top attorney for DUI

I was wrongfully stopped for a DUI. I was humiliated by the whole police process. When I went to consult with different lawyers, they all said that I would have to plead guilty. But not Jina Kim. She completely explained the faults in the case against me. She gave me so much information on how s...he could get all of the charges (DUI, possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest) against me dropped. I was dubious that she could do all of this especially after the other lawyers I talked to would have me plead guilty. I am so glad that I took her advice and retained her services. She even answered my calls, and I called her many times, after regular business hours. Well, we went to court, I still thought that I would have to do at least probation or house arrest. I was amazed when she presented my case and ALL charges were dropped on several technicalities. Thank you Jina. If not for you, I would have lost my job, my girlfriend and my dignity. I have since referred a friend of mine who was arrested for growing pot. His case was also handled by Jina and all charges dropped as well. Jina, you are now on my list of favorite people.
