Eugene Kim, Esq.
Eugene Kim is a corporate attorney and partner at Nano Law, having served as counsel to various public and private companies for more than 15 years. Prior to forming Nano Law, he practiced at Quinn Emanuel, representing Samsung and Mattel in one of the largest intellectual property and trade secret disputes.
In 2015, Eugene formed Nano Law with the goal of helping venture-backed startups navigate the unique legal challenges that a startup company faces, without incurring the large fees that startups often face working with large law firms. His big-picture perspective gives him the ability to confidently guide early-stage founders and companies through complicated legal transactions, while providing context for the legal process, through his open and empathetic style of lawyering and mentorship of his clients.
Eugene’s primary emphasis is overseeing his startup clientele’s day-to-day corporate matters and transactions, guiding his clients in complex debt and equity venture capital financing transactions, and successfully managing acquisitions and exits. In his role as outside general counsel to various private companies, Eugene also utilizes his corporate, commercial, and intellectual property litigation background to support Nano Law’s startup clients on a wide range of commercial transactions, problem-solving murky equity and ownership disputes, and thinking through complicated scenarios for technology forward clientele operating ahead of current regulations and statutes.
