Specialized in the field of intellectual property rights, including serving as Chief Prosecutor of the 2nd Criminal Division at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office
Attorney Lim “Social justice that I have realized for 30 years in public office… I will protect my clients’ rights.”

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 10th that it will hire Lim Seok-pil (Judicial Research and Training Institute 23rd class) as general attorney and strengthen its capabilities in criminal cases, including violent crimes.

Attorney Lim graduated from Seoul National University, passed the 33rd bar exam, and was appointed as a prosecutor at the Daejeon District Prosecutors' Office in 1994. Since then, he has accumulated expertise in the fields of violent crimes, special crimes, public security, and intellectual property rights at the Busan District Prosecutors' Office and the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office.

Attorney Lim, well-known as a ‘strong criminal,’ has served as a prosecutor for over 30 years and has handled major cases such as violent cases such as murder and sex crimes, as well as crimes against public officials and maritime accidents. In particular, during the sinking of the Oryong, in which 53 out of 60 crew members died or disappeared due to unreasonable fishing despite bad weather, as the chief prosecutor, he identified that it was a man-made disaster caused by the shipping company's insensitivity to safety and poor management and supervision, and indicted 15 people involved.

Afterwards, he worked as a professor at the Legal Research and Training Institute to train younger students, and after retiring as the second chief prosecutor of the Busan District Prosecutors' Office in 2015, he has been working as a lawyer. After opening his practice, he expanded his expertise beyond the criminal field to the public sector and served as a legal advisor to the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH). Furthermore, as chairman of the Real Estate Lease Mediation Committee of the Korea Real Estate Agency, he took the lead in resolving complex public welfare disputes.

Attorney Lim said, "I have tried to realize social justice through over 30 years of public service," and added, "Now, at Daeryun, I will listen more closely to the voices of clients and provide differentiated legal services based on accumulated experience and legal knowledge to become a reliable helper in protecting clients' legitimate rights."

Daeryun CEO Kim Kook-il said, “Attorney Lim is an authority well-versed in various investigations, and is a talent with unrivaled capabilities in resolving complex and difficult cases. With his addition, Daeryun’s criminal expertise will take a leap forward, and we will be able to provide more reliable legal services to our clients.”
