"Jason and I have known each other for more than ten years. We attended law school together and represented clients in the Bronx County, New York Criminal Court in law school. After law school, Jason and I were roommates and worked across the aisle from each other at State Attorney and Public Defender. Based upon the foregoing, I can say that Jason is extremely dedicated to his criminal defense practice and representing his clients to get the best results for the client and their families.

He is a fighter and always works hard for his clients. I always recommend him and his law partner Phil Kim to friends in need of a criminal defense attorney, and would recommend their firm to anybody."
