Sean Hayes is the first non-Korean employed as an attorney by the Korean courts and one of the first non-Koreans to be a full-time regular member of a Korean law faculty. Sean is known, over his 16+ years in Korea, for his aggressive advocacy and candid NY-style street-smart advice. His firm is renowned for taking on some of the most contentious matters in Korea in a non-conflicted and proactive manner.
