Steve Kim helped us to mediate a very, very difficult and intractable case with three parties and their counsel involved. He was thoughtful, studious, even-keeled, creative, and willing to push all sides equally towards what really was the right solution. At the end of a tough day we managed to settle this case, entirely thanks to Judge Kim's efforts.

It’s good to see the positives about judges like Judge Kim as well as it is an eye opener to read about the bad judges. Too bad your post won’t be up for long because of the crazy person who continually post outrageous garbage about Ivanka Trump and others. Hey crazy person, nobody is reading or cares about your insane posts.! You are in serious need of professional help you whack job you. Can you please find something better to do (like parachuting without a parachute) and stop ruining this site for the sane people!! You nut you!!’
