A Seocho lawyer in Seoul, handling your case near the courts

We are on the 2nd floor of the Blue One Building, 156 Seochojungang-ro, Seocho-gu, Seoul, within walking distance of Seoul National University of Education Station along Seochojungang-ro. Seoul Central District Court and the Seoul Bankruptcy Court are close by, so on the day of a hearing or creditors' meeting you can stop in and discuss the next step.

Yes. There is no court-based restriction on appointing a Seocho lawyer, and the attorney goes to Seoul Eastern District Court for each court date. Civil and criminal cases in Seoul are divided by district among five district courts: Central, Eastern, Southern, Northern and Western (Act on the Establishment of Courts of Various Levels and Their Jurisdictional Districts, Appended Table 3), so just tell us the court named on the complaint or indictment.

If the last address where the couple lived together is in Seoul and one spouse still lives in Seoul, you can file with the Seoul Family Court; otherwise the Busan Family Court, for your spouse's address, has jurisdiction (Family Litigation Act, Article 22). Law Firm Yulmaru has offices in both Seoul and Busan, so we can handle the case whichever court it is.

Yes. The debtor must attend the meeting of individual rehabilitation creditors and explain the repayment plan if a creditor asks (Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, Article 613(2)), and there is also an interview with the rehabilitation commissioner. The Seoul Office is close to the Seoul Bankruptcy Court, so you can stop by before or after the meeting to check preparations.

Call 1800-6419 for criminal, divorce and civil litigation, and 1800-6719 for individual rehabilitation and bankruptcy. Consultations are Monday to Friday, 09:00~18:00. If you first tell us the court name and date on the document you received, we schedule a time at the Seoul Office with an attorney for that field.

Yes. Cases at Seoul schools are heard by the committees of the 11 district offices of education overseeing the schools (for Seocho-gu, the Gangnam Seocho District Office of Education), and administrative appeals against measures go to the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education Administrative Appeals Commission. The Seoul Office first hears what stage the case is at by phone, then schedules a time with Attorney Park Sang Jun or Moon Ji Yeong.
