English-Speaking Arbitration Attorneys in Korea

International arbitrations between Korean companies and American, Australian, British, Chinese, Indian, German, and other nation companies are on the increase. Regrettably, few Korean attorneys are capable of handling international arbitration cases in the English language, because of the lack of experience in complex international arbitrations and the lack of adequate English language skills. The reality is Korea has few English-speaking arbitration attorneys capable of handling complex international arbitration matters, thus, many firms have turned to foreign attorneys to fill this glaring gap with varying success.   Sean Hayes is one of the authors of the Korean Law Blog.  English-speaking Korean attorneys contribute to this blog.
