We wanted to thank you so very much for representing Cory. We could not be more relieved with the outcome. We are so grateful to you and your staff. We know that you worked hard and there were many obstacles. It was a pleasure meeting you and we will definitely recommend you in the future to anyone who may be in need of you services- hopefully not “us” (bet you hear that often!). We filled out your review on AVVO and hope that brings in more business for you. Although, you seem to be extremely busy already…. Are you sure you want more work? Maybe a nice vacation or early retirement would be a better idea?

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts and God bless you and your family now and always.

Dear Mr. Kim,

Thank you very much for your efforts to obtain justice for our son.  There was no way that we could have compiled enough information on our son to exonerate him.  Without your assistance, he might have been a casualty of the justice system instead of a success.  You are a very compassionate man who is willing to go the extra mile to help your fellow man.  Our son’s story could have had an unhappy ending if not for your tireless dedication.  God bless you.

I have worked in law enforcement for more than 20 years. For 3 years, I was assigned to Court Services Bureau for the largest Sheriff’s Department in the United States. This means I was assigned to various courtrooms as a Bailiff. As a member of a Superior Court staff, I have dealt with many attorneys and law firms. I do not believe you will find a more caring, compassionate, educated, experienced or professional attorney than Mr. Paul Takakjian.
