1. Case Overview π
This case involves the defendant violating a 'written agreement' stating they would no longer meet or contact the plaintiff's spouse, and being caught continuing their affair in secret. The plaintiff (our client) suffered health problems due to betrayal and stress, leading to a lawsuit seeking damages for breach of contract.
2. Attorney Seo Yuri's Assistance and Strategy π‘οΈ
The defendant denied the allegations, claiming, "It was work-related contact," and "I didn't contact them first." However, we responded with a thorough analysis of the evidence, including:
-
Detailed Presentation of Evidence: We analyzed call records to prove that the defendant repeated the contact patterns used during the past affair (using the company's main phone number, etc.). π±
-
Analysis of On-Site Photos and Videos: We submitted concrete evidence of their reunion, such as evidence of them riding in the same car after a meal and staying together for a certain period. πΈ
-
Legal Rebuttal: Regarding the defendant's claims that the 'agreement was invalid' and that 'the penalty was excessive,' we strongly asserted the validity of the agreement based on the client's mental distress (diagnosis of sudden hearing loss, etc.) and economic situation. πͺ
3. Case Outcome (Judgment) π
The court accepted all of our arguments and ruled that "The defendant shall pay the plaintiff the full amount of the penalty of 29,000,000 KRW and default interest." The defendant was also ordered to bear all litigation costs, perfectly protecting the client's rights. π
π‘ A Word from the Attorney
