Soft Landing Consulting to Enhance Legal Compliance for its Clients

Effective October 1, 2009, Soft Landing Consulting will be able to offer a fuller and more legally aware perspective to its consulting services.  Soft Landing has tied up with Joowon Attorneys at Law, a Seoul-based law firm with offices also in New York, Hong Kong, and Shenzhen.

Joowon was established this year by Managing Partner Kun K. Lee and former senior judges, senior prosecutors, experienced attorneys, international attorneys and custom, immigration, tax, accounting and business professionals.  Mr. Kun K. Lee was a member of the National Assembly, Prosecutor General, head of the National Police Force, and was a partner for another leading Korean law firm.  He graduated from Seoul National University and Harvard Law School.

Joowon is a fast growing law firm that comprises over 100+ plus professionals. This aggressive, full-services law firm prides itself on uncompromised legal support and on hiring only the most experienced, respected, and connected lawyers and other professionals. 

Soft Landing Consulting will work in concert with New York attorney Sean Hayes.  Mr. Hayes heads up Joowon’s International Corporate Practice Team.  Mr. Hayes is well regarded from his long experience in Korea offering legal expertise in foreign investment, corporate law, M & A, franchising, constitutional law and litigation.   Mr. Hayes has handled transactions for clients including Fortune 500 companies, Korean conglomerates, franchisors, real estate developers, and SMEs.  He brings a unique experience-based perspective to Korean law.  Mr. Hayes worked for the Constitutional Court of Korea for six years and is one of the most well-known foreign lawyers amongst Korean judges and prosecutors.

Together, Soft Landing and Joowon expect to offer a unique and pragmatic balance between the law and sound business practices and strategies to both multinational and domestic clients as part of their ongoing services.  Soft Landing will continue focusing on “making sales happen,” but from this month the sales consulting and training firm will be doing so with a stronger foundation in international and Korean law.
