Caycie Kahiau Gusman Wong

Caycie Kahiau Gusman Wong is a partner at Kobayashi Sugita & Goda in Honolulu, Hawaii, whose practice focuses on commercial and construction litigation. She represents clients in disputes involving business relationships and construction projects. Her work requires analysis of contracts, project records, damages, performance issues, and procedural questions that arise when commercial or construction matters become contested. She also brings formal training in business management, giving her an additional perspective on the organizational and commercial context surrounding many disputes.

Wong earned a law degree cum laude from the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaii and a B.S. in business management cum laude from Rutgers University. During law school, she served as a technical editor of the law review, received a CALI award, and earned Best Advocate recognition in a Native American moot court competition.

Wong has developed her practice around commercial and construction disputes, where cases may involve multiple contracts, project participants, technical records, and competing claims regarding performance or responsibility. Her legal writing, advocacy, and business education support the detailed preparation required for motion practice, negotiation, discovery, and trial-related work in complex civil litigation. That experience supports a practical approach to evaluating facts, managing procedure, and developing strategies suited to the legal issues presented.

Caycie Kahiau Gusman Wong also contributes to the community through board service, including work with the Susannah Wesley Community Center. Her litigation practice combines business awareness with legal analysis and advocacy. She helps clients evaluate contractual and project-related disputes, organize the factual record, assess available claims or defenses, and prepare for negotiated resolution or court proceedings when commercial or construction conflicts arise.
