"I reached out to Pereum Law Office via email regarding my case and potentially hiring them in September 2022. I corresponded with Shelley Han who was incredibly helpful, in fact, perhaps too helpful since I was able to resolve my case without having to hire them at all! Nonetheless, I am considering pursuing this case in the future, and I will definitely be..." Read more

"Pureum Law Office helped me to obtain documentation from the Jong-no Office in Seoul VERY fast. The Jong-no Office website had no useful information about the process and the US Embassy were not much help either. They responded to me fast, followed clear instructions, and got the job done. I would use their services again!"

He suggested the alternative way and that is all I got although it is not easy way for me. One of his job is to make a client understand the gap between the view of law and the..." Read more
