South Korean law firm Yulchon said Monday that it had named Kim Yong-sang, a US lawyer specializing in international litigation and arbitration, as co-head of its international dispute resolution team.<\/p>\n

Kim had previously worked as co-representative of the Seoul office of Los Angeles-based international law firm O\u2019Melveny & Myers since 2016.<\/p>\n

Kim is noted for his 15\u00a0years of experience and expertise in US litigation involving antitrust, anti-corruption, international arbitration and white-collar criminal defense cases.<\/p>\n

His portfolio includes a case before the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes, where he represented the Korean government against US private equity firm Lone Star Funds in a treaty-based investor-state dispute.<\/p>\n

He also represented Korea\u2019s Defense Acquisition Program Administration in 2019 in a California court, winning a judgment of $4.1 million against a Korean American who had guaranteed DAPA subcontractors that failed to return their deposits to the agency after contracts were nullified.<\/p>\n

Kim earned his juris doctor, cum laude, from Cornell Law School, his master\u2019s degree from Yale University Divinity School and his bachelor\u2019s degree from Yonsei University in Seoul.<\/p>\n
