About Shinsegaelaw
A Focus on What Matters
in People’s Lives
Shinsegaelaw is a Korean law firm that practises only two areas: divorce and inheritance.
Founded by Dr. Insup Cho, Korea’s first certified family law specialist, the firm has grown to about twenty lawyers, all of whom work exclusively on family matters. Our head office is next to the Seoul Family Court, and we have offices in Suwon, Incheon, Daejeon and Namyangju.
Because we do nothing else, we handle a very large number of family cases each year. That volume gives us something a general practice cannot offer: current, first-hand knowledge of how Korean family judges actually decide property division, custody, child support and inheritance disputes.
What We Do
Our Practice Areas
We provide focused and practical advice
across the full range of family law matters.
Property division
Including business interests, unlisted shares and assets held abroad
Custody, visitation and child support
Inheritance disputes
Forced heirship (yuryubun) claims and contested wills
Enforcement of family judgments
Including orders for performance and asset tracing
Cross-border family matters
Involving foreign spouses, foreign law or foreign judgments
Our Approach
How We Work
Every case is led by a lawyer who practises family law full time. We write briefs the court can read once and understand. We tell clients what a Korean court is likely to do, in a realistic range, before they decide how to proceed.
We stand with our clients
at life’s turning points,
with deep expertise and
genuine care.
