Attorney Chon Hyeong Hwan, a former police officer, officially opened Mega-X Law Office in Seocho-gu, Seoul, on the 8th.

According to the legal community on the 23rd, Managing Partner Chon Hyeong Hwan graduated from the Korean National Police University and served for approximately 13 years at institutions including the Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency and Jeonju Wansan Police Station, where he led investigative teams dedicated to sex crimes, domestic violence, and juvenile cases.

He later became an attorney and joined YK Law Firm, where he served as head of the police criminal defense division and as a partner attorney. At YK, he established a police response center composed of former police officer-attorneys and advisors, and led the handling of numerous major criminal cases reported in the media.

Mega-X is structured to specialize in criminal case response. It provides legal services throughout the entire process, from the initial stages of police investigations to trial proceedings.

Managing Partner Chon said, “Mega-X’s goal is to provide practical solutions to individuals and companies in crisis, based on hands-on experience with the investigative processes of the police and prosecution.”

Mega-X first established an overseas office in Bangkok, Thailand, in January. Chon explained, “This opening marks the full-scale launch of an international criminal law platform connecting Korea and Thailand.”

Mega-X’s Thailand office provides on-site response services for Koreans and foreigners involved in criminal cases, including drug offenses, sex crimes, and immigration violations. These services include interpretation accompaniment, police appearance support, and assistance with bail applications.

In addition, the office provides corporate legal advisory services, including foreign corporate establishment in Thailand, visa and work permit consultation, applications to the Thailand Board of Investment (BOI), and trademark registration.

Mega-X is also preparing for future expansion into Southeast Asia and the establishment of a global partnership network.
