Intellectual Property Practice Group, Korea Practice Team Leader
Yun Kim leads Nixon Peabody’s Intellectual Property (IP) practice group’s Korea Team, counseling clients in Korea and the US on IP matters and facilitating communication and collaboration between firms and companies during IP litigation and disputes.
I have extensive experience working across both public and private sectors and serve as a trusted advisor for clients based in Korea who are seeking to enter the US market. I have a deep understanding of the interdisciplinary legal needs of Korean businesses and bring more than a decade of experience handling IP portfolio management and litigation. I was recently recognized by KOTRA after receiving the President’s Commendation Award and the Korean Customs Commissioner’s Commendation Award.
Prior to joining Nixon Peabody, I served as general counsel of the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency’s (KOTRA) Los Angeles office and oversaw the launch of the Korea Intellectual Property Protection Agency (KOIPA) North America.
In these roles, I engaged in partnerships with Korean and US law firms for IP matters, advising on IP-related lawsuits, contracts, and customs issues for Korean businesses.
Gradually securing necessary intellectual property rights from the outset can yield significant benefits. This systematic acquisition of IP will serve as the cornerstone in inevitable IP disputes. In the event of a dispute, we will provide tailored solutions for companies and work closely with our clients to determine the most effective and efficient resolution.
