Price of Goods Assistance Case | Successful Full Recovery of a Stock Corporation's Price of Goods

The client, who came to our firm intending to file a lawsuit after failing to recover the price of goods, is the representative of a stock corporation and requested overall assistance with a price of goods matter.

1. Circumstances Leading to the Price of Goods Case

The client, who had faced difficulties after failing to recover the price of goods, was able to recover the full amount and win the case through the systematic assistance of a civil attorney.

The Client's Account

The client, as the representative of a company that supplies goods, delivered products to Company A over a certain period.

In the early stages of the transactions, delivery and payment proceeded smoothly, but some amounts remained unpaid as outstanding receivables, and the amount gradually increased over time.

Accordingly, the client requested payment several times, but Company A raised an objection and delayed payment, alleging that “the party to the contract is not me but another person.”

In order to recover the unpaid amount, the client therefore prepared to file a lawsuit and requested the assistance of a civil specialist attorney for the legal response, confirmation of the party to the contract, and organization of evidence.

2. What Is a Lawsuit Claiming the Price of Goods?

A lawsuit claiming the price of goods is a procedure that a seller files with the court to restore its rights when the counterparty, who is obligated to pay the price under a sales contract, fails to perform its promise.

Looking at the legal provisions that serve as the basis for this lawsuit, the Civil Act (Civil Code) provides for the rights and obligations arising from a sales contract as follows

Article 568 of the Civil Act (Civil Code) (Effect of Sale)

(1) The seller shall transfer to the buyer the right that is the object of the sale, and the buyer shall pay the price thereof to the seller.

(2) The mutual obligations of both parties under the preceding paragraph shall be performed simultaneously in the absence of any special agreement or custom.

Key Points

What matters in this lawsuit is not simply filing a claim, but clearly proving that a contract exists and that the obligation to pay the price lies with the counterparty.

Accordingly, the plaintiff must specifically prove the following.

· The fact that a transaction for the sale of goods actually took place

· The fact that an obligation arose for the defendant to pay the price under the sales contract

· The fact that the plaintiff delivered the relevant goods to the defendant

In order to prove these key facts, it is necessary to sufficiently prepare objective evidence such as the contract, transaction statements, tax invoices, and delivery confirmation materials, and it is important to organize the legal arguments on this basis.

3. Strategy for Full Recovery of the Price of Goods

Establishing a strategy for full recovery of the price of goods

In order to recover the full price of goods, we established and carried out the following strategy.

Assistance of the Civil Specialist Attorney | (1) Organizing the Facts and Evidence

The civil specialist attorney systematically collected and reviewed materials from the client, such as contract-related emails, transaction statements, tax invoices, and delivery records, and clearly organized the facts.

Through this, it was confirmed that, although the client had faithfully performed all of its contractual obligations, the defendant was refusing to pay the price while alleging that it was not a party to the contract.

In addition, the materials were organized so as to prove that the client had directly negotiated and coordinated key matters such as the price, the delivery method, and whether advance payment would be made.

Assistance of the Civil Specialist Attorney | (2) Response to the Defendant's Argument

The defendant alleged that it was not a party to the contract and presented a witness's opinion as a basis, but the civil specialist attorney pointed out problems with the credibility of that testimony.

· The point that the witness did not directly attend the site where the contract was concluded and was not in a position to confirm the contents of the contract or the parties to it

· The point that the witness repeatedly made statements that contradicted the objective materials

Through this, doubt was raised as to the reliability of the defendant's argument, and the grounds proving that the parties to the contract were the client and the defendant were emphasized.

Assistance of the Civil Specialist Attorney | (3) Determining and Proving the Parties to the Contract

The civil specialist attorney reviewed the contract-related materials and evidence and clearly organized the parties to the contract and the circumstances of the transaction.

The attorney emphasized the process by which key matters such as payment and delivery were actually negotiated and decided, applied for the necessary witnesses, and systematically prepared the supporting evidence.

Through this, the attorney provided assistance so that the facts and the process of concluding the contract could be comprehensively proven despite the defendant's unjustified arguments.

4. Result of the Price of Goods Case Assistance: “Winning the Case”
