Represented for Speeding Tickets

I talked to many Lawyers for my Son's Speeding ticket to represent him in Court. Then I decided to go with JK firm. Since John was really good with communications and was willing to sit down before even I decided to hire the firm. We had a court date on 01/30 and both Citations were dismissed by payi...ng a fine of $195 at the court. We did NOT even have to wait for the Judge to decide the case. John K. took care of both tickets by talking Solicitor at Johns Creek Municipal Court. I hope we do not have to go to court. But I will hire JK firm anytime in the future if needed.

Very Satisfied Client

John Kim is a very professional and competent lawyer. He responds in a timely manner and gave the best legal advice for my situation. I was in a tight situation at work and the owner threatened to throw us in jail. Even though I was ready to accept the punishments, I wanted to make sure I would be pu...nished fairly. That is when I contacted John to help me with legal advice. He expertly explained my situation and all the possible outcomes. Even with an already busy case load, he made sure to have time for me and was always upfront. His knowledge of criminal law and intricate strategy is what gave me peace of mind at night. I strongly recommend John Kim to anyone in need of a criminal defense lawyer.

Car Accident (Hit & Run)

Recently, I had a hit & run accident in which a car suddenly cut in from the next lane crashed into the side of my car and ran away. John Kim led me everything I needed, from injury treatment, repairing damaged cars. And most importantly he closed my case with a favorable result through good negotiat...ion with the insurance company. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Attorney John Kim once again for his skillful negotiation with the insurance company based on his many case experiences while working as a district attorney and in a large insurance company.

Well above and beyond

First I wanted to express my gratitude to Mr. John Kim for helping recently. We hired John for aggravated assault charge. We were never involved in any other legal actions before, and was completely lost. After having consultation with John, we knew that he would be the best lawyer to represent us. H...e gave his insights on possible outcomes, and showed us different tactics to approach each individual situations. He really cared for us not only as a client, but as a person as well. John was always available when we had any questions and he would always give his best advice to us. As a result, John was able to dismiss our case and we couldn't be happier about the outcome. I highly recommend John to anyone seeking legal advise.

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.
