Firm Description

Yulchon was founded in 1997 by five of Korea’s leading attorneys who were determined to set a new standard of excellence in the practice of law in Korea. In little more than a decade, Yulchon has grown from a “law village” — the literal meaning of “Yulchon” — to a full-service firm of more than 230 professionals, including more than 40 attorneys licensed to practice in international jurisdictions, with diverse experience in all major business-related practice areas, including corporate, finance, tax, litigation, and intellectual property, as well as industry-specific practice teams. Despite this rapid growth, Yulchon has maintained an unwavering commitment to provide our clients with the highest quality of corporate legal service as promptly and as accurately as possible.

Yulchon strives continually to provide exceptional legal services with a level of creativity and commitment that exceeds your expectations. As a result, Yulchon has become one of the most highly-regarded law firms in Korea, ranking first among similarly-sized law firms as the outside counsel of choice for Korea’s 30 largest business groups, according to a recent survey by the influential Chosun Daily. Yulchon also enjoys a growing international reputation, and was recognized by Chambers Global as “one of the most respected and reliable practices in Korea.”

Yulchon’s TMT Team maintains close cooperative relationships with many regulatory authorities, including the Korea Communications Commission. Based on our extensive theoretical background, practical experience, and close cooperation with regulatory authorities, Yulchon has been able to provide our clients with high quality legal services addressing various issues in the telecommunications and broadcasting field. We handle everything from the planning stages of a project to assisting clients with post investigation issues following inquiries by the Korea Communications Commission. We also represent clients in other administrative actions and civil litigation.
