Asset Tracing and Provisional Seizure in Korea
Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Korea
Early identification and preservation of assets are often critical in successful debt recovery.
Our firm assists foreign clients in applying for provisional seizure of bank accounts, receivables, and property in Korea to prevent asset dissipation before or during litigation.
If a foreign company has already obtained a court judgment or arbitral award outside Korea, enforcement in Korea may be possible through recognition proceedings.
