Our approach

For matters connecting Poland and South Korea, we coordinate with trusted local partners — and where the matter falls within our priority partner jurisdictions, we engage lawyers from the partner office directly. The Polish-side partner remains the client's single point of contact throughout. Approach outline is provided within 48 hours of initial engagement.

Coordination with local partners. Counsel introductions in South Korea are made on a case-by-case basis. We do not maintain exclusive referral arrangements. The selection criterion is fit to the specific matter: regulatory expertise, sector knowledge, transaction size, and (for litigation) seat-court familiarity. Engagement letters always disclose any introducing-counsel fees.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly do you respond on a South Korea matter?

Within two business hours during CET working hours, the Polish-side partner reads your message and decides whether the matter requires local South Korea counsel coordination, network deployment, or sole Polish handling. The first approach outline — scope, timeline, and fee proposal — is sent within 48 hours of initial engagement, with no commitment from your side.

Do you handle South Korea law directly?

No — and we say so transparently. KORDECKI & Partners is admitted to practise Polish law. For substantive South Korea legal questions we engage trusted local counsel, either through our partner network (for the seven network jurisdictions) or via curated partner-firm relationships maintained since 2009. The Polish partner remains your single point of contact and coordinates billing, scope and timeline.

When should I escalate a South Korea matter?

As early as the moment you suspect cross-border exposure. Many South Korea–Poland matters compress quickly under regulatory deadlines (notification windows, tax-filing dates, employment notice periods). Sending a 5–10 sentence description costs nothing — and a partner will tell you within two hours whether immediate action is needed.
