Jinoo is the most compassionate professional attorney I have had the honor of working with. His team works likes a well oiled machine.

My wife and I are Calif residence and the death of both of her parents in Oregon left logistical problems with their estate not to mention contention and disagreement among two other siblings who resided in other states. Jinoo as well as his staff not only navigated through these disruptive issues but did it in a professional way and often as an arbiter to resolve the closing of the estate in a timely way to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Easy to speak with, professional and gave great advice. Felt like he was trying to help me and not just make a buck.

My father passed away and he left some very confusing paperwork behind for his estate. Northwest Legal was extremely friendly and helpful. The service I received was excellent. I highly recommend them

I would highly recommend Jinoo and NW Legal. The attention to detail, knowledge, and care to each client is what you want in any transaction but especially with your attorney. Great guy and joy to work with! Thanks!

I'm extremely fortunate that I found Jinoo. I sure hope I never have to go through something like this ever again but if I ever do I will definitely be calling him . I had a very fragile case and he helped me in every way possible. I'm very impressed with his ability to talk to people, it's genuine. He made me feel like he really cared and as uncomfortable as the circumstances were I found comfort in him. He took time that some may not have with my type of case. I live out of town so I had my boyfriend swing in with something very important and Jinoo welcomed him in and got right to it. His secretary even brought me some chocolates when we were having a tough discussion. Little things like that mean a lot to me. I trust that he really did do all he could to make sure my rights where recognize. There was a lot that I didn't want to hear and still have a hard time swallowing but he brakes it to you softly with explanation. I understand that a lot is out of his hands considering certain aspects of a case. It took a while to get it all settled. longer than I expected it would, but he kept me posted every step of the way and reassured me that things are moving forward. The end result was as good as it could be. I can confidently say he made it a much softer landing, I can now move forward with some closure. Thank you Jinoo!

I have had dealings with multiple lawyers in many different specialties and Jinoo is definitely one of my favorite. He has the highest of ethical standards, listens attentively and gives decisive educated answers to questions. I was very comfortable sharing my personal information with him. As I move forward with my estate and business planning, I have complete confidence that he has my best interests at heart. Thank you.

Jinoo assisted us in a successful negotiation with a landlord involving a commercial lease. He was strategic, persuasive, and tenacious. Due to his efforts, we were able to secure a lease with more favorable terms. I highly recommend Jinoo!!

Jinoo and his team are extremely professional, efficient, and communicate well. Above average attention to detail with enough education to me, as the client, to understand my options. Highly recommend.

I have had the privilege to consult with Jinoo on estate planning and will drafting. He was excellent at walking through the steps and explaining complex terms and processes in a way that the average person can understand. I was most impressed by how genuine he is and his obvious care about creating a plan that addresses my unique situation. The takeaway? Jinoo and his team will take the utmost care in making sure you are taken care of.

If i could give this lawyer one-half or a minus 5-star rating I would do it. I don't even have the language to express the feelings of extreme resentment, betrayal, and deep disappointment I have harbored toward this attorney for the unprofessional and inappropriate approach to our family's estate matter at a time when we were emotionally and financially vulnerable. He did not handle the details of our family's estate well, aided in the closure of a business, foreclosure of two properties, he violated professional rules of lawyer conduct, abused our beneficiary funding, failed to communicate important matters, and clearly had no respect or sensitivity to our bereavement. He also spent money he was not entitled to, and the remaining funds were difficult to get back out of the trust. i would not recommend him.

I was immediately impressed with Jinoo Hwang because I felt certain about his integrity, knowledge and trustworthiness. He explained everything to me in language that I could easily understand and he never once showed any indication that I was asking too many questions. He is very honest and fair, and if it is your first time working with a lawyer, I strongly recommend Jinoo. He is committed to his client, and the staff at Northwest Legal are very connected with clear communication and prompt responses. Do not waste your time comparing with other lawyers because Jinoo is excellent and his price is reasonable.

Jinoo is one of the sharpest lawyers I've had the pleasure of working with.

He is honest, friendly, and thoughtful. His suggestions and thought process take the consultative approach.

Jinoo is my goto lawyer for legal advice and referrals (if it is an area of law he doesn't practice) because he is well connected and is willing to make a "handshake" introduction

We were looking for a good local attorney to help us with a couple of legal services (wills, etc.). I left Jinoo a message and he responded, after hours, on the same day. Based on that, we set up a meeting and the rest is history. Jinoo and his staff are professionals through and through. Jinoo is the kind of lawyer you want working for you. Yes, he is extremely well versed in the law. Yes, he is very knowledgeable. Beyond those two key elements (and I cannot emphasize this enough), he makes it personal and that meant a great deal to us. We weren't just a couple of new clients...he spent time getting to know us, understanding what we needed and wanted and helping us define that in a way that could be put to paper. It wasn't a cookie cutter approach and we weren't just two more names in his book. I highly recommend Jinoo and his staff.

As an attorney, Jinoo Hwang is a SUPERLAWYER! In addition to being knowledgeable and meticulous, he has very strong communication skills, a rarity in the legal world. After meeting with Jinoo Hwang at Northwest Legal, I came away with hard answers and much needed closure.

Jinoo counseled me as I navigated my family through some messy interpersonal disharmony. Although I didn’t know it when I first met him, he is obviously a man who is well trained in conflict resolution and negotiation. But beyond those developed skills, he had a unbelievably good ear and empathetic heart. He immediately understood what stresses were involved in the conflict and set up a plan to work toward an amicable resolution. His guidance was invaluable.

Last year I was given a referral to the offices of Northwest Legal and Jinoo Hwang. I can't tell you how fortunate I felt to have Northwest Legal services and resources at a difficult time in my life. Jinoo is very knowledgeable and helped me break down the tasks I needed to accomplish. He was available whenever I had questions. Not only was his legal advice on spot, but I felt emotionally supported during a challenging time.

We reached out to Mr. Jinoo Hwang for assistance with our small estate claim. Mr Hwang and his staff made the whole process painless. They are knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. I highly recommend Mr. Hwang and his team if you ever need any legal services.

Northwest Legal provided excellent assistance and advice for us to navigate our family estate. The firm is friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced in estate and trust services. Jinoo is very personable, clear, concise, and informative when discussing the legal requirements and steps necessary. We highly recommend his firm to anyone requiring professional legal services.

**My response to Northwest Legal part 1 and 2**-

2. It appears you have your records messed up. You're the only firm I contacted and under your law firm's phone number in my phone I called Feburary 20th for the first time and the phone call lasted 4m9s and I specifically told the man on the phone I had until April 20th to complete my case. **Stop trying to blame me for your mistakes. I have pictures of the calls to your number on the dates I have provided, I would be more than happy to email them to you if you'd send me an email so I know where to send them.**

In my opinion, an apology would be much more professional because now, not only have you appeared to have lied to try and make yourself look better, it is showing how unorganized you guys can be.

1. My first call to you was February 20th at 11:43am the phone call lasted 4min9s, my second was March 4th 1:43pm and 1:45pm my third was March 8th at 4:11pm. I searched my email records, nothing. I have pictures, -I- don't lie.**

I called seeking legal assistance, was told they would talk it over and call back. I waited a week and a half, heard nothing so I called again and asked what was going on, was again told they would call me back. Waited several more days making it over 2 weeks since I first called and still had not heard back from them. I called again and was told they were too busy to take on my case after making me wait for over 2 weeks. I told the man on the phone I was very disappointed they made me wait that long for them to tell me that and that my case only required maybe an hour's worth of work and that it is time sensitive, I could have found someone else to help me. He told me that the attorney actually never looked it over and that he would talk to him and call me right back. What?? But okay, ONE more chance. I made him repeat that he'd call me right back and he assured me he would. No call back. I'm glad they didn't call me back at this point, looks like I dodged a bullet.

I highly recommend Jinoo Hwang at this firm for all of your estate planning needs. He's very professional, cares about your wants with your planning, and has a great personality to boot. I could not have been more pleased. I would personally refer anyone I knew who was about to do up their estate planning to go see him.

Jinoo was great to work with when I was starting my business. He listened carefully to all my questions and concerns, took care of all the paperwork, and made helpful recommendations with regards to insurance, banking, and taxes. I would definitely work with Jinoo again and highly recommend him.

Jinoo was very helpful with my situation. I cannot thank him enough and it will not be hard for me to keep him "top of mind" when people mention they need legal assistance. He is very professional and had the ability to make you fell at ease. A lawyer with a personality, sense of humor and still very professional. Who knew that existed?! Thank you!

Jinoo and Northwest Legal provide an outstanding service. My business questions were answered in a straightforward, honest way, with feedback that I could follow up on immediately. I appreciate getting the full picture, and Jinoo is very good at providing legal perspective in clear terms. Thank you so much! I will be back for more assistance with my business in the future.

I wish I would have talked to Jinoo before I needed him. He drafted our business some great liability documents that you don't have to have a law degree to understand. I wish that we never needed these services and that a handshake would do but with the potential dangers of trying to do honest business I couldn't recommend Northwest legal and Jinoo more.

We were referred to NW Legal & Jinoo Hwang by friends and were so grateful that we were! NW Legal & Mr. Hwang were a pleasure to work with being friendly, patient with explaining legal verbage, great at communicating and keeping in contact. As well, they were very professional, affordable and got our project done as quickly as possible. You could tell working with them that they were a firm that cared not just a non emotional group getting a job done!

Jinoo is great and very helpful. He is very professional and patient. He is being honest with my case and gave me a lot of useful information that I need to assess my situation. If anyone in Oregon needs legal advice, I recommend Jinoo Hwang sincerely. For international students who speak Chinese, Jinoo has an assisstant who speaks Chinese. Hence , there is fewer barriers to discuss law issues.

We hired Mr. Hwang to help with a messy estate situation after a family member's passing. He took care of our legal needs, in a very professional and compassionate manner considering our circumstances every step of the way. Jinoo has been more than helpful, we would strongly recommend him for any of your legal needs.
