Professional and patient, thanks!

After being involved in a collision with injury, I did not know what to do at all. Wendy helped me through out the whole process with patience and guidance. Even though the insurance company took a little over a year to settle, Wendy followed up with me every step of the way. Not only is she professi...onal and capable, she is very easy to talk to. I would highly recommend Wendy as your attorney for any situations

A Lawyer With A Heart

When an Insurance Co refused to pay damages on my vehicle against the person insured by them, ATTY CHAU encouraged me to go to small claims. She walked me through the process from filling out the forms and filing the claims. I won the case but to my surprise she waived the lawyers fee. I cannot thank... her enough. The least I can do is to make this review and let people know that there are still lawyers who are willingly to lend a helping hand to people who needs it.

Fantastic Job! Wendy Thank you

Wendy gives her one hundred plus percent when representing us. Although Wendy was a consultant when represented us but she did an excellent job negotiating with the opponent's insurance attorney and got us compensated more than what we expected. Wendy always kept us up to date with the progress and h...ad been very transparent about her work, she bcc: us on all of her emails communications to the other attorney. Wendy’s professional working ethic delivers exceptional results. We were glad and very pleased to have Wendy represented us. We will definitely refer family members and friends to Wendy.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
