[1] A couple conceals the truth about their debts, but through careful investigation, a win-win outcome is achieved.
Debt repayment is a matter of course. No matter how twists and turns the process, Zhiming lawyers always do their utmost to seek justice for their clients. Today, a winning verdict was delivered to the door of Guangdong Zhiming Law Firm, bringing this private lending case to a perfect close.
In 2019, Ms. Yin, through an acquaintance, learned about Attorney Wang Tengfeng, who specializes in resolving difficult and major cases. During her meeting with Attorney Wang, she gradually revealed a long-buried matter. It turned out that back in 2014, Mr. Li borrowed 8 million yuan from Ms. Yin for business turnover. Mr. Li immediately wrote an IOU and agreed on the loan interest. Without hesitation, Ms. Yin transferred the money to Mrs. Li's bank account. However, when the loan period expired, Mr. and Mrs. Li did not repay the debt but instead requested an extension. Trusting them, Ms. Yin agreed and even offered to reduce the monthly interest. Based on this, Mr. Li wrote a new IOU. Yet, when the loan matured again, Mr. and Mrs. Li still failed to repay. At this point, Ms. Yin couldn't help but worry, "After all, it's several million yuan, and it's been dragged on for so many years—can I still get this money back?"
Lawyer Wang, who has rich experience in handling cases, immediately recognized the distress of the parties involved, not only facing huge financial losses, but also the endless consumption of years of time and energy. Lawyer Wang decided to take on this case not for any other reason, but only to fulfill his legal responsibilities and safeguard the rights of the clients. After accepting the case, Lawyer Wang used literary and artistic rights litigation to guide intern lawyer Ma Jiaojiao in her painstaking research on the case. Although the case may seem simple, she must not take it lightly. Under the guidance of Lawyer Wang, intern lawyer Ma Jiaojiao carefully wrote the complaint, connected the evidence materials, and presented the factual situation. Finally, the day of the trial arrived, and the fully prepared lawyer, Zhiming, defeated the opposing party in the courtroom, leaving them with no defense to defend and ultimately losing the battle. As expected, our side won a complete victory in the first instance judgment, and the Li couple jointly repaid all loans and interest. At the moment Ms. Yin saw the verdict, her long furrowed brow finally unfolded.
However, unexpectedly, the opposing side was still dissatisfied and appealed to the intermediate court, but they could not produce any new evidence or raise any new arguments—it was merely reheating old leftovers. Relying on his years of courtroom experience, Attorney Wang adapted on the spot, countering every move they made. Knowing they were in the wrong, the outcome was obvious—the second-instance court dismissed the appeal and upheld the original judgment, securing another victory for our side!
