A Husband Delays Litigation to Hide Properties – Lili Miao Receives a Banner for Protecting Her Client’s Home

In order to conceal and transfer property under his name, a husband maliciously delayed the litigation time, and also impersonated the judge to investigate the financial situation of the wife! Recently, the judgement in a divorce case represented by Lawyer Lili Miao in Jiali Law Firm was announced after 18 months. Lawyer Miao eventually won the house for her client Ms. Su.

Ms. Su and her husband were introduced to each other after both being previously married. The two had many personality differences. For many years, Ms. Su had worked by herself to take care of the family. She had to be responsible for supporting her husband financially, even when she was sick and after she had just undergone surgery. The man also had a severe tendency to domestic violence which hurt her greatly both physically and emotionally. In the end, she decided to divorce him.

In this case, both parties agreed to the divorce, but there was a disagreement about the ownership of a house that was purchased while they were married. After accepting the entrustment, Lawyer Lili Miao and Auxiliary Counsel Weijie Lv had a number of conversations with Ms. Su in person, and sorted out the purchase, registration and loan repayment information of the property.

During the trial, in order to conceal and transfer other properties under his name, the husband repeatedly made delays and did not provide the financial reports and supplementary materials required by the judge on time. He even repeatedly impersonated Ms. Su and the judge to investigate the property situation of the wife.

Considering that Ms. Su had cancer and had been living in a rented apartment for a long time, Lawyer Miao collected evidence as quickly as possible and visited the court several times to communicate with the court clerk and judge about accelerating the process. In order to fulfil the appeal sooner, after inquiring about the financial ability of Ms. Su, Lawyer Miao suggested that Ms. Su should prepare half of the amount of the house value in advance and send an application for payment to the court to prove her financial ability.

In the end, the court ruled that the house belonged to Ms. Su. After eight trials and many discussions, Lawyer Lili Miao eventually won ownership of the house for Ms. Su.

This case was not complicated; both parties agreed to divorce, and the only disagreement concerned ownership of the house. Under these circumstances, the case took 18 months solely because the counterparty maliciously delayed the litigation time. In the process of handling the case, Lawyer Lili Miao was always serious, patient and professional, and gave her client both legal and psychological comfort. After receiving the verdict, Ms. Su presented Lawyer Miao and Auxiliary Counsel Weijie Lv with a banner reading, ‘Virtuous, Disciplined, Professional and Hard-working’. She also wrote a thank you letter to the two lawyers to express her gratitude.

Lawyer Lili Miao is rigorous, calm, sharp-witted and good at responding in court and negotiating under the court. She possesses unique perseverance and can make 100% of efforts for 1% of hope.
