A kind and Honest Professional.
It has been a few years since my case was resolved. Kelvin was helpful the entire way. What I especially appreciated is that he did not sugarcoat the likelihoods.

Regardless of the issue Mr. Lee is the best lawyer for it!
It was very helpful discussing my concern with Mr. Lee. He went out of his way to take care of the issue and provided me with the best solution in a very short time. He demonstrated that there is no job too small or too big for him to handle. I highly recommend this lawyer.
Kelvin Kwok Lee's Lawyer Endorsements
"Kelvin's experience and dedication makes him a sought after attorney. Excellent writing skills"
"Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have consulted with Kelvin several times on various matters, and he has always been extremely helpful. His knowledge of administrative law is extensive, and he has a very kind and calm demeanor that I am confident his clients all appreciate."
"I have known Kelvin Lee for more than 25 years, since our law school days at UCLA School of Law. As a former Administrative Law Judge and former government administrative law attorney, he is extremely knowledgeable in social security and administrative law matters. I have tremendous respect for his sound legal knowledge and ability to communicate that knowledge. He is a true asset to our legal community. It is my pleasure to endorse him."
"Kelvin Lee is widely experienced in California administrative and licensing law. I first noted his exceptional professional skills some years ago when I was serving as a California Administrative Law Judge and he represented the CA Dept of Real Estate in hearings pertaining to appeals of license applications and DRE discipline for professional misconduct. Since that time, I have informally consulted with Mr Lee on a number of CA licensing and administrative law cases and I am always impressed by the depth of his analytic skills and professional knowledge. I know Mr Lee not only as highly skilled, knowledgeable and experienced, but also as ethical, principled and wholly committed to delivering his absolute best for his clients. I would retain Mr Lee for a legal matter pertaining to myself or my family in a heartbeat, and he is on my short-short list of attorneys I confidently recommend to others."
"I endorse this lawyer, Kelvin is a very hard working, highly ethical lawyer."
