Terms of Use

Effective date: 1 December 2026

1. Who provides the service

RecoverKR is operated by Han Kyeongjae Law Office (the “Law Office”), a law office in Seoul and a member of the Seoul Bar Association. All legal services are provided by the Law Office and its attorneys. The website is built and run for the Law Office by Theone Co., Ltd. ((주)테오네), which does not provide legal services and does not share in legal fees.

2. No attorney-client relationship yet

Sending a claim through this website does not create an attorney-client relationship. That begins only when you and the Law Office sign an engagement letter. Until then, do not rely on anything on this website as legal advice for your situation.

3. Conflict check and acceptance

Before accepting a case, the Law Office checks for conflicts of interest. The Law Office may decline any case. If it declines after you have paid, the fee is refunded in full.

4. Fees and invoices

• The debtor check costs USD 250. The Law Office issues an invoice, payable before work begins.
• If we recover money for you, the USD 250 is credited against the success fee.
• Success fees apply only to amounts you actually receive. The rate is set in your engagement letter.
• Court action needs your written approval and a retainer, quoted at that stage. Court stamp and service fees are charged at cost.
• Bank or card charges for paying an invoice are paid by the client.
• All fees exclude VAT. Korean VAT (10%) is added where it applies. Services supplied to clients without a place of business in Korea and paid in foreign currency are generally zero-rated.

5. Reply guarantee

For steps 1 and 2, we reply within 3 business days in Korea. If we miss this, the fee for that step is refunded. A reply means a substantive update, not an automatic message. The guarantee does not cover time spent waiting for documents from you or for courts and other authorities.

6. Cancellation and refunds

You can stop after any step by email. Fees for work already started are not refundable. Details are set out in your engagement letter.

7. What you agree to

• The information and documents you send are accurate, and you have the right to share them.
• The claim is genuine and you are entitled to pursue it.
• You will not use the service to harass anyone or to collect a debt that is not owed.

8. Confidentiality and data

Once a case is accepted, it is covered by attorney confidentiality. How we handle personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.

9. Results

Every claim is different. We cannot promise that any amount will be recovered.

10. Liability

To the extent Korean law allows, the Law Office’s liability for any matter is limited to the fees you paid for that matter, except in cases of intent or gross negligence. Nothing on this website is legal advice for your situation.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. The Seoul Central District Court has jurisdiction over any dispute, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
