Professional, empathetic, compassionate

Professional, empathetic, compassionate I initially found Alicia through a mutual friend, she gave me 30 minutes free consultation, and within those 30 minutes I knew that she’s the one who will take care of this case. Communicating with her, and understanding who she is and how she goes above ...and beyond to help her clients is refreshing. She is like the gem of the attorneys, it’s impossible to find another one like her and the Los Angeles area. I am so excited and looking forward to continue working with her. I know she has my best interest at heart, and she has intelligence way to find solutions. I highly recommend alicia to anyone who is looking for an attorney, who is not only professional, but he’s also human. Thank you so much For everything you’re doing for us.

Excellent, thorough, passionate and compassionate lawyer

I highly recommend Alicia Khoo. As someone who has not had a good experience with lawyers in the past I can tell you that Alicia is a class outside of the mould. As well as being extremely intelligent, knowledgeable, professional and thorough, Alicia truly cares about her clients and gives 100% of he...rself. Her experience and expertise are apparent, as I know from my own experience with her through an extremely complex situation which she navigated carefully and successfully. She listens and is patient and kind and most importantly non-judgmental. She is a rare find and you'll be blessed to have her as your lawyer.

Thank you for your review, dear client. I am honored and grateful that I was given the opportunity to serve you and your family's multiple legal needs. As you know, I specialize in complex cases with overlapping timelines involving multiple people, incidents, and countries. Your case was truly complex and needed a lot of strategic finesse. I am glad my skills were able to solve your problems and set your mind at ease.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
