Superb Trust and Estate planning lawyer!

Sally and her team are exceptionally professional and knowledgeable. They provided my family with guidance setting up our family trust and estate planning. It could be complicated but made it clear and easy. I highly recommended her legal services!

Yea L.

We worked with Sally Chung for estate planning and trust set-up. Her prep work and extensive financial and legal background (in particular with Medicaid/Medicare elderly law) enabled us to move forward quickly and efficiently to give our family some peace of mind. An added benefit was that she prov...ided consulting and materials in both Korean and English which was very important to us.

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.
