Kevin Kerveng Tung

I had hired Kerveng Tung for a simple non-payment eviction case. The process was supposedly straightforward, so it was sent over to his paralegal Max to work on this. After an entire year, the paperwork submitted was deemed incomplete per the city, so it was thrown out of court. Instead of admitting ...to fault, this office denied and deflected everything, without actually trying to fix the problem. They insisted for a new eviction case and more fees when they failed to file the first case correctly from the get go. We were then forced to get a second opinion within this office. At this point, Max the paralegal refused to touch the case again, even though all the shortcomings were his fault. Neither Max nor Kerveng came forward to try to fix any of this, not to mention time and tens of thousands of dollars wasted at this office. Prior to this, my family had been using Kerveng Tung’s services for more than a decade. Needless to say, I will not be returning for any services at this office and won’t recommend anyone else to do so.

Buyer beware: this legal "counsel" will absolutely push you to continue dead-end litigation. He will thus drain your wallet dry with nothing to show for it. Unfortunately, I had incurred many such losses for a period of 3 years working with him, and have detailed one such experience below: We reta...ined him for a case in 2014. Before him, we had consulted with another attorney whom, in hindsight, we regrettably did not hire because he advised us to respond as necessary but to settle the case. He even laid out the estimated expenses in total. Unlike the previous attorney, Mr. Tung told us with absolute certainty that he believed the opposing party had no grounds of winning. He made us believe that we certainly would win the case as long as we retained him. In addition, he quoted a much lower rate than the other attorney. Naturally, and not knowing any better, we retained him. Despite the seemingly cheaper rate, his total bill ran even higher than the previous attorney's estimate. Furthermore, when the opponent attorney offered a settlement, he simply forwarded it to us without giving any advice. A couple of months later, we received the judge’s summary judgment requiring us to pay an amount three times that of the opponent party’s offer. We were shocked and questioned Mr. Tung's assistant. She commented on one handicap of our case. However, when I then asked Mr. Tung why he never mentioned this crucial point to us at all, he scornfully insisted that the judge made a mistake and advised us to file a motion to reargue to the same judge and appeal. Meanwhile, he never gave us basic advice to take urgent action for getting a surety bond, thus causing us tremendous stress and nearly the loss of our property. Half a year later, our motion to reargue was denied. Meanwhile, we had been consulting with several different attorneys, all of whom advised us to settle the case mainly due to the handicap of our case. As a result of these attorneys' advice, we settled the case, paying at least three to four times than we should have, and in the process incurring a hefty legal bill charged by Mr. Tung. Moreover, throughout the process of replying to the opponent attorney’s discovery and opposition, Mr. Tung never served as a legal advocate. He sat indifferently with little participation, offering no more counsel or assistance than a bystander in the courtroom. I hope that my unnecessary losses, both financially and emotionally, incurred by Mr. Tung, can be justified by writing this review and helping others to avoid the kind of attorney. Mr. Tung is at worst self-serving and at best incompetent. This kind of attorney, whose greed or incompetence will insist on pushing you further into a dead end that he should already know exists, should not be able to call himself a legal advocate. At the end of the day, if you are dealing with him, you are the only loser.
