Daeryun promotes the establishment of an incorporated association, ‘Relationship Law’… Former Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo as Chairman of the Board

Strengthening social solidarity through public interest activities, litigation relief, regular sponsorship, volunteer work, etc.

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 25th that it will establish a public interest association, ‘Relationship Law’, and begin full-scale public interest activities for the underprivileged who are in legal blind spots.

‘Relationship Law’ is a name that combines the ‘relationship’ between people and the ‘law’ of a law firm, and contains the meaning of strengthening social solidarity and realizing public value within the bounds of the law. Through this, we plan to help vulnerable groups in desperate need of legal support and contribute to creating a more fair and just society.

In particular, former Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo was appointed as the first chairman of the relationship law. Chairman Kim is a member of the legal profession who entered public service as a prosecutor at the Incheon District Prosecutors' Office in 1994 and served as Vice Minister of Justice (61st) and Prosecutor General (44th).

Daeryun recently obtained approval to establish a non-profit corporation from the Ministry of Justice, and is currently in the process of being designated as a public interest corporation.

After the launch of the public interest corporation, Daeryun plans to provide legal counseling and litigation support to vulnerable groups such as single-parent families, the elderly living alone, and the disabled. Beyond simple legal support, we plan to also provide regular sponsorship and volunteer work, and expand sustainable social contribution activities.

In addition, educational support for future legal professionals will be strengthened. We plan to contribute to the spread of a culture of public interest in the legal profession by operating mentoring, supporter, and internship programs for law school students and students who wish to enter law school.

Previously, Daeryun was selected as the ‘2024 Best Job Creation Company’ by the Credit Guarantee Fund in recognition of its efforts to realize various public interests, such as regular recruitment of women with (interrupted) careers, creation of jobs for the disabled, and activation of parental leave.

With the establishment of this ‘relationship law’, Daeryun plans to pursue more systematic and continuous public interest activities.

Kim Kook-il, CEO of Daeryun Management, said, “The role of a truly large law firm is not to limit legal services to business, but to utilize them to create social value.” He added, “Through the establishment of this public interest corporation, we will provide practical help to all those who need the benefits of the law and contribute to the realization of a fair and just society.”
