[The Korea Economic Daily] Large Law Firms Enter ‘Immigration and Nationality’ services as Foreigners Increase

On November 17, 2024, the Korea Economic Daily reported on the refugee litigation represented by Lee & Ko’s Pro Bono Committee. The Korea Economic Daily introduced that “large law firms are increasingly entering the legal market regarding immigration and nationality, which was once considered the area of individual practitioners”, and added that “Lee & Ko provides legal pro bono support by signing an MOU with NANCEN, a non-profit organization and conducting more than three refugee litigations per year”. Further, “Lee & Ko has won three administrative cases consecutively by actively justifying the purpose of the refugee status screening referral system in cases that led to litigation due to the failure to refer to the refugee status screening during the immigration process”.
