Jae Cho is the most honest, professional, down to earth lawyer that I have encountered in my 35 years of doing business. He is always pleasant and always tries to make himself available at a time convenient to his client. He makes everyone feel at ease when explaining complicated legal matters and never makes you feel he is in a rush. He is hard working, kind, considerate, knowledgeable and above all, trustworthy. I am so happy that I was referred to Jae and would highly recommend him to anyone. I only have good things to say, nothing but a positive experience.
