Posted by Rui | September 19, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

The best lawyer I have ever met

Mr Hong helped me with my traffic tickets. All of the tickets are really serious. To be honest, I even got a warrant from the court and had been taken to the police department. This is not a small case to be caught into the police department. Mr Hong heard about my story, and he is really willing to ...help me. When we were solving my case together, I found that he was really professional and experienced. He told me to relax and he can handle this case and also told me about some other more seriously cases to make me relax. He is a very kind person, we also talked about the interested stories in our daily life. We solved the complicated case successfully in a pleasant environment. Mr. Hong is not only my lawyer, but also my friend. I highly recommend him and you will never be regretful to do so.

An amazing lawyer

I involved in two car accidents in the last two months and totally freaked out when the first accident happened. Not only because that was the first time in my life but also because I drove alone with a learning permit. Several friends referred me to the same attorney, Dr. Hong, so I went to him with...out hesitation. Dr. Hong is extremely professional, knowledgable and patient. We met a few times before the court date and he explained everything to me: the procedure, how the traffic law works etc. The first case went smoothly and the 2 points were directly dismissed, which was unbelievable. He was also very considerate to his clients. On the second court, he requested a civil reservation to protect me but was not granted immediately because the witness was absent. So he rearranged another court date instead of just waive my right and proceed. After these two cases, Dr. Hong has become a truly helpful friend as well as a respected mentor to me. I wish no one would break the law and everyone drive safely, however, if it happens, I would highly recommend Dr. Hong without hesitation.

A Superior Traffic Violation Defense Lawyer

I was caught on GSP and was given 5 tickets (three moving violations with total 9 point including 99 over 65, and two non-moving violations). I was referred to use Mr. Hong by several friends. Apparently, I made the right choice. He knows the nature of traffic law and the court procedure. I shall s...ay he knows everything! He forced prosecutor for discovery. Then, he went to court 4 times and filed a motion. As the result, all my three moving violations were directly dismissed including the speeding charge. All 9 points are gone! Oh, my! I am so happy for this result! When I walked out of the court, another person appearing the same court told me that I really got a superior lawyer.

Recommend without reservation

I have been working with more than 50+ real estate attorneys in my career and Liwu Hong is the best. Both I and my clients were very glad that we found him as he has made the whole process a breeze. His domain knowledge on real estate is top-notch; his honesty and professionalism made my clients com...pletely trust the decisions he helped made. He is very responsive and responsible. It seems he is always working for my clients, even we know he has many other clients to work with at the same time. He did countless awesome jobs for my clients when they were searching for dream houses across the whole garden state. As a realtor, I am more than 100% satisfied with him. A reliable, warmhearted and patient real estate attorney! I recommend him without reservation!

Attorney Hong Provided Outstanding Counsel Service to Protect Client Interest

I was a defendant in a harsh contest Divorce case. When I faced those legal problem, I was so much fear and hopeless. I even developed major depressive disorder. I thought I would lose everything in this case and even thought of giving up. Attorney Hong is a friend of mine for 10 years. But I haven’...t bothered him in any legal service since my life was beautiful and smooth before until I ran into trouble with my wife (ex-wife). Attorney Hong kept me calm and explained to me the worst case scenario in my situation. He always tells the truth and wants me to face the reality and try to calm down my fear and worry. Attorney Hong helped me to file the Answer and Counter Claim. After I filed the Counter Claim, I was still very nervures and fear. But during the case development with patient and calm, there was a glimmer of hope. The other party changed her attorney and passed over a message for amicable settlement. Attorney Hong’s outstanding negotiation and communication helped to break the ice of the dead case. He established a communication channel between me and the other party. Then during the offer setting and bargaining, he tried to make the other party to face the real expectation and moved forward the case in a win-win situation. Then finally I and my wife (ex-wife) reached a Property Settlement Agreement. The case turned to uncontested hearing and we got the case close very sooner. Overall, Hong and I built up a trust and we worked together to solve the problem. Hong’s service was in top quality and saved me tremendous time and money.
