Youngbin Son

Youngbin represents individuals and corporations in federal and state civil and criminal proceedings as well as in arbitrations. She also assists in conducting internal investigations and responding to regulatory investigations. Her client roster encompasses a wide range of industries, from apparel to food, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, travel, and technology.

As a former associate at two Am Law 50 firms, Youngbin has handled numerous high-stakes cases and investigations for blue chip clients. She couples that experience with a meticulous, detail-oriented approach to provide effective and informed guidance. No matter how large or complex the case, she quickly cultivates a mastery of the facts and applicable law, then constructs a well-supported narrative that furthers her client's objectives.

Youngbin supplements her work at Cohen Williams with an active pro bono practice. She regularly contributes her time to the Inner City Law Center, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that seeks justice for people experiencing homelessness. In 2022, the center recognized Youngbin as a Pro Bono champion for her efforts to help clients get their years-old traffic citations dismissed and their drivers' licenses reinstated. 

Prior to joining the firm, Youngbin was an associate at the New York office of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP and the Los Angeles office of Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP.

Youngbin is a native Korean speaker and is proficient in Japanese.
