The client, who was an elementary school student at the time, suffered repeated physical assaults and sexual abuse from peer perpetrators. The case involved the offenders exploiting the fact that they were minors under criminal law (juvenile offenders not subject to criminal punishment) and continuing their offenses in places beyond the reach of adults. Law Firm Jonjae was appointed as the victim’s representative and, based on a crime log and objective video evidence, proved the allegations and led to the juvenile offenders being referred to the Juvenile Division.

A minor client who had been in a relationship came under police investigation on suspicion of producing and distributing sexual exploitation materials because of footage taken in the context of the relationship. In a situation that could have had a devastating impact not only on school life but also on future career prospects, Law Firm Jonjae proved through digital forensic evidence and witness statements that the filming was consensual and that no distribution had occurred, securing a decision not to refer the case forward on all charges.

A child victim protection order was filed against our client, who had been accused of child abuse during divorce proceedings. By comprehensively presenting the prosecutor’s non-indictment decision of no charges, the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office’s statement analysis results, and the court investigator’s findings, Law Firm Jonjae secured a dismissal of the petition for a child victim protection order from the Seoul Family Court.
