Finally off Probation

Sentenced to 6 years deferred probation a few years back. The whole time all I could think about was early terminating. After being quoted all types of ridiculous ​prices by other lawyers I got hopeless for a while. I had to remind myself that all I needed was a motion submitted , It​ wasn't like thi...s was a whole new case. So I gave it another try and searched around and that's when I ran across David. Can you say "BLESSING" !!! Not only was his price VERY reasonable but he was ready to get started the next day. Not to mention that my case was in a different county from where I live. He even offered to submit the motion again in a few months for FREE if the court denied it. How cool right? Here's the twist... 4 days before my court hearing to determine if I would remain on probation or be terminated from it; they wanted me to give a urine sample. I guess you could say I celebrated a little early with the thought of being felony free again. I went in and attempted to manipulate my drug test by bringing in different urine and getting busted with it by the head probation supervisor! (THIS MEANS AN AUTOMATIC PROBATION VIOLATION WITH A WARRANT TO ARREST YOU)...I know, I know I'm an idiot. I called David and after him calming me down he assured me he would work it out the best he could and to just let him handle it. 4 days later he called me while at court and told me my case was over and I was successfully terminated from probation. Still can't believe it.. sentenced to 6yrs and completed in 4. This guy is definitely worth it. Highly recommended​. Thanks David

Crazy ex gf

I was facing an assault charge (felony) and my mom found David on the avvo site and gave him a call after I had talked to a few other attorneys wanting way more than what David quoted me I talked to David on the phone and I could tell right away he was a guy I could trust. I went to meet him and felt... really good about hiring him David was very upfront about the entire situation telling me he couldn't promise me anything other than that I would not go back to jail but that he would represent me to the best of his abilities. I appreciated his honesty and not making unrealistic promises. He was always very upfront and respectful i was in a bad situation with a crazy ex girlfriend and I told him all about it. I am very unfamiliar with the court system as I have not been in this type of trouble before and I just wanted to get past it and get it out of my life. Multiple times we went to court they offered me deals of probation and David advised me not to take it. We went to court for about 8 months and David got it completely dismissed! He never once treated me like a criminal and I really just felt good about the entire thing after talking to him I had faith in him and I'm glad I did this guy is the best if I ever had to recommend someone to help in a bad situation no one else would compare to David's level of service this man is the best! I was so happy when it got dismissed yesterday I couldn't even form the words to thank him the way I wanted to it was such a great feeling it was overwhelming. Thank you so much David Yoon-Lee!

This lawyer will get your case dismissed!

I was charged with a DUI. The video evidence was not good against me. But, David was on top of it. I didn't have to do a thing. He is a man of his word! He tells you everything you need to know. If he tells you the case is going good, even though it doesn't look like it to you, (which was my case) he...s telling you the truth. There's no bullshit! I thought for a month that I was going to have to live with probation, or some fines, or something. David not only got everything handled, HE GOT MY CASE dismissed!!!!! I cant thank you enough David!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

He's AWESOME!!

I had a theft case. It was very hard for me to find a affordable lawyer. I had a court appointed lawyer before probation that was VERY lazy so I wanted to make sure I could get someone affordable but also good. I had to get a lawyer for early termination and to file my non-disclosure. I must've calle...d 20 attorneys before I got to David, something in my gut told me to go with this man and I am beyonddddd thankful that I did. Besides him being super affordable he is PUNCTUAL!!! The first day I met with this he was on it right after our initial meeting! Coming from a previous attorney that I had to chase down week after week I was just amazed at how fast he was and how he kept me updated daily. He's just awesome really. I am probably one of the most skeptical people ever but I trust this man, he is legit, he is fast, and he knows what he is doing. If I ever run into trouble again (lol I won't) he is my attorney, hands down. HIRE HIM! I wish I would've had David at the beginning of my case, there probably wouldn't even had been a case, that's how good he is. But he did what my other attorney couldn't and he was worth the money I paid. This is your life, get a great attorney people...David is the man! He's my Olivia Pope =)

Excellent service and worry free experience

I am a soon to be UH graduate currently applying to dental school. Due to a misdemeanor case from years ago I was worried that it may cause issues for my dental school application. I was referred to attorney Lee by a friend to help me seal my case. The experience was nothing short of awesome. Attorne...y Lee is a very friendly person and extremely knowledgeable dealing with my case. Every step of the process was explained to me clearly and got the job done in the shortest amount of time. People go through unfortunate events in life, it is great to know that Mr. Lee is there to stand behind you and help clear the roadblocks to a better future. If you ever in need of the service of an attorney you don't need to look any further! A++++++++++
