"I wholeheartedly endorse Attorney Mingli Chen. I had the opportunity to work as co-counsel with Attorney Chen for more than three years on a complex federal criminal case. Attorney Chen was patient and compassionate with our client, but tough and tenacious with the prosecutor. He is an excellent negotiator and his efforts saved the client from spending many years in prison. I highly recommend Attorney Chen."
"Mr. Chen is a highly capable attorney committed to providing clients experienced, knowledgeable and aggressive representation. I endorse him without reservation."
"Mingli is an extraordinary attorney who practices law with high ethics and excellent skills. I have referred many clients to him and have always heard great words about him. He truly cares his client’s best interests and represents them wholeheartedly with passion and hard work. Mingli is very talented, but his success is based on his tremendous efforts in addition to his great intelligence. When he represents a client, Mingli examines the facts of all aspects meticulously and thoroughly. His hard work and his exceptional ability in identifying strong and critical evidence for his clients is the foundation for many of his successful stories. Once he masters the facts, he forms creative arguments and presents the evidence in an extremely persuasive manner. As a consequence, Mingli has built up a track record of successful cases for his clients. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mingli and his team. He has been a blessing to many people and will continue to be."
