Korea Business Team

Connecting Korea and the world. Trusted legal guidance combining global capability with local insight

Our Korea Business Team combines legal precision, cultural fluency, and international reach to support clients on both sides of the Korean market.

With more than 20 years of experience, we advise Korean companies investing or trading abroad, as well as international corporations doing business in Korea. Our team is poised to serve the increasingly complex legal needs of multinational Korean and other corporations, both contentious and non-contentious, in the Korea space. 

We have strong relationships with Korean clients and major local law firms, giving us a deep understanding of the market and its business culture. Many of our lawyers are bilingual and familiar with Korean commercial practices, allowing us to communicate clearly and effectively with clients and partners alike. 

We have a leading reputation in international trade, investigations, litigation, and international arbitration, with particular strength in the offshore, shipbuilding, shipping, insurance, energy and natural resources, construction, and media sectors. We also handle the full range of corporate transactions. Our standout work has included representing leading Korean companies in some of the highest profile shipbuilding and offshore international arbitrations of recent years, as well as sensitive engagements relating to export control and sanctions compliance.

Our lawyers are based across multiple global offices, enabling us to deliver seamless, coordinated service to clients wherever they operate. Whether advancing growth or mitigating risk, we bring the insight, reach, and connections needed to achieve your objectives.
