Shin & Kim, a major law firm in South Korea, has opened its first office in HCM City.

Located in Diamond Plaza in District 1, the company provides a one-stop legal shop that offers comprehensive and prompt legal services from Vietnamese professionals in cooperation with professionals in their Seoul, Beijing and Shanghai offices.

The company said it opened the office to meet the high demand in Viet Nam, which is one of the largest trading partners of South Korea.

As more Korean companies enter the Vietnamese market, the demand for legal services is expected to increase steadily.

Established in 1981, Shin & Kim has grown in close partnership with its clients.

It has more than 360 Korean and foreign lawyers admitted to practice in numerous jurisdictions around the world and over 80 other professionals, including accountants, tax accountants, patent attorneys and customs specialists.

The company provides legal services in a broad range of practice areas such as mergers and acquisitions, finance, litigation, arbitration, taxation, intellectual property and labor, to a diverse clientele, ranging from domestic and multinational corporations to financial institutions and small-medium enterprises to state-owned corporations and governments and their agencies. — VNS
