William Chung Law Office, PLLC

I hired William Chung to represent me in the purchase of a co-op apartment in Manhattan. Before I signed the contract, he told me there were no assessments. After I signed, I learned at my board interview that seven-figure special assessments were coming. It became clear to me that he had never reviewed the board minutes, where this information was recorded. Reviewing board minutes is one of the most basic parts of a lawyer’s job in a co-op purchase. That’s how buyers learn about assessments, building problems and financial issues before committing. Because this was missed, I’m now responsible for a significant amount of money that I could have negotiated or avoided entirely had I known. Beyond this, he was slow to respond, often impossible to reach, and would go days without replying. When I raised the issue with him afterward, he acted as if he hadn’t known and brushed it off, saying every building always has assessments. If you’re buying a co-op, make sure your attorney actually reads the board minutes and gives you a written summary before you sign anything. His rates are low, but in my experience that saving cost me far more in the long run. I would not recommend him.

After our disaster experience from the existing attorney, I was in desperate need of a highly experience estate attorney to revise my mother's Will & Trust and LLC modification. Based on our phone conversations, we had hired William Chung Law Office to take over the request to execute the updated Will and create a new Revocable Trust and Power of Attorney as well as to fix the mistake of the LLC that was submitted from the existing attorney. William Chung Law office had demonstrated incredible knowledge and exceptional customer support from the beginning throughout the end of this process, in which he was always available to address any questions or concerns on a call or email. We are completely satisfied and grateful for William to have executed my mother's estate and will look to hire his firm for any future purposes. If anyone is seeking for an estate attorney, I would strongly suggest to contact William Chung Law Office to further assist with any of your needs. Eric
