Lawsuit Against the Adulterous Partner (Male) Attorney Assistance | Case Granting 15 Million Won in Consolation Money, With Lawsuit Costs

The circumstances of the client, who came to the attorney handling lawsuits against the adulterous partner (male) to request assistance, are as follows.

The client had been living a happy married life with her husband and three children.

However, at a certain point the husband began to rarely answer calls and to return home late, which led the client to grow suspicious.

A few days later, while walking down the street, the client witnessed her wife coming out of a lodging establishment together with the adulterous partner.

Upon learning that her wife and the adulterous partner had maintained an affair over a long period, the client decided to file a lawsuit against the adulterous partner.

The client came to a Daeryun attorney to pursue a 🔗lawsuit against the adulterous partner (male) together with a specialized attorney and to seek consolation money.

To pursue a consolation money lawsuit against the adulterous partner (male), the following requirements must be met.

Under Articles 750 and 751 of the Civil Act, a person who causes loss to another through an unlawful act committed intentionally or negligently must compensate for that loss.

It is also held that a person who harms the body, liberty, or reputation of another, or causes mental suffering, is liable to compensate even for loss other than property loss.

According to Supreme Court precedent, where a third party commits an adulterous act with one spouse and thereby infringes upon the marital community of life, this constitutes a tort.

The defendant continued an improper relationship with the husband despite knowing that he had a spouse.

Accordingly, it was emphasized that the defendant has an obligation to pay consolation money to the client.

The client is unable to lead a normal daily life upon learning that the trusted husband and the defendant had maintained an illicit relationship over a long period.

It is a clear fact that the defendant's involvement was a primary cause of the breakdown of the marital relationship.

Accordingly, the attorney emphasized that the defendant has a responsibility to compensate for the client's emotional damage.

The case above was one in which the client who filed a lawsuit against the adulterous partner (male) seeking consolation money received a decision granting 15 million won in consolation money.
