General Civil Litigation
From contract disputes and damages claims to real estate and debt litigation,
we deliver battle-tested litigation capability across the full spectrum of civil law.
Overview
Civil litigation is the ultimate procedure for determining the property rights of individuals and businesses. Depending on the nature of a case, the economic stakes can range from a few million to hundreds of billions of won. The outcome turns on precise analysis of the legal issues — contract interpretation, allocation of the burden of proof, and damages calculation — as well as the underlying facts.
PYEONG AN's litigation team is led by former Supreme Court Justice Ahn Dae-hee, Chairman, alongside former senior presiding judges of the High Court and former district court chief judges who formulate litigation strategy with a deep understanding of how courts reach their decisions. Our strength lies not in listing legal arguments, but in identifying the pivotal issues in each case and constructing arguments that will genuinely persuade the bench.
We handle the full range of civil matters — loan and purchase price claims, damages actions (tort and breach of contract), property disputes, construction payment claims, guarantee obligations, and unjust enrichment — providing consistent representation from the first instance through to Supreme Court appeals, as well as prejudgment attachments, injunctions, and enforcement proceedings.
In high-value and complex civil litigation, we have the expertise and organizational capacity to stand as equals against the largest law firms, while maintaining close communication with our clients to support optimal decision-making at every stage of proceedings.
