Since 2008, Jipyong has advised on diverse matters including financial issues on energy resources, acquisition of a local bank, distribution and retail business matters, investment in forestry, agriculture, mining, real estate, and dispute resolution that the Korean companies may face in the course of conducting their business.
Building on such experience and knowledge, we have entered into alliances with top-tier local law firms in order to assist Korean businesses in making entry into the energy and natural resources as well as infrastructure markets in the regions.
As one of the most active Korean law firms to expand into strategic markets globally, and to advise Korean companies on their overseas expansion, since the setting up of Korea Desk through strategic alliance with AHP and NSMP, two of the pre-eminent law firms in Indonesia, we established a strategic alliance with Arruanpitu & Partners, an Indonesian law firm, in 2015. Korea Desk, consisting of Korean attorneys dispatched by Jipyong and Indonesian attorneys who are boasting extensive experience in the local market, provides cost-effective, accurate and high-quality services in the area.
