Divorce, Domestic Violence
Our Firm handles many divorce, domestic violence, and dating DV cases.
DV is a serious violation of women's human rights, and we recommend that you do not suffer alone, but rather consult with our office to obtain legal protection and support.
Please also consult with the police, women's centers, etc. First of all, you need to evacuate and escape from the violence, receive public assistance for shelter and establish your life, and at the same time, proceed with legal procedures such as divorce or a protection order.
You are not at fault. You are in trouble, but you can always solve it.
Please contact us as soon as possible to discuss your situation with our firm, which has achieved the solutions women desire through protection orders, mediation, and lawsuits.

Compliance, Risk Management, Risk Management, and Corporate Governance
Our firm has expertise in the areas of compliance, risk management, and CSR. In recent years, the international trend in corporate compliance has been to consider the supply chain and value chain from an ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) perspective and to fulfill human rights due diligence based on the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. When expanding into emerging countries, companies are required to accurately identify human rights, social, and environmental issues that need to be taken into consideration even before problems arise, and to build a compliance system. Labor and human rights issues discovered in the supply chain must be properly identified and corrected from a risk management perspective, and measures to prevent recurrence must be formulated to ensure accountability to consumers, investors, and society in general. Our experienced attorneys can assist in the formulation of internal human rights guidelines, specific implementation of human rights due diligence, and risk management measures, as well as provide analysis of the current situation, advice, and assistance in formulating such measures, based on the latest information.
