Kim Law Firm

I went to Mr. Kim for help about two years ago and he immediately agreed to assist me with my credit report and creditors. He went to work and his legal assistant is amazing and very responsive. They showed that they cared and even when things got a little cloudy together we were able to overcome and... I rewarded for all my issues and my credit score is now 741 thanks to Mr. Kim and his Paralegal Anna. I will be forever grateful for all your help and will 100% recommend you to anyone with any credit or creditor problems.

Legal Representation by Kim Law Firm

I found the Kim Law Firm online from a solicitation for legal representation on a case. Mr. Kim used his expertise to settle my case against a much larger entity. “I highly recommend The Kim Law Firm to anybody looking for an FCRA attorney as they provide great services.”

Excellent Law Firm

The Kim Law Firm provided great services and I recommend them to anybody looking for an FCRA attorney. I am extremely satisfied with my experience with the Kim Law firm. He was very sympathetic to my concerns and understood my frustrations. He was confident he could help me from the very beginning an...d in the end he did just that and more. Anna, his paralegal is also wonderful. My experience could not have been better. I sincerely thank you all for advocating on my behalf and seeing me when other entities did not.

He is consistent and transparent

The case I came to Richard for had a bittersweet ending and he stayed consistent for a year handling my case and got me a judgment against the defendant I sued. He is one of the best lawyers that you can hire.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
