Hieu Hyunh of Hyunh&Hyunh is a really nice guy (for a lawyer!)....LOLOL I have known him for over 20 years, and he has represented me on about half a dozen matters, corporate and personal. Their office is convenient with free parking, and he is prompt with responses, calls, texts, and emails. We are close to settling a large auto claim (dump truck rear ended me... He got $40,000) that includes auto repair, and personal medical \ physical therapy and steroid injections in back and neck. Atty Hyunh has made this difficult process so much easier to take! jf
