Review of Wendy J. Baker, Employment Law Attorney

Wendy has been an outstanding partner for our organization. Not only is her knowledge and expertise in employment law indispensable but she is a great fit for our organization. Her unpretentious manner makes her easy to approach and work with, yet she is never hesitant to provide honest and necessa...ry feedback. Wendy is always thorough and very dedicated to her profession.

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.
