EXPERIENCED COMMERCIAL LITIGATORI am a civil litigator who advises domestic and multi-national companies in a wide range of commercial disputes. I focus primarily on IP litigation, particularly patents and copyrights.CUSTOMIZED APPROACH TO CLIENT REPRESENTATIONSI bring an uncommon perspective to client representations because I used to be a client. For two years, I managed overseas disputes for Korea’s largest entertainment and media company, where I worked closely with many outside counsel. That experience gave me unique insight into (1) how litigation must be viewed within the context of a company’s broader business objectives, and (2) how outside counsel can be effective partners in furthering those objectives.I keep those principles in mind when approaching each client representation. My clients range from emerging companies in less mature markets to publicly traded companies with teams of sophisticated in-house counsel. A one-size-fits-all approach simply will not work. Hence, at the outset of each engagement, I home in on each client’s paramount business objectives. Then, I tailor an approach to preserve those objectives as effectively as possible.FOCUS ON MEDIA AND TECHNOLOGY COMPANIESGiven my technical background—I have a degree in Applied and Computation Mathematics from Caltech—I have a facility with technology and more complex technical concepts. I have leveraged that ability to advise media and technology companies with their disputes involving patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, thereby helping those companies reduce barriers to innovation.HELPING KOREAN CLIENTS WITH THEIR U.S.-FACING DISPUTESHaving lived and worked in Korea for two years, I am fluent in Korean. More importantly, however, I am proficient in the nuances and subtleties of Korean business culture. I am therefore ideally positioned to advise Korean clients in U.S. litigation matters.
