Did a great job coaching me through the process.....and got me a good settlement.

Attorney Hwang, in my opinion, did a great job coaching me through "the process". Sure, I was furious, and ready to sue my former partner (probably at great expense) but Sung-Ho showed me reality (at least for my case) and helped apply enough pressure to capture what was a good settlement. There's ...always risk in doing business but it was refreshing to see the process actually work. Specifically, Attorney Hwang help me recover funds that were invested in a (former) friends company via a convertible note. Later on, after the business failed, rather than providing assets/IP to the lien holders, as the owner should have, he sold himself all of the company IP, subsequently exchanging it for a large position in yet another company. The owner told me the IP had no value but yet he exchanged it for nearly 30% of another company? Anyway, a morally and ethically corrupt former friend got what he deserved and I got a reasonable settlement. I learned a hard lesson. Good coaching, reasonable fee, and I got closure and a good settlement.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
