Phenomenal!!

I've used this attorney for a few corporate endeavors. He was always expeditious, friendly, patient and knew instinctively what I needed to get the job done. I couldn't have been successful without him. He should run for public office because we need stellar ethics and honesty like his in government!...

Pete Wenzel review

I've worked with Pete now for over 12 years, hired him at 4 different companies and recommended him to countless others. He is without a doubt the best and easiest to work with attorney I've ever known. When you're a start up executive, you need an attorney who is responsive, diligent, accurate ...and fast, and has the knowledge and experience to help in in a variety of areas like contracts, labor, M&A and corporate law. Pete brings all that to the table, and has an amazing ability to understand and explain the business impact of legal decisions you need to make. As a Technology exec - It's also really nice that he's a member of both the California and Washington bar.

Pete understands how to work with small businesses and startups

I have worked at two different companies where we required Pete Wenzel's legal services. One was a start up and one was a small business. In both cases, Pete demonstrated an amazing understanding of our business needs and challenges. He worked amazingly quickly, was able to identify several key legal... issues that we had no clue about and was able to give us extremely helpful, responsive advice to all our questions. If ever I have a question about contractual issues, liability or related areas, I call Pete Wenzel first thing. I trust Pete's legal counsel implicitly and would highly recommend him to any business. He has 100% integirty and on top of everything else, he is a delightful human being as well.

Wenzel Review

I've known Pete for over 15 years and have retained his services a number of times. I had Pete listed as a strategic partner for my marketing consulting service because of his experience in the technology world and because I know his attention to customer service and treating clients well matched my ...high expectations. He's a straight shooter and above board person.

Understands my business goals and executes efficiently

Pete prepared key IP documents for my startup iPhone company, in addition to providing more general ongoing legal/business advice. He's worked in a big firm, small firm, and corporate setting, so he has a more "business friendly" approach than any other attorney I've worked with. His extensive e...xperience and knowledge allow him to be very time-efficient, and I've always been able to get him on the phone when I need him. He's a great guy, a super-smart attorney, and a valuable ally. Highly recommended!
