Jiyoung SohnBae, Kim & Lee LLC

Soo Bong Jung heads the practice at Bae, Kim & Lee LLC, which is recommended for its deep knowledge of anti-bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering, and intellectual property. Jung draws on his longstanding prosecution expertise to handle the full range of criminal cases involving tax, libel, and corporate law. Sangchul Lee is particularly adept at handling cases involving fair trade, industrial safety, and trade secret-related cases and investigations, and Jiyoung Sohn stands out due to her substantial expertise in criminal investigations, often acting for multinational corporations before Korean regulatory authorities. Corporate crime expert Jinwon Choi often handles matters concerning human resources and labour law, while Jinwon Choi routinely advises clients on potential violations of both domestic and overseas anti-corruption laws, in addition to internal investigations and trade secret leaks.
