I had the privilege of working with James on a complex merger that required a nuanced understanding of tax law across multiple jurisdictions. Not only is James a master of his craft, but his ability to navigate the intricacies of international tax law made a significant difference in the outcome of our deal. His approach is meticulous and strategic, ensuring that no detail is overlooked. James's expertise was particularly evident in how he managed the Royal Bank of Canada's preferred shares offering, showcasing his ability to handle high-pressure situations with ease.

Beyond his professional achievements, James's commitment to the community is commendable. Serving on the board of the Korean Legal Clinic, he dedicates his time and expertise to those in need, demonstrating his profound sense of responsibility towards the community. His role in the Korean Canadian Lawyers Association further underscores his commitment to giving back and fostering a sense of unity among his peers.

James's ability to communicate fluently in English and Korean has been invaluable, breaking down barriers and ensuring clear, concise communication throughout our interactions. His affiliations with the Canadian Bar Association and the Canadian Tax Foundation speak volumes about his dedication and standing in the legal community.

Choosing James as our legal advisor was the best decision we could have made. His blend of expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for his clients' interests sets him apart. For anyone looking for not just a lawyer but a true ally in navigating the complexities of tax law, James is your go-to professional.
