Kay

Henry was very professional, honest and answered my questions. I would definitely recommend him for legal help. A divorce is one of the most stressful situations a person can go through. Henry did his best to make the legal part of it go very smoothly.

Amazing Attorney!!

I have recently worked with Mr. Henry Lung, regarding post divorce modifications to my divorce stipulation. Mr. Lung came highly recommended by a family member. Upon meeting him, I immediately knew that I was in good hands. Mr. Lung is warm and welcoming and very patient; more importantly, he is e...xtremely well versed in the area of matrimonial, divorce and family law, as well as in other areas of law. He spent a great deal of time listening to my concerns and working with me to prepare for our court appearance. Mr. Lung represented me in a most professional manner. He defended my position and was successful in having modifications granted to my divorce stipulation. I am finally more financially and emotionally secure in providing for the needs of my young daughters. Throughout my time working with him, Mr. Lung was prompt in responding to my phone calls and emails. He reassured me when I was feeling confused and anxious. If you are searching for an excellent attorney, I highly recommend Mr. Henry Lung!!

A first-rate lawyer is a good listener, generous, and helpful.

Henry has handled several cases for me know. I trust his judgment. He is very generous with his time- whether by phone or email, and I have by now emailed him with numerous questions and issues. He resolved a matter with an irresponsible, greedy NYC landlord that wanted to keep charging rent after we... had moved out. He handled credit and finance related issues affecting my credit report. He also handled several traffic violations successfully, notably when I was unable to go to Court. While I do not go out of my way to create legal issues or problems, I do go out of my way to make sure I contact Henry Lung for his assessment on how best to resolve things, usually without going to Court. If you should need legal help in areas of his specialities, I do not think you will be disappointed; in fact, I think you will be very pleased with the results.

Emanuel is a very nice person & it is true that I have spoken to him on various occasions. He is an example of someone who has had various issues on the smaller side (non-emergencies) that he has needed to speak to a lawyer about & I've always been glad to assist him.

Provided the Most Meaningful Advice

I have posted several questions on Avvo and Henry Lung was the only one to provide more than lip service. His responses were thorough and actionable. I met for a free consultation and he spent 2 hours with me. He also provided sample documents and suggested next steps. I would recommend that anyo...ne in need of advice contact him.

This is also a real review, as in Not written by me but by the person whom I met with. I met with her & her sister about 2 months ago on a Sat. afternoon & we actually met for 2.5 hours about her current, pending litigation where she is pro se. I was very patient with her & answered all of her questions & showed her some examples of how I've handled similar situations in my other civil litigation cases.

Rating:  4.0 (Concern)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2020.

Suspension issued in NY, 2020

updated on 09/08/2021

Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Censured issued in NY, 2013

updated on 02/11/2020

When an attorney is censured it means he or she did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Henry’s comment:

“I was issued a 'public censure' in 2013 for something that happened in 2008-09 when I donated money to a woman who was elderly & sick & always complained about needing money for surgery on her back (she did not have health insurance at the time & I don't know if she is still alive). This was a matter that involved an allegation of my sharing a fee that I had earned with a non-lawyer. This situation did Not involve any allegations of legal malpractice at all.”
