Expanded M&A power Shin & Kim has recently strengthened its corporate and M&A practice with the addition of a partner from Bae Kim & Lee, signaling an expanded deal capacity and readiness to win larger cross-border transactions.

White-Collar expansion The launch of a dedicated White-Collar Criminal Defense Team indicates a growing advisory and defense service line, presenting cross-sell opportunities to clients needing compliance, investigations, and crisis management.

Award credibility Multiple high-profile awards in 2025–2026, including Grand Prizes for Legal Advisory, Public Interest, and service excellence, bolster reputation and can be leveraged to win complex mandates from Fortune 500 and conglomerate clients.

Strategic focus areas Notable strengths in M&A, banking & finance, antitrust, labor, projects & energy, construction, real estate, dispute resolution, and international trade suggest cross-selling potential across multiple departments for large international clients.

Growth readiness With a revenue range of several hundred million and a sizeable team, Shin & Kim is positioned to pursue mid- to large-scale engagements, international clients, and complex regulatory matters, enabling scalable client acquisition and expansion opportunities.
