               I am so thankful that Ruth handled my divorce. She was amazing throughout the whole process; she took time explaining my options on how to proceed, gave me some budget friendly options for filing, and was always quick to reply when I reached out. She frequently checked in on my case as the papers were processing and kept me up to date. I would highly recommend her to any friend in need of a good divorce lawyer. - SA, BK,NY
                   My previous attorney whom I hired to respond to my ex-wife's child support petition was a fantastic gentlemen sadly he passed away suddenly which left me scrambling with an open case. The prospects of finding an attorney who could step right in where my previous lawyer left off was a challenge I thought would not be possible. I found numerous family law attorney's on-line. Ms. Chung was the 6th attorney and after but our initial conversation I found some comfort in knowing she would be best to move my case forward and hired her on the spot. Ms. Chung went to work immediately understanding that our court date was fast approaching, she prepared and kept me in the loop the entire way. She made sure I was on-board with he game plan she put together, I trusted her expertise and the final outcome exceeded all my expectations. Although our case was finalized with a favorable outcome I plan to hire Ms. Chung to address all my future child support needs should they arise and I highly recommend anyone battling unjustifiable child support increases or general family courts issues to hire Ms. Chung, she will go to bat for you and provide the expertise you need in today's highly delicate family court landscape. - M.C., BX, NY
                     After trying to navigate New York's legal system alone for a difficult family situation involving my young child, I met Ruth.  I was exhausted mentally and emotionally and despite my best efforts, in way over my head.  Ruth isn’t a “hired gun” that mindlessly executes. She expertly navigates you through the process as a lawyer and friend. Ruth made sure to understand my concerns, the points that I was willing to compromise on and those that I just couldn’t.  From her experience, she was able to suggest solutions that work in the real world and that I was comfortable with.  She also worked on a long-term solution that could keep working in years to come with the aim to avoid frequent and future visits to court. She also presented alternative ideas and, in my case, technologies that could be utilized to make me more comfortable with my child on visits with her other parent. During the whole ugly and painful process, Ruth conducted herself with the utmost grace.  On multiple occasions, my emotional reactions to stressful situations were met with calm and collected responses and thoughtful and appropriate actions. It was hard for me to let someone else “fix” my circumstances. However, after each difficult situation, I reflected back and saw that Ruth’s decisions and actions were the right ones.
My only regret, is that I didn't find her sooner.  - G.W., NY, NY 
               Ms. Chung is a wonderful advocate and a fighter.

               Ruth Chung represented me with my contested divorce.  She assisted me by resolving my issues of child support, exclusive possession of the martial home, home appraisal, martial debts, and pension distributions.  I was a domestic violence victim and during my initial consultation with Ruth I was still in shock and wasn’t fully cognizant about my feelings or my present predicament that was resulting in divorce. Also, I felt tremendous fear and anxiety about the unknown and the legal ramifications. I recalled walking away from the initial meeting with Ruth feeling hopeful, dignified, and appreciative.  My needs were put first and I was treated with compassion and dignity.  My concerns were valued and my doubts were reassured.  My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained.  She helped me with multiple issues, fast, and in a very cost-effective way. Ruth was open armed when I had any question at any time of the day or night. During a court hearing, I can recall feeling like I just existed and I felt my husband used, humiliated, and diminished the family dynamic.  Ruth defended me from unjust accusations by my husband and her calm and empathetic demeanor contributed to me being emotionally at eased.   During court sessions, Ruth arrived early, fully prepared and she presented my case to the judge manageably and logically. She demonstrated decisiveness and evaluative skills choosing the most suitable strategy on my behalf to reach a favorable negotiation with my husband.  Ruth went above and beyond to ensure a great and favorable outcome. I am forever grateful and I highly recommend her. - W.P., BX, NY

               It’s never a easy journey when it involves lawyers, a lot of legal paperwork and court dates. Ruth not only represented me but understood unspoken words that I couldn’t explain with the emotional state I was in almost 2 years ago. When I would panic at something the opposing counsel always threw at us, she always handled it in such a calm and graceful manner. She knew exactly how to handle a situation without having me to worry what would happen. She’s professional, she knows what she’s doing, she was very adamant on getting what I needed back. I’m glad I found Ruth from the start and she was able to close this divorce case for me. I can’t thank you enough Ruth. - S.K., QNS, NY
               I am a former client of Ms. Chung, where she represented me in a child custody case.  During that time, I found Ms. Chung to be consistently pleasant, tackling all issues with dedication and a smile.  In addition to her demeanor and being a joy to work with, Ms. Chung always demonstrated to be a take-charge person who was able to present creative ideas and effectively articulate her thoughts and opinions regarding my case. As my attorney, she demonstrated leadership, initiative and was very reliable.  It is a genuine pleasure and honor for me to endorse Ms. Chung as legal representation.  I sincerely believe that Ms. Chung would be a tremendous asset to any future client and has my highest recommendation. - M.A., BK, NY
