Pureum Law Office has provided specialized legal assistance to foreigners in Korea since 2014. Over 2.5 million foreigners who are living in Korea have limited access to good lawyers due to language barriers, lack of information, and cultural differences. In Korea, many lawyers hesitate to take cases involving foreigners, as such matters often require in-depth knowledge of immigration law and foreign legal systems. We strive to bridge this gap by enhancing access to legal services for foreign individuals, families and business partners, both in Korea and internationally. PLO also handles corporate legal affairs, particularly for foreign invested SMEs and start-ups.

Over the past decade, Pureum has succeeded in over 3,000 cases, becoming a trusted partner for clients navigating South Korea’s legal landscape.
