professional excellence

Peter personally answered questions. It was more like when doctors made house calls kind of vibe. very attentive yet laid back. Always took time to personally answer any questions along the way.

Bankruptcy Attorney

Quality. Concise. Affordable. & Professional. When one of my loved ones was undergoing significant financial stress, Min Gyu Kim provided professional, compassionate legal aid. Not only is the man fluent in Korean (although he does prefer English), but Mr. Kim has done me a great service by red...ucing the amount of paperwork we had to complete without even having to visit his office in-person. All we had to do was speak on a few occasions, sign a sheet here and there, and go on with our daily lives. Without Mr. Kim's legal aid, it is HIGHLY doubtful that the bankruptcy case would have gone as smoothly. I endorse Min Gyu Kim's services for English and Korean speakers alike, as well as any other clientele in need for bankruptcy and financial distress.

Kim is the best Lawyer

Kim is wonderful, very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and very kind. He understood our case easily when we shared it with him on our first visit. He gave us professional advices what to do to start the process with all best information We followed his professional advises orderly. Our case... was successfully filled by Kim, processed and finally discharged. Big new bright hope and new fresh start to our life. Thank you very much Kim. We highly recommend Kim to all who is seeking help with Chapter 7 case. Again, we highly recommend Kim.

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.
