Ryan K. Hew Attorney at Law

This review is waaaay overdue! I just had my first meeting with Ryan because I’m exploring copyright and trademark options for my music brand. What I love so much about Ryan is you feel completely comfortable sharing and you know that he genuinely cares about you as a client. He has a small office on Ward Avenue but it’s easily accessible. Ryan is really great at following up with you in a timely manner and very straightforward in finding solutions for you. I think the #1 you worry about when hiring a lawyer is that they’re going to over bill you or that you’re somehow going to end up with an astronomical bill. If he’s capable of handling your needs he’ll definitely execute in a timely manner and if for any reason he’s not he’ll communicate to you in a professional manner. Great guy, honest human being and you can find him on Twitter via @RKHewEsq!

Ryan is sincere, up-​front and under promises and over delivers with a level of professionalism and Aloha that is hard to find in his industry.

Where does one find a modestly priced attorney to help you start your own business? Your first instinct is to search the internet when word of mouth isn’t as responsive as you’d hope it to be. Nowadays, social media has become the secondary source for gaining referrals to great services online through friends and friends of friends and luckily I was able to come across one who was well read and tweet-​able!
Ryan K. Hew helped me get the ball rolling on starting my own graphic design company for web and print media, making the Domestic Limited Liability Company (LLC) filing process a breeze! He was resourceful in providing me with the proper documentation and following up with the forms I should expect to receive from the State of Hawaii and the IRS regarding the licenses and numbers associated with my business.
Ryan also held talks and seminars to discuss and educate the potential small business owners on the pros/​cons of the different business entity formations, outlining the best options for interested individuals. Whenever I had a question regarding trivial legal issues, he was readily available through social media to set up a quick consultation and come up with a great solution. I’m definitely not quite business savvy since my focus is on art and design, but it was great to have found a personable and helpful small business attorney whose resources knows no bounds. He also recently provides notary services if you are in the market for it.
