This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Amazing

Edward Yim took excellent care my case. He got the job done and it didn't take long. He takes the time to listen to everything you have to say. I truly recommend hiring Edward Yim.

Posted by Paul | October 28, 2013

Would "HIRE" tomorrow.

Mr. E. C. Yim guided my every move, answered and addressed all of my litigation questions. Directed, orchestrated and projected expected outcome. Assured me all issues involved in the case would be handled, medical, financial losses, court procedures, appeals, and professionally responded to "all" of... my concerns, during the process.

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.
