Overview

Righting Wrongs. Rebuilding Lives.

Managing partner and founder of The Law Offices of Daniel Kim, Mr. Kim exclusively represents people who have been injured due to the negligence of others dealing with motor vehicle accidents. He believes that standing up to large insurance corporations is mandatory to ensure his clients receive full compensation for all their harms and losses.

Daniel Kim and his multi-lingual team have recovered more than $120 million in settlements and verdicts on behalf of his clients.

In his pursuit to provide the highest caliber of uncompromised representation, Daniel Kim has continuously been recognized by his legal peers and the community as one of the top personal injury attorneys through receiving over 20 awards and accolades such as "Top 40 Trial Lawyers Under 40 for California - The National Trial Lawyers (2018)," "Platinum (Highest) Client Champion Award - Martindale Hubbell (2018)," "National Top One Percent" - National Association of Distinguished Counsel (2018)," "Perfect 10.0 ‘Superb' Rating - Avvo" to name a few.

Daniel Kim's journey to becoming Orange County's top car accident attorney started when he was a child. Daniel's family raised him with a passion for helping others. That passion drove Daniel to become a lawyer, and it has never faded.

Daniel's law career has taken him around the world and back. Working in the U.S. Army JAG Corps, Daniel served in Seoul, South Korea, and Baghdad, Iraq. Thanks to his hard work and resiliency, Daniel was recognized as the top enlisted JAG member in the Asia Pacific region.

Back in Orange County, Daniel received his law degree and went to work serving his local community. Eventually his love of law brought him back to South Korea, where he served as an associate at one of the largest international firms in the world.

Daniel founded the Law Offices of Daniel Kim to give the victims of motor vehicle accidents a better choice to defend their rights. Since starting the firm, Daniel has won hundreds of millions for his clients, and continues to play a hands-on role in every case the firm takes on.

I had an excellent experience with the law offices of Daniel Kim from start to finish. The whole team is extremely pleasant to work with. They were so organized during my case and always made sure I was being taken care of. They answered all the questions I had and equipped me with all the information I needed. The car accident was so stressful but having the Law offices of Daniel Kim on my side eased all the anxieties I held. I got the best medical treatment possible and I’m back to feeling healthy again! I have already recommended this place to my aunt and I will continue to recommend Daniel to anyone that was in a similar situation as me.

They helped me with getting the most out of an accident with an uninsured driver and my insurance basically telling me they won’t help me. They were able to make my insurance help me as they should. Really appreciate the work they did. Timing wise it was a bit long but understandable for covid time and they were most likely busy with a lot of other cases.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
