One of the best!

I have worked with Mr. Kim for many years. Very intelligent and highly skilled attorney.

Posted by Jim | February 16, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Paul Kim proved to be the deciding factor!

Our company initially contacted Paul Kim for a consultation when it became apparent that we’d be facing a possible unlawful termination lawsuit from a former employee. After interviewing several potential attorneys, we decided to retain Mr. Kim to represent us in this matter. Initially, Mr. Kim’s leg...al guidance was utilized in assisting our company to successfully defend ourselves in an involved CA EDD case before an administrative judge. Mr. Kim’s advice and legal strategy were critical in our success against this former employee in the outcome in both the EDD hearing and a subsequent lawsuit that would soon follow. Mr. Kim’s expertise in this area of law proved to be an overwhelmingly critical component to the outcome in of these issues. Several key attributes contributed to our successful working relationship with Mr. Kim. Questions and messages were promptly addressed and answered and, on many occasions, Mr. Kim would proactively reach out to make certain that we had adequate understanding of the complex legal issues facing us. Strategy sessions ultimately led to a concise legal position, allowing us to ultimately decide the path of our case to our satisfaction. Extremely easy to work with, our praise and appreciation for Mr. Kim’s services cannot be overstated.
