The firm is to be headed by  Michael Ng who joins the firm as a partner and who will also run the firm's IP litigation practice. Co-founding partner of the firm Steve Kobre said: 'We have seen a substantial increase in litigation involving technology and IP-heavy companies, particularly with regard to cross-border matters. The San Francisco location and Mr. Ng’s experience in the field adds another dimension to our purely litigation practice.'

Conflict-free

Outside of the US, Kobre & Kim also has offices in London, Hong Kong, the Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands. It says that its 'conflict-free profile allows the firm to litigate and arbitrate in the world’s leading jurisdictions' in financial and others sectors. Source: Business Wire
