Hired Attorney Wendy Chan

I spoke to several different lawyers before finding Wendy Chan. After meeting with her for the very 1st time I knew I was in the best hands I could possibly be in. Every other attorney fed me false hope and were extremely unrealistic in regards to my upcoming hearing for custody. From day one Wendy Chan explained it exactly the way it was and did not sugarcoat anything. There was no false hope given and based on the other reviews I knew she was beyond capable of helping me rescue my daughter from the toxic environment she was in. In court Wendy was nothing shy of absolutely amazing. She is involved emotionally as well and she truly cares for the well being of the people she is representing. Also, in court she alleviates all the stress that you could have possibly had by taking charge and essentially directing traffic in there. You do not have to think about anything you just answer her questions and she does the rest. This woman is a wonderful person. Thank you so much Wendy.

Wendy is a very nice and thoughtful lawyer. The problem is that she does not have the back of the office support and time to individualize the needs of her clients. During my time as her client several very important deadlines and commitments were missed due to errors from her office. I even missed a court hearing once because she was on vacation and her office missed the appropriate paperwork. I am sure she is competent in most matters but if your case goes beyond something simple I would highly advise seeking legal counsel elsewhere.

After I made the mistake of paying Wendy $8k retainer i experienced what qualifies to be the worst lawyer experience which made me decide to dig deep in her very questionable Google reviews as they didn’t match with my experience, I saw the 5-star sales pitch reviews (while some sound legitimate they’re from years ago when she was cheaper and maybe nicer I know because I contacted their owners) then read her Yelp reviews where they are very strict with suspicious sales-pitch reviews (to some of those fake reviewers she answers as if they were real people!)

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
