Attorney Kang Tae-hoon

Chapter 29

Lawyer Kang Tae-hoon Episode 029

‘Lee Baek-ho, this bastard… … .’

The facility manager I had met a few days ago wasn’t that vicious. He, too, was an old man who had lost his strength, and was merely a person who stood by the defendant to avoid the threat of his job.

Rather than thinking that he would have treated the staff like that, Baekho Lee passed by first.

Lee Baek-ho would have asked the facility manager to tell him that kind of propaganda.

That way he’d be able to keep everything.

“How can a living person be so mean in front of a dead person… … .”

Grandmother Um Chun-ja, who is sixty-one this year, finally wiped it with tears.

Taehoon just stood by his side without saying a word.

The reason they worked with ill-treatment was purely because of the elderly.

That’s the reality.

Otherwise, you might have to pick up the waste paper.

For young people, it’s enough to think, ‘Why are you doing this even though your salary is so low?’, to them, the income is less than 1 million won a month.

is their life.

It’s about putting your children’s hands down.

It is a love that can be given to grandchildren who come during Chuseok and Lunar New Year holidays.

It was something he left behind when he died.

“Park said so. If you can do something like us, you should do it. That’s true. Are there people who can write for old people like us? Still, I worked with him for 3 years. When I die, I wonder if I should be able to see that friend’s face proudly.”

Taehyung nodded his head at her answer.

He soon asked for formal things.

He put the welfare of his employees first.

Whether meals are provided, or rather a place. Another alternative is whether 15 days of annual paid leave is given according to the Labor Welfare Act.

He asked a lot.

Unfortunately, none of them were properly maintained.

He sighs in his chin.

This was the treatment of the old, sick, and uneducated workers of our country.

“I was worried about that wire. Manager Park also complained often. He was hedging, so he would wrap it up with electrical tape.”

“Then the wire is… … .”

“The friend died, so they replaced it within a few days. I must have given it to the junk yard.”

Taehyung nodded his head. Again, he was right.

He didn’t want to catch anything, so he replaced it right away.

The biggest cause of accidents.

Frayed and tattered wires.

In fact, one of the biggest pieces of evidence was lost.

“Maybe, Mr. If I apply for a witness, can you come with me?”

“Ask for witnesses? Oh, I have to. If I can relieve that friend of his injustice by doing that, I should do it.”

“thank you. mother.”

Taehoon smiled brightly. She also got her body up to work.

Still, with the resourcefulness he had acquired, he went down from the roof with a satisfied expression.

Going down, Taehoon could see construction workers with ladders moving back and forth in the apartment building where the problem was.

“May I know what you are doing now?”

“What are you doing, my friend? No new remodeling.”

“Remodeling?”

“There was an accident in the basement this time. That’s why they make a break room for the cleaners in the basement. Ugh, that’s not the way it is. word. Water flows in a row. a. Oh, and the apartment here is really good too. Does it make sense to let people rest in a place like that? Now, one person is dying, so let’s work on it.”

“Be strict.”

“Huh?”

“no. work hard.”

Taehoon smiled brightly.

Sudden remodeling. This was probably Lee’s idea as well. More than knowing that Moo-hyuk hired a lawyer. He seemed to be thinking of shutting off a complete passage.

In fact, in court, showing the scene only with photographic evidence is less powerful than actually seeing it.

For that reason, it was possible to request an on-site inspection, but this is to prevent it in advance.

“You know I got a witness.”

Taehyung smiled bitterly.

Do anything to win. That’s a good attitude as a lawyer.

However, he had to know that Taehoon was the same.

* * *

It was a preparatory day.

“Everyone, please stand up.”

As the judge began to come in, he spoke of the court inspector, who was standing in a seat.

Everyone stood up for a moment.

“Everyone, please sit down.”

I moved according to his instructions.

Moo-hyuk was sitting in the audience. Only Tae-Hoon, the legal representative, can come, but he dares to take the time to attend.

Conversely, only lawyer Lee Baek-ho was present on the defendant’s side.

“From now on, the hearing on the claim for damages in the Uijeongbu District Court, Part 7 of the Civil Settlement Case, Case No. 2011 Gahap No. 1234, begins. First of all, we check attendance.”

The judge’s eyes turned to Taehoon and Moohyuk.

“Did the plaintiff’s attorney attend?”

“Yes, I am Kang Tae-hoon, the plaintiff’s attorney.”

This time, we see the defense attorney Lee Baek-ho.

“Did the defendant attend?”

“Yes. This is Lee Baek-ho, the attorney for the defendant.”

It was time for the preparation written submissions and statements.

Taehoon got up.

He began to explain the documents he had submitted.

“In the case of No. 1, it is a photograph of evidence of the basement resting room where the victim Lee Kyung-ja died and is currently being used as a resting room for cleaning staff. Water leaked up to my ankles, and there were mold and cockroaches everywhere. And in the case of Certificate No. 2 of A, it is the salary statement of the victim Lee Kyung-ja. Victim Lee Kyung-ja was paid less than the standard wage and worked more than 10 hours a day… … .”

“great. You have submitted the defendant’s litigation representative’s answer, prepared documents, and Certificates 1 and 2 of B.”

Lee Baek-ho also began to testify in writing.

“In the case of Certificate 1, the victim, Kyungja Lee, submits the signed memorandum of employment stating that the company will not be held responsible for ‘work-related accidents or diseases’ in the memorandum of employment.”

Taehyung let out a low moan.

It was a fact he knew, but when it was presented as evidence, a great sense of intimidation came. In fact, that was the corner Lee Baek-ho believed in. consignment memorandum.

“all right. According to the prepared documents and pleadings submitted by the litigation representatives of both sides, the issue in this case is whether the defendant Hanum Construction Company avoids responsibility for the death of the victim Lee Kyung-ja. Do you have any witnesses on the plaintiff’s side?”

“Yes, I am applying as a witness to Ms. Eom Chun-ja, a cleaning lady who was close with the victim Lee Kyung-ja at the Hanum Construction Company.”

“We adopt the witness Eom Chun-ja.”

A small smile spread across Taehyung’s lips.

On the contrary, Baekho frowned.

‘Obviously I would have told you to keep your mouth shut… … !’

He told the manager to thoroughly manage his employees, but he seldom listened.

“Does the defendant have any witnesses to file for?”

“Yes. I am applying as witnesses for Park Joong-ho, a facility manager at Hanum Construction, and Lee Sae-hwan, a resident of the apartment.”

“We are taking witnesses Park Joong-ho and Lee Sae-hwan. Do the attorneys of both sides have additional evidence to submit or any witnesses to file for?”

“There is not.”

The two shook their heads together at the question again.

The date of the hearing was set, and everyone went out.

* * *

After work, I was about to go back to the office, but Kang Moo-hyuk caught me. He said let’s have a drink.

‘I don’t want to drink with you!’

He wanted to say, but he first called the law firm.

They said it would be heartbreaking and there would be many doubts.

As many times as he can, he gets to have a drink with him.

He was quite cheerful after a few days as he prepared for the trial. Instead, it seems like there are some bad friends around.

Looking at him now, it is hard to realize that he was such a cruel and vicious loan shark.

Tae-hoon and Mu-hyeok’s glasses, which came to the pigskin house, were constantly empty.

After one or two drinks, Moo-hyeok seemed to have a weak alcohol, and he got drunk pretty quickly.

“Please help me win this trial. Lawyer. My mother went through hardships, and that’s how I went. Wouldn’t it be too embarrassing if we let it go like this?”

“I will do my best to win.”Taehyung wins unconditionally. He didn’t say that.

In fact, he never said that he was unconditionally victorious.

That’s what bad lawyers say.

“Are you still working as a courier?”

“I gave up. My father’s hospital bills are not enough for courier work… … I am thinking of entering a shipyard when this is finished.”

“The shipyard… … .”

shipyard. The king was Sena, but the work was too arduous. Taehyung laughed bitterly. After all, he was the one who became a shipyard and not a loan shark.

“do your best. don’t go away What do you think your mother wants the most? Win in court? no. Kang Moo-hyuk and his younger brother. And the three fathers are living the right life.”

“Live right… … That’s funny. flaw. It is a very difficult world to live in.”

he chuckled. It is Moo-hyeok, who recently received a call from his friend. Still, wouldn’t it be better for him to work with him than with a shipyard? he said

His friend’s job was a loan shark.

He was a guy with a high monthly income.

“Don’t think of any other bad thoughts. only. Try again to be someone who is not ashamed of your sister and father. That is the triumph of life.”

But the lawyer in front was talking as if he knew he could do something bad.

victory in life Somehow, I was drawn to the word.

“If you let the lawyer win this trial… … I won that… … I will try to give it a try.”

Moo-hyuk was being forced to drink. Taehyung let out a sigh.

‘If I want to make sure I don’t become a loan shark, I have to win.’

“under… … our mom.”

Moo-hyuk looked through his arms and cried while looking at something on his phone.

Then he burst into tears and hurriedly stole it and showed it to Tae-Hoon.

“This lady is so pretty, isn’t it? I look like this at my age, but that’s how I went. like that.”

He said so and showed me his cell phone. The background picture on Moo-hyuk’s cell phone was his mother’s picture. Next to him was the gentle grandmother Um Chun-ja.

It was probably like a picture we took together while working.

“Yeah, you must have had the same beauty when you were young… … Well?”

Taehoon smiled and tried to drink soju, then stopped and carefully put down his glass.

He reached for his cell phone.

“Are you more likely to win this?”

Tae-hoon, who was holding the phone and looking at it carefully, zoomed in.

A small laugh passed.

“What do you mean?”

Moo-hyuk tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand. He frowned as he looked into his phone.

“Look closely around you. Where do you like it?”

“… … Come to think of it.”

Moo-hyuk, who was so drunk, felt himself waking up from drinking. His basement was clear. And right behind the two of them was a wire stamped together.
