Overview
The economic ties between Korea and the United States, Europe and the rest of the world run deep and strong and we have extensive experience working with Korean businesses and government agencies. Members of our team have studied in Korea, speak the language fluently and have extensive, first-hand experience with the country’s traditional and emerging business, cultural and legal systems. We also have strong relationships with a network of leading law firms and professional-services firms in situ.
Members of our Korea practice are also well versed in the legal and business practices and traditions that prevail in New York, London, Paris and other commercial centers around the world. Drawing on our global training, experience and background, our professionals span the divide that too often separates Korean and non-Korean companies, and better smooth the path of complex transactions.
We provide counsel on a broad range of legal issues, including antitrust and competition, corporate transactions such as mergers and acquisitions, intellectual property prosecution and litigation, commercial litigation and arbitration, international trade, white-collar criminal defense, and compliance with the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other relevant regulations. We advise businesses in numerous industries and have developed significant experience representing clients in the energy and life sciences sectors, in particular.
