Hung-Lin Lai
Jimmy comes from a diverse, multicultural background and received his multilingual K-12 education in Taiwan, the United States of America, Japan, Germany, and England. While pursuing his undergraduate degree in marketing at the University of Central Oklahoma, he received the prestigious Top Central Man for outstanding leadership and accomplishments, awarded to only 1 student each year. He received his JD/MBA from the University of Oklahoma in 2021.
Having been involved with international students throughout his academic years and being one himself, he developed a deep passion for learning immigration law to help others worldwide realize their dreams of coming to live and work in America. As a result, he resisted the idea of following the conventional employment route for graduate attorneys, which is to join an established law firm as a junior attorney.
Instead, Jimmy founded Lai & Turner Law Firm when his great friend and fellow law student, Braden Turner, echoed his vision to go directly into practice. Jimmy’s vision was to establish a practice to “do law differently” and to inspire the next generation of immigrants to follow their dreams, “The American Dream,” of “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.”
Established in 2022, Lai & Turner has quickly grown to offer additional legal services based on client demand. In rapid succession, Lai & Turner added Estate Planning, Criminal Defense, Real Estate Law, Personal Injury, and more.
As managing attorney of the firm, Jimmy’s job is to ensure that every client receives the best representation possible and that our staff and associates adhere to the firm’s core values and principles when providing legal services. Jimmy’s long-term vision is for Lai & Turner Law Firm to earn a reputation in the community as the premier “go-to” attorney firm for all people who require legal services.

- Q. I've been paying child support for a child that's not mine. Is there anyway I get this to stop? I NEED HELP!!
- A: Has a paternity test been conducted to determine that the child is not yours? File a motion with the court to modify child support. Without knowing more facts the best advice is to seek a family law attorney near you or search for legal clinics.
