About Edward T.
Edward T. Kang built his path to law on a foundation of study and steady professional advancement. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Temple University in 1992 and took his J.D. from Villanova University School of Law in 2001. The chronology suggests a period between degrees that informed his early approach to practice, though the record available here does not specify those years in detail.
After law school, Kang entered practice and expanded admissions to a broad array of courts. He is licensed in Pennsylvania and has admitted practice before the U.S. Supreme Court, the Federal Circuit and the Third Circuit. He also holds admission in New York and New Jersey. Those credentials reflect work across both trial and appellate venues and a willingness to pursue matters beyond a single jurisdiction.
Kang’s professional affiliations reflect active engagement in the bar. He maintains memberships in the American Bar Association, the Pennsylvania Bar Association and the Philadelphia Bar Association. He is also a member of the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association. Those memberships often intersect with litigation calendars, appellate work and bar activities in Pennsylvania and neighboring states.
In his practice life, Kang has taken on roles that include firm leadership. He is a managing member of Kang Haggerty LLC. That position places him in the mix of case selection, client counseling and courtroom work. It also means he divides time between supervising other lawyers and handling his own matters. His practice has included litigation and appellate appearances, reflecting the range of his admissions.
Colleagues and opposing counsel describe him as methodical and direct in court. He tends to break complex arguments into discrete threads and to press for clear rulings. In appellate settings he has pursued legal questions that require careful brief writing and an attention to precedent. Those skills align with his ability to appear before federal appellate panels and to file matters in multiple state systems.
Outside the courtroom he participates in bar programs and professional groups. His memberships in national and local associations signal ongoing involvement in professional development and bar governance. He also brings that experience into firm leadership and case strategy.
He practices at Kang Haggerty LLC, where his work spans litigation and appellate matters in state and federal courts. His current practice concentrates on litigation and appellate work across multiple jurisdictions.
