Firm overview

Kobre & Kim is a conflict-free global law firm focused on disputes and investigations, often involving fraud and misconduct.

The firm is aggressive and trial-ready, uniquely integrated to address clients’ underlying legal, financial, commercial or reputational problems. In issues from entities monetising (or defending against) international claims to ultra-high-net-worth individuals looking to preserve their assets, liberty and reputation, we pursue solutions that address clients’ real problems.

We can advocate in situations involving overlapping institutional interests, and other lawyers regularly appoint us as special advocates.

Our cases often involve co-ordinated proceedings in multiple jurisdictions, including the US, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. We have offices both onshore and offshore – in global enforcement centres like London and New York, and in key jurisdictions such as the Cayman Islands, Delaware, Cyprus and the British Virgin Islands.
