I need a divorce consultation. My husband keeps hitting my mother.

Is there an attorney available for a divorce consultation? From one day on, my husband started hitting my mother, and no matter how much I try to stop him, he will not listen to me.

I have a question about damages for assault.

Suwon attorney, I have a question. Around last January, while walking down the street, I got into a quarrel with a drunk person and was assaulted. It seems I received an injury requiring about three weeks to heal. The other party used a good lawyer, so it seems the criminal case was concluded with a suspension of indictment, but I feel so wronged and resentful. So I want to file a lawsuit for damages for assault and take revenge through civil means. Suwon attorney, please tell me how to bring a claim for damages for assault.

Attorney, I urgently want to stop the debt collection procedure.

I am leaving this question because I need to stop the debt collection procedure. Because I have not been able to repay my gambling debts, I am still suffering from debt collection demands. The amount is quite large, but I have no intention of not repaying it at all. However, since collection calls keep coming and put pressure on me, I am in an awkward situation. I would be grateful if you could tell me, among other things, whether I can stop the debt collection procedure by applying for the debtor's agent system and retaining a Seoul debt collection attorney.

Can I file an assault complaint?

A few days ago, at a drinking gathering, I had an argument with the people at the next table, and one of them suddenly shoved me and grabbed me by the collar. He also shouted that he knew my home address and that he would not let this go. I was not injured, but I was startled and frightened, so I left the scene immediately. Even upon reflection, I believe this clearly constitutes assault. Can I file an assault complaint with the police? And can I file the complaint without the other person knowing? I am worried about being retaliated against.

Am I subject to criminal punishment?

I am a first-time drug offender and consumed it without knowing it was a drug. Will I be punished?

A few days ago, I drank a beverage that a stranger shared at a club. Because it tasted so good, I drank about two or three more glasses. When I later asked what the beverage was, I was told that a drug had been in it. I truly did not know that it was a drink containing a drug. Even though I am a first-time drug offender, can I still be criminally punished?

If I am subjected to a fraud complaint, will I receive a custodial sentence?

Hello. A while ago, out of boredom, I created an Instagram account using a celebrity's photos and sent DMs to other people. I started it because it was amusing to see people get fooled, but when I asked for money, they sent it easily. In the end, I was caught, and a while ago I heard that I had been reported for the crime of fraud. If I am subjected to a fraud complaint, will I go to prison? Will I be punished even though it is a small amount of money? I am truly remorseful.. how should I respond?
