Simply amazing.

Joseph Yoon is the man, the myth, the legend. He is a true professional and makes everything easy from minute one. I was referred to Yoon by one of my friends who found great success with him before. I got a speeding ticket in Arlington County and got a very favorable result. Everyone knows Yoon is t...he best. During my aggressive driving course, our instructor went around the room and asked who everyones lawyer is. Other students were having issues with their attorneys. I kid not not, when I said "Joseph Yoon," the instructor paused and said, "oh he is famous around here - you're good." If you get a ticket in Northern Virginia, USE JOSEPH YOON. Don't take the risk and try any other attorneys. If you want results, want to mitigate the risk of your case going unfavorably, and want an affordable/professional/efficient attorney, there is no-one else but Yoon. Can't sing his praises enough! Would recommend to all my friends and family members.

I highly recommend Attorney Joseph Yoon!

I was stopped on Route 95 North in Fairfax County, Virginia and was ticketed for driving 77 mph in a 55-mph zone. Since the ticket was for more than 20 miles over the posted speed limit, I was cited for reckless driving. I was worried about having my driving license suspended, negatively impacting my... auto insurance and I read that in Virginia you could go to jail if convicted for reckless driving. I went online and found Attorney Joseph Yoon who was a highly recommended defense attorney. After talking with Attorney Yoon, he put my mind at ease and I hired him to represent me in court and he told me that I did not have to appear in court if I did not want to be there. Attorney Yoon got my violation significantly reduced and called me on the telephone from the courtroom to advised me what had transpired. I was very pleased with the outcome and thanked him for his efforts. Attorney Yoon was not satisfied with the initial outcome because he felt there was more to the story. He kept working for me and called me again an hour later to advise me that he was able to go back to the prosecutor, raise an additional defense regarding the accuracy of the speeding charges against me and have the state drop the charges completely. My driving record is now clear of the speeding and reckless driving charges as if I was never charged to begin with. The incident will not appear on my DMV driving record and it will not impact my auto insurance. I highly recommend that you hire Attorney Joseph Yoon, he knows the law and he works for you to make sure that you get a fair day in court. Always have an attorney when you go to court and ALWAYS have Attorney Joseph Yoon in court representing you! I highly recommend Attorney Joseph Yoon.

Joseph Yoon - Best In Class Attorney for Virginia Reckless Driving Cases

After hiring Joseph Yoon to represent me for my reckless driving charge, there is absolutely no question that he is the Cream of the Crop when it comes to defending these difficult Virginia driving cases. I was charged going 90 mph / 55 mph eastbound on the Dulles Toll Road (35 mph over the speed ...limit). After reading about Virginia driving laws, I was sure that I was doomed given that I was traveling so significantly above the speed limit. Joseph not only put my mind at rest upon initially speaking with him in the initial consultation, but illustrated such a deep understanding of Virginia law that I knew at the onset I was in good hands. Despite my difficult charges, and despite being up against prosecutors who really did not want to budge on my case, Joseph Yoon was able to get the charges against me fully DROPPED - you heard that correctly, not reduced but my charges were completely and fully DROPPED. Getting a reckless driving ticket in Virginia is a scary thing, and hiring Joseph Yoon to represent me was one of the smartest decisions I could have ever made. Simply put, Joseph Yoon is best in class. I will be recommending him to everyone and anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. I think I echo everyone else who has been represented by Joseph when I say that if you want to hire the best, hire Joseph Yoon.

Excellent

Joseph was professional, competent and successful. My wife received a reckless driving ticket and was certain she wasn't going as fast as the officer said. Joseph had it reduced several times over and throughout the entire ordeal kept us informed on how to best handle the court proceedings. I high...ly recommend him!

Joseph Yoon has been my attorney for over 2 years. He is prompt and always available. He understands and takes the time to explain everything. He has represented and defended me in court on a reckless driving charge with which I have been extremely satisfied. He has always come through for me whe...ther it be drafting legal documents or advising me in real estate. I expect him to be my lawyer for years to come.
