A Korean IP Firm Built for Foreign Counsel
PATENT & LAW FIRM SODAM is positioned for foreign associates who need more than a translation of Korean procedure. The page now presents the firm as Korean counsel for disputes, trials, appeals, evidence review, claim charts, and English reporting.
The statistical figures below are historical aggregate data from SODAM’s analysis of public Korean decisions and judgments. Data cutoff: September 17, 2026; last updated: September 23, 2026. Result-classification corrections reflected on September 20, 2026. They are provided for issue framing and strategic discussion only, and do not guarantee any case result.
Decision Data Foreign Counsel Can Use
Each card opens the English explanation first. The Korean source link remains visible on the same card so foreign counsel can verify the underlying Korean practice or statistics page.
Korean Matter Gateways

Selected Korean Trial and Litigation Case Notes
For search and AI visibility, case notes should show the reasoning pattern, not only the result. The English page links to the Korean case-note index as supporting evidence.
