Case of Appointing a Special Representative for Minors in Inheritance Proceedings

This case involved a foreign client whose spouse passed away in Korea, necessitating an inheritance division agreement with the children.

However, because the children were minors, the foreign client could not represent them directly. With the assistance of Pureum Law Office, a special representative was appointed for the children.

Simon carefully organized the complex facts and presented them to the Family Court, which decided to appoint a member of the deceased Korean spouse’s family as the special representative for the children.

The foreign client then negotiated the inheritance division with this special representative, successfully resolving all inheritance-related matters.
