Daniel Kim was great. I am a college student and was about to receive my second reckless driving ticket. He was dedicated to my cause and knew it would look bad on my behalf with future employers. He worked hard to help me out. My case was reduced to speeding and I am grateful for Mr. Kim. I would definitely recommend.
I was going to start this review off with a bit of a background story, but if you’re looking for the punch line it’s that Kim is an amazing lawyer and an honest man. As a recent college graduate with fairly limited economic means I was lucky to have him as representation. If you actually get a chance to learn how he got into the business of law you’ll quickly piece together that he does not have to do this for a living… In fact his previous profession could have allowed him to retire quite comfortably a long time ago. After learning that it became very obvious to me that Kim was not practicing law for the money, he was in it for the sake of the game itself (he enjoys the problem solving the work presents him). If you could ask me what I would want in a lawyer, employee, advisor, etc. it would be that quality for obvious reasons. But, anyway on to the story.
Not too long ago I got into a bit of a legal adventure involving a multi car pile-up that ultimately resulted in a ticket citation of “following too closely.” I had recently downloaded an app called “Off The Record” to deal with a speeding ticket I got a few months prior and decided to use it again for this incident. Kim was the lawyer paired to me and quickly made contact. He explained that this was a bit of an interesting incident because the ticket technically involved an accident, but said he would take the case anyway. The case became more interesting when the women that I rear ended decided she was going to claim injury. This was horrifying to me as I was brand new to being an adult and had never had to deal with any sort of real legal situation. Kim seemed to know I was very lost with just about everything going on and skillfully navigated me through the legal waters I was faced with. He handled everything and explained the evolving situation extremely well to the anxiety ridden 20 something that was me. Ultimately he was able to get the entire case dismissed. No ticket, no fine, no points, nothing. That news was one of the biggest sighs of relief I think I’ve ever felt in my life.
I’ll finish by saying that I can honestly tell you if I ever have any legal needs again I’ll be coming back to Kim. He’s an extremely smart, humble, and caring guy with an amazing work ethic (he actually called me at almost 10PM once while reviewing my case).

Excellent Advise
I consulted with Mr. Kim on two different occasions. One instance involved legal clarification concerning damage caused by a fallen tree. The second incident involved a dispute over property damage caused caused by the electrical company.
In both situations, I felt Mr. Kim provided me with clear and thoughtful legal advise on how to effectively resolve both cases. I don't believe I would have had such a satisfactory end to both instances without Mr. Kim's help!
