Long Time Client

Mr. Kong is a good lawyer and I am surprised that there are several negative reviews on this site. My experience with Mr. Kong has been great on several tough cases. I am a business man, with assets in real estate and contracts in restaurants. Mr. Kong also helped me and my business with immig...ration filings. Not every lawyer is right for every client, but Mr. Kong is right for me. Mr. Kong charges a premium, but he always gives me a discount as well! Still expensive but worth the advise and help he has given me on the sales and purchases of my real estate investments. I recommend him highly.

Poor and stupid advice

Advised me to plead guilty to a crime that got me deported, when I would have never plead guilty to the crime if I had known this would happen. Then failed to appear in immigration court which meant I had to hire another lawyer from behind bars. Do not use.
