Attorney profile

Jake S. Kim, Esq.

Experienced courtroom advocacy. Direct attorney attention. Modern, disciplined legal practice.

I am a New York and New Jersey attorney focused on divorce, custody, equitable distribution, and related family law matters.

Before entering private practice, I served as an Assistant District Attorney in Orange County, New York, where I managed a high-volume docket involving hundreds of criminal matters. That experience taught me to identify the central issues in complex cases, assess risk realistically, and prepare each matter with the courtroom in mind. Across my work as a prosecutor and private attorney, I have personally conducted more than 100 bench trials and hearings, as well as eight jury trials, including a Class A felony jury trial in which I served as defense counsel. I now represent clients in divorce, custody, equitable distribution, and related proceedings throughout New York and New Jersey.

My practice is built on careful preparation, direct communication, and practical problem-solving. I personally oversee case strategy, written submissions, court appearances, and the major decisions affecting each client’s matter. I work to reduce unnecessary conflict where possible while remaining fully prepared to litigate when a client’s interests require it. My multicultural background and experience communicating across language and cultural barriers help me guide clients through difficult legal proceedings with clarity and respect.

I also founded June Guided Solutions, LLC, through which I develop attorney-supervised legal technology for structured intake, document preparation, internal organization, and quality control. I have standardized my professional technology environment on Microsoft and OpenAI business services, supported by security and privacy controls appropriate to professional legal work.

Technology supports my process, but the judgment, verification, and final accountability are mine.

Every filing submitted by my office is personally reviewed and approved by me. My goal is straightforward: to provide clear advice, disciplined advocacy, and direct accountability at every stage of a matter.
