Cyrus Chung Lam's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse Cyrus. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"Cyrus has an aptitude for out of the box thinking and has an understanding of his clients' situation that makes him stand out from the thousands of other attorneys here in California. He pays close attention to what you say during consultation sessions and truly connects with those that he interacts with. In other words, he doesn't just provide legal services to his clients and colleagues, he also makes sure that the experience of retaining legal counsel is a positive one. Cyrus and I met through Phi Alpha Delta and he has helped to guide me in my career in anyway he can. If there is anyone I would recommend to provide a positive experience as legal counsel or as a mentor it would be him."
"I have known Cyrus since we attended law school together and know that he is extremely conscientious and provides strong representation for his clients. Cyrus was always gracious with his time and had tremendous insight into the law that my friends and I always found valuable. I know that as a lawyer Cyrus works hard for his clients, charges fair rates and remains always available to answer inquiries. I strongly recommend Cyrus to anyone who is in need of a good attorney."
"I met Cyrus many years ago and know him to be conscientious, intelligent, articulate, and upstanding~ all the best qualities you would want in an attorney. I would have no hesitation referring clients to him because I know they would be in very capable hands."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. As a trust attorney I understand the importance of legal specialization and know that finding appropriate representation is a difficult task. That is why I am happy to endorse Cyrus Lam for his comprehensive experience in immigration and business law. Often times in my practice I have to represent fiduciaries in complex trust matters involving foreign beneficiaries and international property interests. These complex issues include difficult tax withholding problems and corporate entities and when these issues arise, I always rely on Mr. Lam's legal advice. I also find that Mr. Lam’s expertise along with his humble and conscientious disposition especially beneficial when dealing with high-wealth referrals requesting family-reunification and other immigration services."
"Cyrus is a bright and compassionate lawyer. I have known Cyrus professionally for more than a year, and his clear commitment to advocacy for his clients, his compassion and focus on his clients' best interests, and his civility to his colleagues and opposing counsel are what make him a distinctive lawyer."
