Very happy with the outcome

I wanted to thank you guys for your help in court. I know these processes are incredibly routine for you guys (which is actually excellent!), but having had no exposure to any types of legal matter myself, having your help was a huge relief! I really appreciate the work you guys did, and I am very h...appy with the outcome. I'll of course make sure to refer you to others, and will be in touch if I do need assistance again.

Outstanding service is rare

I am not fond of writing reviews but outstanding service is rare so I need to spread the word so that other families would have benefited too. My daughter involved in DUI case. Mr. Yong An provided excellent defense and he’s always there to every investigation and was able to deliver what was needed,... their defense protected my daughter from going to trial.Kudos to you! I still call for legal advice to this day and I will never be disappointed to receive immediate answers.

He's the MAN!

My family doesn't know what to do to help my sister overcome the situation she is in. Gladly, we knew someone who has a friend who is an attorney that fits as to be our Nurse Defense Lawyer and who has the skills and experiences suitable for the work. We hired Mr. Yong An to help my sister and preve...nt her from losing her license. Thank you so so so much!

Wonderful!

Can I just say that Mr. Yong is heaven sent? I am so thankful that I had an opportunity to receive some advice from him. He was helpful in making me understand about my situation back then. Because of him, I was able to make a good decision for my case before the Board of Dental Examiners. I recommen...d him to everyone. He will listen to your concerns even if you have not retained him yet!

best Dental Examiner

The previous year was very challenging for me. There was a case filed against me at the Board of Dental Examiner. However, it was dismissed right away. The problem was with regards the consequences after the hearing and dismissal of this case. Unfortunately, I encountered a problem during the renewal... process. I was so confused if I needed to report or not. I was worried because practicing my dental professions is my lifeline. I do not only consider it as my source of income but as my life. I have invested time and efforts to reach where I am today and it was about to be taken away from me. Luckily, attorney Yong J. An came my way!!! I met Mr. Yong. He guided me on what to do during the entire process. He helped me deal with my problems about the dental license renewal. What I love about him is that he acts fast all the time!

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.
