Out of all the lawyers that I’ve spoken to about my case, Simon and the Pureum Law Office has been the most helpful and trustworthy. Although I’m not in Korea (I’ve moved back to Arizona), Simon has been able to prosecute in my stead, which has really taken a load off of me. This law office is very foreigner friendly and knowledgeable in Korean law, and I recommend them for whatever legal situation that you might have.

Huge relief to have found such a competent attorney
Simon Lee just sent us the final payment after he acted on our behalf and successfully sued a KR company that had defaulted in payment of almost $50K.
Being based in California, I found Pureum Law online and knew early on that this was the way to go.
Huge relief to have found such a competent attny in KR, who obviously knew how to handle our situation. And also, because of his excellent English ability, the daunting language problem was also removed.

Thank you for caring for our family!
Simon and his staff have been extremely helpful with my father’s case. Because my father doesn’t speak much Korean, I was worried about how he would be able to handle the legal matters on his own. Simon has gone above and beyond our expectations with his legal representation. It is clear he will fight for what he believes is lawfully correct and ethical. Thank you so much for all that you do and for caring for our family.

I would bend over backwards to recommend this law office
My story was very complicated. I’m from the US and married a Russian woman while living and working in Korea. After living together for several years in other countries, mainly China, we separated. After doing research online about how difficult this process can be, I finally found Pureum Law Office. From the start they were able to answer all my complex questions and the divorce process started painlessly. I can’t even begin to tell you how happy and relieved I am that our cooperation has been successful. I would bend over backwards to recommend this law office to anyone needing expert service in the field of law.

Flawless execution
I would have no hesitation is recommending Simon Lee as a lawyer. He agreed a plan with myself and executed it flawlessly in about 6 weeks. At all stages he kept me informed and involved and delivered ahead of schedule.
