Chris Song, J.D.
Immigration Attorney

About Chris Song

Chris Song is an immigration attorney at H&H Law in Santa Ana, California, practicing alongside founding attorney Austin Kim. He brings an international academic background and a fully bilingual practice to clients across the Korean and broader Orange County community as they navigate the U.S. immigration system.

Education & Background

Chris's education spans two continents. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from Yonsei University in Seoul — one of South Korea's most selective research universities and a name well known throughout the Korean-American community. He continued his studies in the United States, earning a Master of Arts from Biola University in La Mirada, California, before completing his legal education with a Juris Doctor from Trinity Law School in Santa Ana. That path, from Seoul to Southern California, mirrors the journey many of the firm's clients are making themselves, and it shapes how Chris explains the process to them.

Practice Focus

Chris was admitted to the State Bar of California in 2021 and focuses his practice on family-based immigration and naturalization — spousal and fiancé (K-1) petitions, family-preference immigrant visas, adjustment of status, and N-400 citizenship applications. These are the matters that most directly affect how Korean families reunite and put down roots in the United States, and Chris handles them with attention to the documentation and timing that make the difference between a smooth case and a delayed one.

• Spousal and Fiancé (K-1) Petitions
• Family-Preference Immigrant Visas
• Adjustment of Status
• U.S. Naturalization (N-400)

Bilingual Korean-English Practice

Like the rest of the firm, Chris practices in Korean and English, so clients can work through sensitive family and immigration questions in their own language — describing their situation fully, without anything lost in translation. For many families, that bilingual, bicultural understanding is exactly why they choose H&H Law: the attorney across the table understands both the legal requirements and the personal context behind the paperwork.

AILA Membership

Chris is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), the national bar association for immigration practitioners, which keeps his practice current with a field that changes constantly. Working within an immigration-only firm lets him concentrate entirely on this area of law rather than dividing his attention across unrelated practice areas — so the counsel he gives is focused and up to date.

At H&H Law, Chris works closely with founding attorney Austin Kim and the firm's team from their office across from the USCIS building in Santa Ana, serving Korean families throughout Orange County and Southern California. Whether a client is petitioning for a spouse, preparing for a naturalization interview, or working through an adjustment of status, Chris brings a steady, bilingual hand to a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
