디센트 법률사무소│DECENT LAW FIRM

Case Details: The client, a university student, made a momentary poor judgment due to mental health issues and committed theft one day. The incident occurred at a music store near the university, where the client impulsively stole sheet music while browsing inside. After being reported by the complainant, the client was arrested by the police and sought assistance from Decent Law Firm to resolve the mistake made during a difficult time when they could not suppress their impulses.

Decent's Strategy: In this case, the client intentionally stole the item and had the intent to unlawfully possess it, thereby meeting all the requirements for theft charges. As a result, it was difficult to avoid criminal punishment, and negotiating a settlement with the victim alone was also challenging.

Decent Law Firm submitted a written statement in advance before the victim's complaint was formally filed and meticulously prepared sentencing materials. We then actively pursued a settlement with the victim and, in case an amicable resolution could not be achieved, prepared strategies to avoid actual imprisonment, including options for deferred prosecution.

Outcome: "Non-Indictment (Deferred Prosecution) Decision"

Decent Law Firm emphasized the client's status as a university student and the difficulty in raising a large sum of money immediately, successfully negotiating a payment plan for the settlement amount. Additionally, we managed to achieve a settlement for a significantly lower amount than what the victim initially demanded.

As a result, the client received a deferred prosecution non-indictment decision, allowing them to return to their daily life.
