Great experience getting some legal help from overseas. Very responsive and efficient, made the process getting all paperwork completed very easy. Thank you!
This is the best lawyer firm for my type of case. If you are torn for making a decision whether to hire them or not, please do. They are accountable and take full ownership about the process and results. You can ask any questions you want and they are pretty fast to respond. My case seemed impossible but within 4 months, they resolved it and I am relieved. Thank you!!
I really appreciate all of the help that I have received from this organization. Not only were they kind and helpful in answering all of my questions, their responses were prompt and concise. I 100% feel comfortable recommending them.
Very prompt and accurate service. I was impressed with the level of professionalism and speed of response, it speaks volumes of the firm. Clearly, there is an interest not only in professionalism and competence, but also consideration of the client’s best interest. Highly recommend.

Outstanding!!! Atty. Chung and Partners. On behalf of the expat workers that I have been trying to help in seeking legal advice particularly in the matters of unclaimed severance pay or who should pay for their severance pay, I had sought for numerous legal advice from government and private legal offices, but just triggered my brain to ask more questions , and not until I sought for a legal advice from your office that I feel extremely satisfied and grateful or your very enlightening legal advice whcih absolutely cleared the cobwebs in my head. Your excellent command of the English language also helped a lot to bridge the laguage barrier between your expat clients in conveying all the legal facts and consequences.
I highly recommend your lawfirm to all the expats who are having trouble knowing and understadinng Korean labor law . More power to you and your staff, Atty Chung!!!
Thanks a lot, sir. Your advice was a very big help to my situation. It was really reliable. I don’t know what I could have done without your help. I’m grateful 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯
I would like to express my sincere thanks for the enthusiastic support of Chung & Partners, especially Lawyer Mr. Chung. Lawyer Chung has worked with utmost responsibility and dedication to the client. I really appreciate it. Great service!

I appreciate the prompt and informative reply that I received. Thank you for your advice it is very helpful in this stressful situation.
Very much appreciated.
My family and I have been trying to find out our son’s immigration status since 2014, when he was informed to leave. This firm’s prompt reply has been the most informative and newsy information that we have, thus, received during all this time – having asking a “patent lawyer” that we regrettably hired in Daegu, having gone to both immigration offices in Seoul and from various online searches and visits to Korean consulates in the United States.
Although, it may continue to be a hard row to hoe ahead, at least, we have some courses of action, provided by this firm, to pursue that may lead to our son being able to return to Korea. After all, our son was born in Korea, his mother is a Korean citizen and I, his father, was born in Korea and served in the United States Army for over eleven years in Korea.
I pray that this will lead to a positive resolution resulting in our son being able to enter Korea to help manage our family business.
I was impressed by the immediate response. Though my case is complicated and is far from being resolved, I am very glad to get the help of professionals. Hope that my case will be resolved, and I will add more comments on the issue. Thank you.
I used Chung & Partners to handle my case. The service was impeccable and very professional. He answered my questions before I even hired him and did so in much detail. I am very satisfied with the service and would 100% recommend his services to anyone who needs a lawyer. May your firm be blessed! Thank you and 감사합니다.
I was very lucky to find Chung & Partners when searching for the lawyer in Korea (husband’s death and my pension issues). Regardless of the fact that we never met, everything was done to the best standards. Thank you very much for your professionalism, attention to details and ability to explain complicated Korean laws in simple English.
Would highly recommend!
Many thanks to Chung & Partners for a prompt response to my inquiry regarding Korean marriage law. The answer was clear and most helpful.
I will certainly contact this firm in future if I am in need of any legal assistance.
I would like to say thank you, for being patient when we were not, for helping us through this hard process. You were so professional, prompt to answer all of our questions. This was a great service, would continue to recommend you in the service. We are jumping for joy 😊 . Thank you. As aforeigners in Korea it was hard finding someone who understood and was willing to help, you made the difference.
I was sceptical at first. Especially when I had to sent personal information and wire transfer the fee to another country. I wasted a lot of money in California to get a divorce and whished to have the research done earlier to pick this law firm. My previous California lawyer did not get me anywhere and after 9-month my divorce was still stuck in the California court system. Your law firm promissed me a timeline, kept the timeline, and I am divorced in the timeline you promissed. Thanks!
Note: Highly encourage to use this law firm if you want results—not fake promisses!
Lawyers at Chung & Partners were professional and supportive through a very trying time. I was able to get a satisfactory resolution to a tedious and, especially due to the pandemic, uncertain and further complex labor law/compensation related situation. I would whole heartedly recommend Chung & Partners. I’m very grateful to have worked with them.
I am very grateful to Chung & Partners for their straightforward reply (to which I’m looking for) on my query on the correct basis of the calculation of severance fee as per Korea Labor Law. Thank you very much, Sir!
I am very grateful to the lawyer at Chung & Partners for guiding me into the right direction. I had spent hours searching about inheritance law (specifically a Korean-Canadian child inheriting a Korean-Canadian mother’s assets held in Korea) and felt very helpless. He responded promptly with clear guidance. Thank you so very much!
I am so happy that I was able to ask some questions and get a general answer without having to pay for a consultation……lawyers and legal offices that give out some advice before so that you can decide to proceed with their help or not are wonderful
This law firm is such an asset to expatriates living in Korea. On several occasions, this firm has promptly responded and alleviated quite a few stressful situations. I have nothing but admiration for their professionalism. I am eternally grateful for their guidance and understanding of my legal issues.
This service is wonderful, I feel lucky to have found it. My wife had suddenly fallen into a trap related to her inheritance, and was receiving conflicting advice from people and even a “best option” suggestion from her brother’s judicial scrivener that seemed outright counter-productive. I am very grateful to Attorney Chung for his patience in clarifying my wife’s real options here, and putting us on the right track to resolving this problem efficiently. While also providing us other valuable knowledge about our situation that I wasn’t even looking for. A really fine service indeed!
As a foreign national, I contacted Chung & Partners through this website for help with a divorce. I got married in Korea to a Korean national and the system was very difficult, but he was extremely helpful in making the process easy. I recommend his services to any foreigner who needs help – he is always prepared to give helpful advice and will make sure that the problem is solved.
Thank you again to the team at Chung & Partners for being a bright light during a difficult time. I will always return here if I need any more help.
This service was extrememly helpful.
They responded quickly when I was in a time of distress about my employer abusing our contract and they gave me the advice I needed to move forward in negotiations.
If Neil reads this, your suggestions were highly appreciated.
~Brodie
He was very responsive to my questions and very practical and knowledgeable in his answers. He was able to simplify some complex scenarios for me and help me navigate some of the confusion that exists in Korean law for foreigners. It’s comforting to have someone that can help in this situation. I also appreciated his knowledge of the practical application of the law and the directness of the advice.
I was able to save a lot of time and effort in regards to the F4 visa and the second generation Korean status. Communication was responsive and the advice actionable. Thank you!
I dearly appreciate and honor Chung & Partners for giving me timely, clear and thorough responses to my several questions. The lawyer is very professional, and this Law Office seems excellent for assisting us internationals with the Korean courts.
I really appreciate their quick and thorough response. Their professional advice helped us not only to make decisions but also to avoid spending extra time and budget on court procedures. Dealt with visa and family issues and now can definitely recommend their assistance.
Dear Chung & Partners team,
I just wanted to let you know I received my F-6 visa! I’m back in Korea now, and my wife and family are so happy! I really want to thank you for your help!
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my questions about family law matters in Korea. Your quick and thorough responses have put mine and my family’s hearts at ease. Your dedication to foreigner’s legal problems is unmatched. Thanks again for all your help!
I first discovered this law firm via his informative blog on askkorealaw.com – upon my first enquiry the lawyer was instantly helpful and was able to grasp the situation I was facing well. Since then he has been a trusted source of information and someone I would return to again for guidance and counsel.
I spoke with Neil today about some issues I was having with my job. He was sympathetic and very knowledgeable. I feel so much better about the situation my school has put me in. He was able to describe Korean law to me so I know that what I have done is not illegal and that I do not have to worry about anything. He really took the time to ask follow up questions and give me the most accurate answers possible. I am so grateful that I found this company as a resource. I highly recommend working with them. If anything escalates at my job and I need to hire someone I will be coming back here!
Thank you so much for taking the time to look everything over and offer your insight. It has been extremely helpful. You have my respect and appreciation. You have played an invaluable part in my understanding of my case and definitely factor into the steps I need to take going forward.
Thank you very much for your fast and detailled reply. My question would never have been answered without your kind free help. I wish you the best, always!
Chung & Partners has been professional, to the point and very responsive to all my needs and questions. Always very attentive and quick to respond and come back to me. I can highly recommend
Hope all is well. It’s with great pleasure to inform you that my green card petition has been approved by USCIS. Thanks for your tremendous support in drafting the legal memo explaining the Korean Birth Certificate system. I could not have achieved this milestone without your support.
I just want to say thank you for your help and advice. It’s really difficult to find knowledgeable and English speaking help in Korea. Not only were you quick with your reply you provided me with invaluable information. Again thank you and I definitely will be recommending you to my family and friends!
Thank you for your free advice and prompt response. It’s hard as a foreigner trying to understand Korean law. By far this has been the best response I have received Thank you once again.
Thank you so much for your fast response. I wasn’t able to find the information you provided me anywhere else but you were able to explain it to me so easily through one email.
I admire what you do for people like me! It’s not easy being Korean especially when you barely have any resources regarding Korean law written in english.
Once again, thank you so much for your help. I will contact you again if I need further assistance.
Thank you for your quick response. Your advice was very helpful and reassuring; I am very grateful. Additionally, you are very kind to have given it for free. I will definitely keep your contact information should my legal affairs – especially my Korean/American ones – require your legal assistance.
Thank you for your help. I’ve tried numerous lawyers in Korea, but non have been able to offer me clear an concise advice. Chung & Partners, thanks again for all your help!
The response from Chung & Partners was very helpful. When you feel alone in your haywire circumstances, you will need all the help you need. In my case, he gave me a good start point for how to deal with my situation.
I’m grateful for that and maybe I need a further legal help from him.
Dear Chung & Partners
Thank you for your prompt answer and explanation .Your answer is very helpful and for further datails I will contact you
again
Thank you
Attorney at Chung & Partners was very helpful on my question about labor laws; he answered timely and accurately and I appreciate that. I will definitely work with him in the future.
Thank you very much for your preliminary legal advise. Your reply is very responsive and we will definitely use your service when we decide to take legal action.
I very much appreciate the prompt response. Chung & Partners cleared up a piece of confusing wording in my contract and affirmed my understandings about termination. I’m not sure if I will need a lawyer but if j do then I know I will be able to trust Chung & Partners. Thank you.
Chung & Partners not only answered my question but also offered legal advice if needed in future. No doubt such kindness and cooperation is sign of great competence and professional excellence. People like him are source of hope for the oppressed members of society without discrimination of race.
I definitely recommend Chung & Partners. The legal advice he gave me was comforting and anybody can easily tell how intelligent he is by his knowledge and fluent English. It’s comforting for us foreigners to know that there is somebody like him out there to help us.
I’m actually Korean American with dual citizenship, My Korean is good but not good enough to make any sense of Korean labor laws in all it’s intricacies. He replied to all my long winded questions in exact details and quite quickly.
Thank you so much for your gracious and clear, no nonsense advice.
If it comes down to me having to retain services of a capable law firm, yours will be first on my list.
As a foreigner living in Korea, I never thought I would have legal problems. When I unfortunately became involved in a case against me, the feeling of stress was overwhelming. Not only did I have a legal issue to deal with, but it was all happening in Korea. The language barrier, cultural differences and unfamiliar legal system seemed impossible to deal with. However, a friend recommended Chung & Partners to me, to seek advice in my time of trouble. They provided fast responses, realistic knowledge about my situation, and smart advice. Their responses were well-written in English, and the meaning was clear. Chung and Partners helped me to overcome the fear and doubt I had about my case, and to approach the situation realistically and calmly, with the knowledge that they gave me. I would strongly recommend their services to anyone who needs help in a legal situation in Korea. They have proved to be trustworthy and dedicated, as well as professional and knowledgeable. Dealing with legal issues can be difficult. If you find yourself in a tough situation and you need advice or legal help, save yourself some stress and contact Chung and Partners.
Thank you very much Chung & Partners. The free information your provided me is extremely helpful and I will follow up on how my severance situation unfolds. Thank you again!
Anyone looking to get advice or representation on a divorce case in Korea, even if both parties are foreign, need look no further than Chung and Partners. They ae the absolute best option for representation in a divorce case in Korea, with extensive knowledge in both Korean court procedures and the divorce requirements of other countries as well. Fantastic service from start to finish, and the cost was much less than expected. Everything is handled so professionally by their office, and it takes so much stress off the client in difficult circumstances. Highly recommended to any foreigners who require legal representation in Korea.
Hello 😉 I am so happy and thankful that you answer my questions, thank you so much and it’s really a big help for me, more power and God bless;) Big thumbs up to you and to your good office 😉
I wish to recommend Chung & Partners. They recently helped me obtain a document that our family needed for lawful reasons. I very much appreciated his updates along the way, and answered all my questions promptly and prfofessionaly. He not only obtained the document, also had it offically translated and shipped to me very fast. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a good service and law firm, thank you.
Chung & Partners
Thank you very much for the quick reply in assisting with my questions. You are continuously a great help and I was able to get more knowledge on the case. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
Happy New Year!
Many thanks to Chung & Partners for having very competently and kindly helped me resolve a divorce and custody case. As a long-time resident of Korea who had moved back to Canada, it was stressful having to find a Korean lawyer able to provide effective counsel and English-based communication. Chung & Partners did so in a way I had not expected, providing excellent value and highly personalized service.
Thank for your help and free advice Chung & Partners. You have been very helpful. As a foreigner, and doesn’t know my right being divorce to a korean guy, it is nice to know that there are people like you still out there to help someone like me! I really appreciate your kindness and eagerness to lend a helping hand. Thank you very much! You have touch so many lives….Best of luck!
Dear Chung & Partners
In a place where foreigners panic for want of assistance or feel helpless where to turn to, I have found your an invaluable timely response to my queries an antidote to my stress!!
Chung & Partners was very helpful and informative regarding an employment contract issue. As an American living in Korea, it is good to know there is prompt, professional legal expertise available to assist in these matters. Much thanks.
As a ‘foreigner’ living in Korea one experiences many unique challenges, but nothing prepared me for being involved in a civil lawsuit.
Receiving official letters, phone calls etc. in a language I do not fluently speak or read was overwhelming and terrifying.
After asking advice from Chung & Partners (and a quick background check by a Korean friend) I hired him to represent me in my case.
His professionalism, sensitivity, promptness, excellent English abilities and willingness to help me gave me a sense of calm in possibly the most stressful time of my life.
He guided me in what to do and what to expect with the case via detailed, step-by-step communications.
The case ended in a positive manner and I am deeply grateful for his help and services.
Dear Chung & Partners, Thank you so much for your quick and thorough response. I echo all of the other comments that have been made. It is such a relief to know that there are kind, generous people who are willing to help out foreigners trying to navigate the Korean legal system. I applaud you for your professionalism.
I really appreciate your help
thank you so much for answering all my questions it really helps me a lot to have an idea….It is great to know that someone in Korea is working to help us out when we feel hardness.. Thanks for you kindness … i really appreciated…
i wish you to keep helping those who suffers like me..
godbless ….
I really appreciate your help.I thank you so much for answering all my questions it really helps me a lot.It is so nice of you,again thanks a lot for your time.
I never expected such a quick, prompt reply. It is great to know that someone in Korea is working to help us out when we feel helpless. Thanks for you kindness!
I appreciated your fast and kindly reply, thank you very much. Since my wife read your message, my divorce process will come much smoother than what I thought^^*.
Chung & Partners was a tremendous help for me. As an english speaking American, it was very difficult for me to research Korean law because most everything I found was in korean, not english. Not only was Chung & Partners prompt with the response (which was much appreciated with my time-sensitive issue), but he was also so curteous and very knowledgeable.
Chung & Partners was extremely helpful. Their quick response was greatly appreciated, especially since I was dealing with a time-sensitive issue. Being a first generation Korean-American, he was able to answer my question about Korean family law…in english. This was very helpful since all of the research I had been doing on my own would return results in korean, not english. Thank you Chung & Partners!!!
First of all, thank you, Chung & Partners, for the quick response to my very complicated divorce question.
Being in America and dealing with a Korean divorce is very overwhelming and complicated so having this service available to assist with answers to my questions is just priceless. The responses were accurate and thorough. I feel confident that if I have any further questions I can come to you with all of them.
Thank you so much Chung & Partners, you provide an amazing service, which I highly recommend.
I’d like to thank Chung & Partners for the superb help regarding my complex child safety and custody situation.
The information provided was friendly yet concise and accurate. It has given me a sense of drive and purpose through realizing that I can achieve a better life for my child.
For any foreigners needing legal advice or help in Korea, I fully recommend Chung & Partners, by far the best law firm I’ve come across here, excellent English to boot!
I can honestly say that the excellent comments left for Chung & Partners are well-deserved. I didn’t expect a response to my long and detailed questions but the lawyer sent me a prompt and well-written response to my questions which I found to be very clear and on-point. As a foreign licensed attorney who is not familiar with Korean law, it was refreshing to interact with someone as professional and well-versed in the law as Chung & Partners. I would not hesitate to refer potential clients to him or utilize his professional services in the event that it is required. Thanks very much.

Mr. Wonil Chung provided some timely advice when I needed help. If I need further legal help, I will not hesitate to approach him again. I sincerely thank him for his assitance to me. I love Korea and I’m thankful for wonderful people like Wonil Chung. God bless him!
Thanks Chung & Partners so much for your speedy and informative reply. It’s truly a great relief to know that someone like you is helping foreigners to understand the complexities of the legal system. A true professional!
Thank you so much for giving your time to answer some of the questions that I could hardly ask to other Koreans because of language barrier. It’s a great relief for foreigners like us to have someone like you around here.
God Bless and may you be successful in your great endeavor!
we are hopefull, that he can do a great job for us. He was so kind to e-mail us, and give us advise as to what he maybe able to do. Thank you so much for at least some hope.
Thank you for your response. I am so grateful that you could provide this information on a starting point for me and I feel confident that if I continue further I will undoubtedly ask you and your firm to assist me.
We are trying to reach you via email about our case but apparently you are not receiving our emails. Do you have another email address we can try to contact you at?
Prompt, informative, and clear response to my question. I now have an idea as to how I should handle my dispute, thanks to Chung & Partners. Kamsahabnida!

I need to “serve” a divorce paper to a spouse who in South Korea but I am unfamiliar with the process in Korea. Please let me know who I can retain for this service from Korea. Your help is much appreciated.
This legal consultation service was very helpful.
I needed advice about the Korean law (even though I do not live in Korea).
I was so glad they were fluent at English too.
Very helpful!!!
Thank you for your prompt reply. I didn’t expect any reply immediately. Your answer was really clear and helps me to get a better idea of my situation.
Thanks again!
Thank you so much for answering my email in full. Actually I was not expecting a response, so I was so suprised and grateful that you responded back to me in such clarity. It’s comforting to know that you cared enough to answer my question.
Best of luck in the new year!

I dearly appreciate and honor Chung & Partners for giving me timely, clear and thorough responses to my several questions. The lawyer is very professional, and this Law Office seems excellent for assisting us internationals with the Korean courts.
I really appreciate their quick and thorough response. Their professional advice helped us not only to make decisions but also to avoid spending extra time and budget on court procedures. Dealt with visa and family issues and now can definitely recommend their assistance.
Dear Chung & Partners team,
I just wanted to let you know I received my F-6 visa! I’m back in Korea now, and my wife and family are so happy! I really want to thank you for your help!
Dear Chung & Partners
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my questions about family law matters in Korea. Your quick and thorough responses have put mine and my family’s hearts at ease. Your dedication to foreigner’s legal problems is unmatched. Thanks again for all your help!
I first discovered this law firm via his informative blog on askkorealaw.com – upon my first enquiry the lawyer was instantly helpful and was able to grasp the situation I was facing well. Since then he has been a trusted source of information and someone I would return to again for guidance and counsel.
I spoke with Neil today about some issues I was having with my job. He was sympathetic and very knowledgeable. I feel so much better about the situation my school has put me in. He was able to describe Korean law to me so I know that what I have done is not illegal and that I do not have to worry about anything. He really took the time to ask follow up questions and give me the most accurate answers possible. I am so grateful that I found this company as a resource. I highly recommend working with them. If anything escalates at my job and I need to hire someone I will be coming back here!
Thank you so much for taking the time to look everything over and offer your insight. It has been extremely helpful. You have my respect and appreciation. You have played an invaluable part in my understanding of my case and definitely factor into the steps I need to take going forward.
Thank you very much for your fast and detailled reply. My question would never have been answered without your kind free help. I wish you the best, always!

I just want to say thank you for your help and advice. It’s really difficult to find knowledgeable and English speaking help in Korea. Not only were you quick with your reply you provided me with invaluable information. Again thank you and I definitely will be recommending you to my family and friends!

I’m actually Korean American with dual citizenship, My Korean is good but not good enough to make any sense of Korean labor laws in all it’s intricacies. He replied to all my long winded questions in exact details and quite quickly.
Thank you so much for your gracious and clear, no nonsense advice.
If it comes down to me having to retain services of a capable law firm, yours will be first on my list.
My inquiry was promptly answered with clear and concise reasoning. Thank you so much!
He gave me total clarity with regard to my request. He also responds timeously. I definitely recommend him.
As a foreigner living in Korea, I never thought I would have legal problems. When I unfortunately became involved in a case against me, the feeling of stress was overwhelming. Not only did I have a legal issue to deal with, but it was all happening in Korea. The language barrier, cultural differences and unfamiliar legal system seemed impossible to deal with. However, a friend recommended Chung & Partners to me, to seek advice in my time of trouble. They provided fast responses, realistic knowledge about my situation, and smart advice. Their responses were well-written in English, and the meaning was clear. Chung and Partners helped me to overcome the fear and doubt I had about my case, and to approach the situation realistically and calmly, with the knowledge that they gave me. I would strongly recommend their services to anyone who needs help in a legal situation in Korea. They have proved to be trustworthy and dedicated, as well as professional and knowledgeable. Dealing with legal issues can be difficult. If you find yourself in a tough situation and you need advice or legal help, save yourself some stress and contact Chung and Partners.
They gave me thorough and quick legal advice. If I need representation I will definitely go with them.
Thank you for your reply. If things turn for the worse, I plan to seek further assistance with him and his firm’s services! Thanks again!
I emailed to ask a question and Chung & Partners replied very quickly and has been very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for your help with my concerns and the quick response you gave!
Thank you very much Chung & Partners. The free information your provided me is extremely helpful and I will follow up on how my severance situation unfolds. Thank you again!

I came across your website when inquiring about Korean Labor Laws and maternity leave. There is a lot of relevant, helpful information on your website
Many thanks to Chung & Partners for having very competently and kindly helped me resolve a divorce and custody case. As a long-time resident of Korea who had moved back to Canada, it was stressful having to find a Korean lawyer able to provide effective counsel and English-based communication. Chung & Partners did so in a way I had not expected, providing excellent value and highly personalized service.
With appreciation

Thanks for the quick response to my question. It was very helpful.
Inquired about an issue regarding severance pay here in Korea and was quickly answered. Thank you for your free advice. It was much appreciated.
Chung & Partners was very helpful and informative regarding an employment contract issue. As an American living in Korea, it is good to know there is prompt, professional legal expertise available to assist in these matters. Much thanks.
As a ‘foreigner’ living in Korea one experiences many unique challenges, but nothing prepared me for being involved in a civil lawsuit.
Receiving official letters, phone calls etc. in a language I do not fluently speak or read was overwhelming and terrifying.
After asking advice from Chung & Partners (and a quick background check by a Korean friend) I hired him to represent me in my case.
His professionalism, sensitivity, promptness, excellent English abilities and willingness to help me gave me a sense of calm in possibly the most stressful time of my life.
He guided me in what to do and what to expect with the case via detailed, step-by-step communications.
The case ended in a positive manner and I am deeply grateful for his help and services.
Chung & Partners has answered my questions regarding Korean law clearly and promptly. I appreciate this.
Fantastic resource for those with employment questions and have no idea where to turn to.
Thank you very much for your swift and thorough reply
Dear Chung & Partners, Thank you so much for your quick and thorough response. I echo all of the other comments that have been made. It is such a relief to know that there are kind, generous people who are willing to help out foreigners trying to navigate the Korean legal system. I applaud you for your professionalism.

It was very great of you to spend your time to reply to my questions.
Thank you for your quick response. It does help me. Thank you again, that is so nice of you to advice foreigner like us. God bless you.
Chung & Partners was a tremendous help for me. As an english speaking American, it was very difficult for me to research Korean law because most everything I found was in korean, not english. Not only was Chung & Partners prompt with the response (which was much appreciated with my time-sensitive issue), but he was also so curteous and very knowledgeable.
Thank you for your help Chung & Partners!
Chung & Partners was extremely helpful. Their quick response was greatly appreciated, especially since I was dealing with a time-sensitive issue. Being a first generation Korean-American, he was able to answer my question about Korean family law…in english. This was very helpful since all of the research I had been doing on my own would return results in korean, not english. Thank you Chung & Partners!!!
Thanks for your quick response. I’m sure I have more questions and need your advise in the near future. Your advice was very helpful.
Thanks again.
First of all, thank you, Chung & Partners, for the quick response to my very complicated divorce question.
Being in America and dealing with a Korean divorce is very overwhelming and complicated so having this service available to assist with answers to my questions is just priceless. The responses were accurate and thorough. I feel confident that if I have any further questions I can come to you with all of them.
Thank you so much Chung & Partners, you provide an amazing service, which I highly recommend.
I’d like to thank Chung & Partners for the superb help regarding my complex child safety and custody situation.
The information provided was friendly yet concise and accurate. It has given me a sense of drive and purpose through realizing that I can achieve a better life for my child.
For any foreigners needing legal advice or help in Korea, I fully recommend Chung & Partners, by far the best law firm I’ve come across here, excellent English to boot!
Thank you for your advice and quick response! J. H.
Many thanks for a quick and reassuring response.
I can honestly say that the excellent comments left for Chung & Partners are well-deserved. I didn’t expect a response to my long and detailed questions but the lawyer sent me a prompt and well-written response to my questions which I found to be very clear and on-point. As a foreign licensed attorney who is not familiar with Korean law, it was refreshing to interact with someone as professional and well-versed in the law as Chung & Partners. I would not hesitate to refer potential clients to him or utilize his professional services in the event that it is required. Thanks very much.
