Dentons Lee is a full-service, highly innovative law firm with more than 60 years of experience serving the cross-border needs of our international clients. To further our ability to help our clients flourish and prosper in the ever-expanding global economy, our firm combined with Dentons, the world’s largest law firm, with more than 12,000 lawyers in 214 locations across 82 countries. Now, as Dentons’ Korea office, our firm provides unsurpassed global reach and resources to Korean companies in their global business activities, as well as to international companies seeking to enter and operate in the Korean market.

In Korea, we advise and represent domestic and foreign companies, governments, organizations and individuals, to help them navigate through the tangle of laws, regulations and business practices that may pose obstacles to their success. Given our extensive experience advising and representing foreign clients over many years, and with a team of seasoned foreign attorneys, we understand foreign companies, laws, practices, and cultures. We know how to communicate clearly and effectively with international clients and to anticipate their questions and concerns. This enables them to better understand the complexities of Korean law and make better decisions as they operate their businesses in Korea.

For Korean clients seeking to conduct outbound business in other countries, we work closely with our colleagues in other Dentons offices throughout the world, to enable clients to have a “one-stop” experience when obtaining legal services. We act as a trusted guide, helping our clients find highly skilled attorneys and other professionals in foreign countries to represent and advise them. We also act as interpreters, advisors, and managers, transmitting and explaining the information given between the foreign attorneys and our Korean clients so our clients understand the applicable foreign laws and practices and foreign attorneys understand our clients’ businesses and their requirements. And we advise and manage many of the projects being performed overseas to help reduce the burdens on our Korean clients in overseeing legal matters spread across the world.

The quality of our firm’s services in advisory, transactional, regulatory, dispute and other types of legal work, is reflected by the many Fortune 500 companies, Korean conglomerates and other top tier international companies that rely on our firm to help them grow, operate, finance, and protect their businesses.
