Bio:
Kevin Liu earned his undergraduate degree from the University of California, San Diego in Political Science with a concentration in Public Law. Kevin graduated in three years, and took part in various student organizations and activities including and the Taiwanese American Student Association (TASA). He was also an active member with the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA).
After working as a legal support staff at a private law office, Kevin resumed his education and attended the University of California, Hastings College of the Law. At Hastings, Kevin served as a Staff Editor on the Hastings Business Law Journal and took on an active leadership role in the Asian Pacific American Law Student Association (APALSA).
Kevin became licensed to practice law in California and entered into private practice in 2011 at a law office where his focus was on general litigation and bankruptcy. In late 2012, Kevin joined the law firm Chadwick, Hwu & Huang, LLP. as an of-counsel. Here, Kevin handled all of the firm's bankruptcy matters and worked closely with the firm's business clients. The firm became CHH LAW, P.C. in early 2014, and Kevin now focuses his legal practice on bankruptcy, business law, and family law.
In his spare time, Kevin enjoys the occasional hike around the local mountain ranges in Los Angeles County, and he plays basketball about four times a week. He also volunteers on bankruptcy matters regularly with Public Counsel, which is the nation's largest pro bono law firm.
