Michael Spencer Chin

I'm very satisfied with my case outcome and that's due to Michael's hard work and he's passion for his field of work. When I first started this process I hired a different attorney that did nothing but move paperwork work and seem to not really care about the outcome as long as he got paid. Mic...hael on the other hand pays attention to details, reliable and passionate. I would recommend him to anyone that is dealing with a DUI case. Words cannot explain how thankful I am for his work ethic.

My Relocation case has been successfully closed! I filled my Relocation case in good faith in 60 days before I planned to move with my 12-year-old son to Chicago. I filled all necessary documents with the court including a motion to allow Temporary Relocation with Children before the trial. It happ...ened that court denied my motion and put me to a position without any good options but violate the order and move without court permission. Michael consulted me and we discussed all possible options, outcomes, and consequences. I made a decision to move with my child because I didn't have any other option. I couldn't stay in WA and I couldn't move without my child either. Michael started to prepare all documents for the trial. Luckily Michael was able to settle with the other party through mediation about my relocation and was able to keep me out of contempt! In this case, Michael Chin did everything to turn around my situation to my favor: I am now permitted to relocate with the child, I am able to keep my custody, and I am not in contempt. Last but not list important I didn't have to be involved in this process emotionally, Michael did what needs to be done in a professional manner representing my interests and protecting my rights. Also, he charged me fairly for his work, he always was in touch and available for me if I needed an advice. I am grateful to him and his office assistant and paralegal for all the work they have done! It was a great pleasure to work with you, Michael! I highly recommend hiring Michael Chin. (for good people only)

If it was possible to even give more then 5 stars I would!!!! From the very start, searched for a family law lawyer in the Snohomish county area, googled Michael and made the call. Knowing that this case was going to be rough my husband and I set up the FREE consultation. From the start we knew, that... Michael knew what he was talking about, from the way he listened and was able to explain how the law applied to our case. This was a back and fourth case for my husband, and definitely a headache of a case. Michael handled our case with extreme care, truthfully as if it was his own. I would spend every dime 10x over for Michael without a blink. We had a high litigation mediation, where Michael was able to get a 60/40 split parenting time!!! Which is more then we even expected. Then a back and fourth with dealing with a woman that just continued to make any attempt to keep the child away! Michael never gave up and kept supporting us and doing what he does best!!! Knowing the law and proceeding with the best representation that you can ask for. He doesn't just treat you like your another case, or more $$$, he genuinely cares about his clients. I would recommend Michael to ANYONE and EVERYONE. I have never slept so good knowing that he is on our side. I truly cant speak for others but I would say I feel sorry for whoever goes up against him, HE IS A TRUE work of MAGIC in court!!!

It is my pleasure to write this letter of reference for my attorney, Mr. Michael Chin. Mr. Chin represented me in my modification of an existing parenting plan, which is a complex and difficult thing to navigate and get changed. I began the search on google, looking for a local attorney to assist m...e in modifying my parenting plan. As I spoke to several attorney’s they told me their retainer fee and concluded the conversation by stating once I have that in full we can discuss the details of your case. I then reached Michael Chin. He took his time with me on the phone, never once made me feel rushed. He asked me a few questions to better determine if he could assist me. I know he heard desperation in my voice. I inquired about the retainer, as I thought it was strange he hadn’t mentioned it. As we discussed it he told me he understood my situation and would be willing to work with me to make payment arrangements based on my pay schedule. I met with him soon after. My mind was made up from the rapport over the phone that he was the man for the job. He worked with me in pain-steaking-detail and built what was not “my” case, but in no uncertain terms, “our case”. He was on my team. He had my back! I felt such relief, after all, these were my kids we were fighting for. I knew this was going to be the hardest fright of my life, and he walked me through every step. I think sometimes he was just as much a therapist as a lawyer, showing compassion and attention to every need I had in the process. After being served, my ex-husband approached me to settle out of court. Michael had done his job so well that the other party didn’t want to take a chance in court. Michael spent more time, emails, and made more calls to mediate and work with the other party to get the matter resolved. I took Mr. Chin’s advice and he assured me that settling was a win win. Had my case gone to trial, he stood to make a lot more money from me. His singular focus was what was in my best interest and that never wavered. Even to his detriment, he fought for my kids and I with determination and ethics. The entire process was six months. I often spoke to Mr. Chin multiple times a day, and often late into the evening. Despite the time, he always assisted me and treated me with respect. From the first phone call Michael was professional, patient & helpful. His execution of time sensitive documents was proficient & timely. Mr. Chin kept open and ongoing communication throughout the process. If I could, I would refer everyone I know to Michael Chin as I know the greatest compliment is a referral. I can’t express how grateful I am to have had him in my corner and the resolution we reached was a result of his hard work and dedication for his client. Rikki

Mike Chin was my representation while I went through a custody battle. I had a tough case and he saw it through. See, I am a father Washington State. We had significant amount of evidence showing It was clearly in my son's best interest for him to be residing with me. Even with the GAL 100 percen...t against me, Mike saw all that I had to walk through and stuck by me and my family until the end. My wife and i will recommend Mike Chin and the Chin family to anybody and everybody we meet. They will continue to be our family attorneys if ever needed in the future. Thank you for helping me give my son the best chance in life. I have no doubt that he will have a great life now. I will always be thankful!
