It's painful enough to discover your spouse's infidelity, but the injustice is immeasurable when the other party denies it, claiming "I didn't know he was married" or "We only met a few times." Today, we're introducing a case where we won a ₩20,000,000 won compensation judgment against a mistress who denied the affair and evaded responsibility. 😊
1. Case Overview 📝
The plaintiff (client) is a legally married couple who had been living a normal family life with her husband. However, she discovered that her husband had been having an affair with the defendant (mistress) for about seven months.
Accordingly, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the defendant seeking damages, but the defendant denied the wrongdoing, claiming the following:
-
"I didn't know the husband was married."
-
"We only met a few times for drinks, it wasn't a deep relationship."
2. Attorney's Assistance and Winning Points 💡
To refute the defendant's false claims, our firm collected objective evidence and submitted it to the court.
-
Detailed Evidence Analysis: We analyzed the black box video from the defendant's car found on an SD card given to the child by the husband. It contained explicit conversations revealing expressions of affection, with them calling each other "honey," and inferences of sexual relations.
-
Proof of Deception: We presented a recording of the defendant asking the husband, "Doesn't your wife say anything?" and "Was there anything wrong at home?" proving that the defendant was clearly aware of the husband's marital status.
-
Specification of Affair Period: Through a fact-finding inquiry with the telecommunications company and the husband's handwritten statement, we revealed that their relationship was not a simple encounter but a deep, nearly year-long affair.
3. Court's Judgment 👨⚖️
The court ruled that the defendant committed adultery knowing that the husband was married, thereby infringing on the plaintiff's marital cohabitation.
-
₩20,000,000 won in compensation awarded
-
Defendant to bear 2/3 of the litigation costs
Closing Remarks 🤝
In adultery lawsuits, meticulous organization of evidence to prove the illegal act is key, rather than simply appealing to emotions. We will fight to the end for those who want to regain their daily lives that have been shattered by their spouse's infidelity.
