Yoho Law is Closing
Yoho Law is no longer accepting new clients.
I want to start by thanking everyone who expressed an interest in obtaining legal services from my firm. However, after accepting a position with the State, I will no longer be able to provide legal services and will be closing my law practice accordingly.
If you are a current or former client, please feel free to reach out to my office. I will be happy to answer any questions you have regarding your matter, any aspect of representation, or recommendations for subsequent counsel. My phone number and email will remain active so long as this webpage is up, which is likely to extend through 2023.
I appreciate having had the opportunity of representing you; so thank you again for your business over the years. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
