My experience with this Attorney was a very great one. He is amazing! I got involved in a case before the Board of Dental Examiners and he was the one who prepared me for the hearing. What I really like about him is that he makes himself accessible to his clients. He will always be there to assist pe...ople who are in need. I cannot imagine what would have happen if he was not the one who handled my case! Thank you Mr. Yong. You are a star!!!

Thoughtful, Professional, Excellent

The best thing about this Attorney is that is he straightforward. He will not sugarcoat anything just to make the client feel good. He is so good in handling cases before the Board of Dental Examiners. Well, there were many instances in the past where I talked to other attorneys but Yong was the best... among all of them. He is not arrogant. I can really say that he is truly knowledgeable in all the applicable laws. Most importantly, the fees of Yong are reasonable. As I begin to practice my dentistry, I did not have enough money to spend on legal fees. Luckily, I found the right Attorney who is not only skilled in defending a dental license but is also affordable. I am forever grateful for your services. Giving you a 5-star rating is not enough. Thank you for everything!

First Rate Administrative Law Attorney

Mr. Yong has a special way of knowing how to approach a particular case before the TSBDE (the Board of Dental Examiners). He knows how certain personalities on the Board can affect a case. He was very impressive when he handled the case. At the same time, his assistant was also very friendly and acco...mmodating. I felt welcome! Thank you so much Mr. Yong for the support and assistance. I can say that you did a very great job! Thank you! Thank you! I will recommend you to all my friends who may need a legal representation in the future.

Excellent Attorney

Did you know that it was Mr. Yong who recommended to me that I could go through an expungement process to eliminate my criminal record? My case was quite difficult because I needed to get my dental license but somehow, my criminal record was a hindrance. I tried calling several Attorneys but none of ...them were helpful. What made me happy was when Mr. Yong came to my aid. He is the best! He changed my life for the better. He is good at what he does. THANK YOU! I WILL FOREVER BE THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING!!!

He understood my case.

It was difficult on my part when I received a notice that the TSBDE (Board of Dental Examiners) is going to investigate my case. I needed an attorney back then so I hired Yong. As it turns out, I made the right decision because he was so professional and amazing. He worked hard to ensure that I would... be able to uphold the validity of my dental license. I can really say that he is dedicated in what he does. Mr. Yong is someone I would love to recommend to everyone! Earlier today, I received a notice from the Board of Dental Examiners informing me that the case filed against me was dismissed. Thank you!

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.
