorney analyzed the precedents and the real estate laws and established a step-by-step strategy. The attorney presented the following arguments during the pleadings.
Changwon Law Office Argument ① Disadvantage in Exercising Property Rights
The client recently applied for a building permit from the competent district office in order to exercise his legitimate property rights, such as by constructing a new building on the land in question.
However, the building permit application was rejected on the ground that the defendant's unauthorized structure was occupying the land in question.
On this basis, the client emphasized that he was suffering substantial disadvantage in exercising his legitimate property rights because of the defendant's conduct.
Changwon Law Office Argument ② Repeated Demolition Requests
The client repeatedly requested the defendant to demolish the portion encroaching on the client's land, but the defendant has not complied to this day.
The client has the right to seek demolition of the building against the defendant, who claims to be the actual owner of the building in question.
In addition, the client emphasized that the defendant has not paid even a single won in land rent to this day while occupying the land without authorization and obtaining unjust gains.
4. The Court's Decision on the Changwon Law Office's Arguments
The court accepted the Changwon law office's arguments and issued a decision that 'the defendant shall demolish the wall in this case and deliver the land.'
The client expressed deep gratitude to the Changwon attorney.
