From the first contest of facts —the defense counsel's first briefsets the direction of the case.
This is the criminal defense site of Glaw Law Group. 'Glaw' layers the Korean word for writing (geul) over Law — and echoes the Korean adverb meaning 'by this very thing.' We do not advertise promises; we argue on the record. One written opinion at the investigation stage, one line in a trial brief — we believe that is what changes outcomes.

PRINCIPLES
How Glaw Works
01
Honesty before outcomes
At the first consultation we state the strengths and the limits of your case as they are. Promised outcomes do not exist in this office.
02
The investigation stage decides
Small choices during the investigation shape the trial. Pre-interview preparation, attendance, and record review are standard procedure on every matter.
03
Your attorney, start to finish
The attorney who takes your case conducts the visits, the briefs, and the hearings. We take fewer cases and go deeper.
PRACTICE AREAS
Every branch of criminal defense
We divide criminal practice into its branches — and treat statutes, sentencing, and procedure in depth for each.
