I am curious about the voice phishing types that occur frequently these days.

I have heard that voice phishing methods are becoming increasingly cunning. An acquaintance of mine also recently received a call impersonating the post office or a courier company, provided personal information, and suffered voice phishing damage. Because I am concerned that I might be deceived in a similar situation, I am curious about what kinds of voice phishing types occur frequently these days.

Up to how much is the gift limit between spouses possible?

I would like to have an inheritance related consultation. About how much should I expect the inheritance consultation cost to be?

Since my mother passed away, conflict has been arising among the siblings over the inheritance. ...One of the siblings is managing the assets, so the exact details have not been properly identified. Because agreement does not seem likely to be reached easily, I am considering an inheritance consultation, and I would first like to know approximately how much the inheritance consultation cost is. I am also curious about the overall flow, including what procedure the matter actually follows when an inheritance issue arises and how I should respond if it leads to a dispute. I am leaving this question before an inheritance related consultation.

Please explain the gift property deduction in detail.

I am expecting to receive property as a gift from my parents and my spouse, and I would like to know whether there is a way to reduce taxes.

When the inherited property and the debts are similar, can I limit the scope of inheritance through qualified acceptance of inheritance?

My father left property of about 40 million won, but it has been confirmed that there are also loans of a similar amount, about 40 million won. It also seems that he borrowed money from people around him, but the exact amount is unknown. Since I hear that inheriting also means taking on the debts, I am worried about whether I should accept the inheritance without even knowing the exact amount. I heard that in such a case one can limit the scope of what is inherited through qualified acceptance of inheritance, and I would like to know whether this is actually a method I can apply.

I would like to find out in advance, so could you tell me what the differences between inheritance tax and gift tax are?

The crime of adultery has been abolished. So can I claim consolation money through a civil lawsuit?

Hello. Recently, I learned that my husband had an affair. At first, the shock was so great that I could not think of anything, but as time passed, I have continued to feel anger and a sense of injustice. In the past, I would at least have filed a complaint for the crime of adultery, but I am told that is no longer possible now. The problem is that, because I have a child, it is realistically difficult to choose divorce right away. Even in such a case, can I claim something like consolation money through a civil lawsuit?

Is there a way to reduce driver's license penalty points?

Recently, driver's license penalty points have accumulated due to a traffic law violation, and I am worried because I heard that if it is left as it is, it could even lead to a license suspension. I am curious whether there is a way to reduce driver's license penalty points, whether they disappear only with the passage of time, or whether a reduction is possible through education or another procedure.
