DuPage County Korean Attorney
Lawyer Assisting Korean Clients With Criminal Defense and Estate Planning in Wheaton
For most people, the prospect of entering a courtroom or addressing legal issues can be highly intimidating. This is even more so for those who speak English as a second language or who have immigrated to the United States. Regardless of your situation, you need a skilled attorney on your side to protect your rights and help you determine your legal options.
At Anderson Attorneys & Advisors, we are dedicated to helping our clients find solutions to their legal issues, and we are prepared to assist with a wide variety of cases. Attorney Jae Kwon is fluent in both English and Korean, and he is active in the Korean community and serves as Advisory Counsel to the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Chicago. With his 15 years of legal experience, he has a record of success helping clients find innovative solutions to their legal needs.
Criminal Defense
As a former Assistant State’s Attorney at the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office, Attorney Kwon prosecuted a wide variety of felony cases. He brings an understanding of the prosecutor’s perspective to matters involving criminal law, which has helped him achieve positive results for clients in a wide variety of criminal defense cases, including:
- Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
- Drug charges
- Weapons charges
- Property crimes
- Domestic violence
- Child abuse and neglect
- Juvenile crimes
- Traffic violations
Jae’s dedication to his clients and ability to think outside the box has led to success in multiple types of criminal cases. For example, in one case involving a young man who was facing serious prison time for felony charges, Jae worked with the prosecutor to explore alternative sentencing options, finding a solution that would allow the defendant to avoid jail and have the charges expunged from his criminal record.
Mr. Kwon has also used his knowledge of asset seizure and forfeiture laws and his experience as a litigator to help clients recover assets seized by law enforcement. In one such situation, he was able to help a client who had almost $200,000 in cash seized by police recover these funds.
Estate Planning and Business Law
Attorney Kwon provides a strong understanding of the estate planning tools and financial planning methods available to families. He assists in creating wills, trusts, and powers of attorney to help family members provide their loved ones with the financial resources they need. In addition, his knowledge of business law can give business owners the assurance that their interests will be protected when forming a business, drafting contracts, or litigating disputes.
Jae has provided numerous clients with compassionate guidance in addressing their needs and concerns. For example, he assisted one family by helping them understand their rights when creating a healthcare power of attorney, and he worked with another family in selling a portion of their family business on a tight time frame.
