Daeryun Law Firm joins hands with large Chinese law firm ‘Tahota’ to expand global legal network

Daeryun Law Firm, which has recently strengthened cooperation with law firms in the United States and major Asian countries, announced on the 18th that it had signed a strategic business agreement (MOU) with Tahota Law Office, a large Chinese law firm. This partnership was promoted to help companies from both countries advance overseas and improve the quality of global comprehensive legal services.

Tahota Law Firm, which opened in 2000, is currently one of the largest law firms in China with over 4,000 lawyers. Under the banner of ‘connecting the world centered on China,’ it is a place with global influence by establishing a network in 36 major hubs around the world, including Washington, D.C., Sydney, Australia, and Bangkok, Thailand.

The agreement ceremony held at Daeryun's main office in Yeouido, Seoul on the 12th was attended by Daeryun CEO Park Dong-il, director Lee Ye-seom, attorney Kyung-won Yoon, and attorney Jong-soo Shin. On the Tahota side, a large number of key executives, including Soo-tae Jeong, head of law office headquarters (currently vice-president of the Chinese Bar Association), Chun-gwang Chang, head of Harbin, and head of Chongqing Koh Liang, attended and showed great interest in the Korean market.

Starting with this agreement, the two companies plan to closely cooperate in various fields, including corporate legal advice, investment/M&A, joint performance of international disputes and cross-border litigation, intellectual property protection, visas, and immigration. In particular, Daeryun decided to help Tahota Law Firm successfully enter the Korean market based on the practical know-how it has accumulated, while also sharing its expertise through human exchanges and joint seminars.

Jeong Soo-tae, CEO of Tahota headquarters, expressed his commitment to providing professional cross-border legal services by saying about this agreement, saying, "Like the old Chinese saying, 'Even if we are far away, we are like neighbors as long as we share our hearts,' we are happy to be able to plan the future with Daeryun, which has established a solid presence in Korea."

Park Dong-il, CEO of Daeryun, also emphasized, "The fact that China's top law firm chose Daeryun as a partner is a result of recognition of our expertise and potential," and added, "Using this agreement as a stepping stone, we will go beyond Asia and become a global comprehensive law firm."

Meanwhile, Daeryun has already established close partnerships with other large law firms in China, such as Yingke and Hengdu, and is steadily expanding partnerships in the United States, Japan, Vietnam, etc., providing legal solutions specialized for global business.
