“Just when I thought no one cared and justice would no longer prevail, I found Attorney Arthur Kim. I was at the end of my rope, I had spoken with top attorneys who told me, ‘Well you might have a case but it’s extremely difficult to litigate The System aka The State of California’ so they sent me away feeling helpless and abandoned. I returned home and one of my clients gave me Mr. Kim’s information and said, this is your guy. It took me another few months before I called Mr. Kim because I was exhausted and frankly, I had lost all hope. Long story short, Mr. Kim was able to do what other attorneys claimed could never be done, he took on The System and WON. Mr. Kim believed in me and my clients, he saw a System that was abusing the rights of thousands of health care workers and he came to our rescue. This story is so in-depth and so intriguing that Hollywood should make a movie about it. I can honestly say, you are in GREAT HANDS if Mr. Kim takes your case.” – Leon (Los Angeles, CA)
