Real Estate & Lease Disputes
For foreign residents in Korea · Pyeongtaek
Housing leases in Korea involve deposit structures (jeonse and wolse) and legal protections that are often unfamiliar to foreign tenants.
We help tenants and landlords resolve deposit and lease disputes, including recovering deposits that are not returned.
Common Situations
- A landlord will not return your deposit
- Disputes over lease terms or renewal
- Property condition or repair disputes
What We Will Tell You Honestly
- Whether your deposit is actually recoverable, and in what order you rank against other creditors.
- Which protections under Korean housing lease law apply to you as a foreign tenant — and which deadlines you must not miss.
