Very Resourceful With Employment Law

I contacted Mr. Henry Lung on behalf of my son who separated from his previous employer. The previous employer contested my son's NYS Unemployment claim. I contacted Mr. Lung who was one of the attorneys recommended by the Dept. of Labor for employment issues. Mr. Lung was generous with his time a...nd insights in helping my son understand his rights as well as the merits of his case. My son won his case and the added confidence that he gained from Mr. Lung was a key contributor to the successful outcome.

Thank you for posting this review. Sometimes I will come into contact with a person where that person only needs advice & guidance instead of having to hire a lawyer. I am glad to do this & on occasion, I will ask him/her to write a review for me using whatever words & language that the person wants. It is very true that when it comes to lawyers, many of them write their own reviews. I have a woman working at my office who worked for a Long-Island based Divorce lawyer for 2 decades & she told me that this lawyer hired a kid to write some positive reviews for him. The first letter of that lawyer's first name is 'K.'

Posted by Emanuel | December 19, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Landlord & Tenant

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.

Best Lawyer in New York State and more

My case started when the attorney at my employer informed he had just received a request for information for garnishing my wages.I was referred to Henry.There are not enough characters allowed in this box to explain how knowledgeable,professional,dedicated,helpful and genuine Henry is. He ended up ha...ving to file motion after motion as we were dealing with a terrible Law Firm that was hired by the opposite side. This Law Firm submitted false affidavit to the court, failed to give the Judge's order to stop any action against me until the hearing so my bank froze all my bank accounts leaving me with no resource to pay my bills or put food on the table. Henry reacted extremely quickly and worked before and after hours to make sure he did everything in his power to reverse the freeze and stop them from any further fraudulent activities. Without him, I am not sure what situation I would be in today. He gave me my life back and I will be forever grateful to him for going above and beyond in a desperate situation.Henry is everything every lawyer should be.You can count on him to have your best interest in mind and at heart.

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.”
