Michael Spencer Chin

Michael and his team were amazing to work with. They thoroughly explained everything, answered emails in a timely fashion, were friendly and generally a pleasure to work with. I hired Michael to help with a relocation to Canada which involved my children. I felt comfortable and prepared. Michael succ...essfully got my relocation granted and lead me through mediation. I could not be more satisfied with the job he did.

I hired Michael after having spent a period of 8 years fighting to keep access to my children. I have been repeatedly accused of abuse by my ex. Michael came aboard when my oldest was completely alienated and two youngest were affected. My oldest is emancipated so nothing could be done there. How...ever, Michael advised a new trial addressing the needs of the other two children and estimated that it would cost about 15000. He immediately identified the most helpful strategy, and quickly brought the case to trial. The results exceeded my expectations and what I was asking the court for. The court understood the problems and found my ex was abusive to me and the children. The court ordered no contact between my ex and the children for 7 months, while she undergoes therapy - an extraordinary result. Parental alienation is a very real but frequently almost impossible to address consequence of divorce. Michael was able to make the situation clear after years of mixed results from other attorneys. In addition he ended up charging very close to his initial estimate, despite the complexity of the case. He has given my family the best possible chance to heal. He is an expert and I wish I had found him years ago. Other attorneys have milked the case for hundreds of thousands of dollars without achieving much more than successfully defending me against untrue allegations.

Michael represented me in a divorce case which included a trial for custody and child support. Michael was patient in explaining processes, plans, steps, reasoning, and details and worked WITH me to get the best Parenting Plan and Child Support Order to fit mine and my child's needs. Michael and his ...staff treated me with patience and compassion during a very difficult time. His rates are reasonable and in accordance with the service I received. Through this attorney, I had a successful trial and was able to keep the majority custody of my child. I would hire him again for future legal purposes. Job well done!

Michael was incredibly helpful with helping me plan my out of state relocation with regards to parenting plan. I have a lot of respect for anyone that isn't all about the money in their profession. I imagine that there are many lawyers that would've just wanted to take as much as they can from their ...clients. Not once did Michael give me that impression. I also didn't imagine someone as positive and enthusiastic as Michael in family law. Thank you sir.

Michael helped me achieve a good resolution to a very bad situation. It became apparent to me that a marital separation was necessary. Michael was willing to take on my challenging case when three other lawyers would not and a fourth lacked the integrity and sensitivity needed for my situation. Mi...chael helped me get an immediate restraining order and separation, then a final divorce. Michael helped me achieve a good outcome during the mediation for a settlement, parenting plan, and child support order. Through the whole divorce process, I found Michael to be honest and committed. I would highly recommend him!
